A progression through hair color and time is the theme of Petra Mechurová's red-haired collection. The hues explore gleaming shades of red, from copper to deep burgundy. Red hasn’t been this alluring since the days of Rita Hayworth.
With her hairstyles, Mechurová takes us on a journey through decades, from the 1970s to today, distilling the highlights of trend haircuts into their essence and giving them a 21st-century makeover. Eclectic, ethereal, and romantic, with a dose of spice and a fairy tale made of hair, is born.
Ring of Curls
A beautiful wreath always has an air of something special and festive. With a round of large curls and a flat, sleek, and close-fitting top, this creation recalls a famous hairstyle from the 1970s.
The new version features a longer fringe, cut to follow the outline of her eyes and fit right along the upper curve of her cheekbones before smoothly blending into the frothy delight of the luxuriously curled sides and back.
The hair color is a golden copper tint with a cinnamon note. This type of red can be an easy transition if you’ve never had red hair before and don’t want to go to extremes just yet.
Thick Fringe for Red Hair
Hairstyles in the 1980s were dominated by thick, full fringes combined with sides styled to the back. Petra Mechurová's interpretation retains these elements but loosens them up, adding much more movement to the hair. Deconstructed curls boost the volume of the fringe, which is generous, opulent, and diagonal.
A choppy, fuzzy, and very short textured section adds a spunky accent to the side before the back hair flows longer again in the unique shape of these disrupted waves. Finger-styling and just a hint of makeup keep this look for red hair refreshing and feisty.
Done and Undone with Asymmetry
The fringe is the sleekest and straightest part of this short hairstyle, barely covering her eyebrows. The sides are cut like a short bob with a few layers and a small shift to one side. The difference in length between both sides is only about an inch, but the effect is significant and brings instant flamboyance to the haircut.
Curls are partially well-defined, with some leisurely pulled out for a longer section in the front. The hair falls lightly and very wispy. The sheer playfulness of the cut and styling is balanced by the rich burgundy color with its deep, heavy nature.
Punk Style for Red Hair
Chopped punk hairstyles have found their rightful place among the classics of hair fashion, and one cannot imagine life without them anymore. They are expressive, fun, and practical, with the ease of wash-and-wear looks. However, the better the haircut, the better it will fall, and this fine example plays with some interesting new elements.
The top and back are cut to the same length, but the sides are much shorter, except for a small, thin rim around the ear, with a feathery contrast in length once again. All doused in a Merlot color with a kiss of copper on the edges, this look will surely set you apart.
Red Curls
Curls and geometry are having a party! There is no hangover, just a hairstyle that combines romance, contemporary style, and a hint of vintage charm.
The top is almost vertical, with the corners of the sides jutting out in clear and symmetrical angles on both sides. They then narrow down to the ears before the hair spreads out again in free form over the shoulders.
This can be achieved by tying some of the side hair of the curly mane to the back and carefully shaping the top section. The burned copper color is a great touch for this.
