]]> Hairstylist Janine Ker says she was conscious from a young age of hair’s powerful connection to identity and self-expression. “In my last year of high school, we had to complete a Senior Project – I chose haircutting for mine,” she recalled in an interview with Infringe. “I taught myself the basics of cutting hair from a book, then proceeded to cut my friends’ hair, as well as my own, for the next 13 years. As an artist, cutting hair and treating it as a fibre came very naturally to me. I didn’t actually go to Cosmetology school until I was 30!”

With haircutting coming almost naturally to her, it makes sense that she made a career out of it. Nowadays, she’s mostly known for her rainbow-colored buzzcuts, with her designs taking over Instagram slowly but surely. “I tend to gravitate toward floral patterns (no matter how hard I try not to),” she admits.

“I am also very, very nostalgic. I grew up in the 80s (hence my love for geometric fashion) and the 90s, surrounded by residual 70s references,” she added. “So I have found myself inspired by era color schemes I remember from when I was 10: a vintage blouse I bought at a Thrift Store, down to my best friend’s grandmother’s armchair.”

Indeed, there’s an air of nostalgia about her haircuts – a sort of ’80s dream come to life in the form of a buzzcut. But if you want to join in on the hype, beware! With tens and thousands of fans you’ll want to book a haircut well in advance. In the meanwhile, enjoy her hairstyles from afar.

]]> NYC hairstylist Masami Hosono has a simple idea: treating male and female haircuts as one and the same.“Starting April, I am equalizing women and men’s haircut,” she wrote on her Instagram page. “They will both be $80.” Little did she know that her one post would spiral into something like a hair movement.

“It’s really diverse in a spectrum of preference! Many of my clients also identify gender neutral or transgender so… the aim is a gender-neutral salon,” she wrote. And so the Vacancy Project began, catering to both men and women.

“I wanted to do a gender-neutral hair salon,” said the hairstylist in an interview with i-D Magazine. “I think [everywhere] will be all gender-neutral in the future,” she said. “I don’t want to give someone a hairstyle just because it’s trendy,” Hosono stressed.
