TRANSFORMATION: Coming Spring 2020
Conceptualization
Outer transformation manifests inner metamorphosis.
Change begins when an individual encounters a moment that alters their perspective. What they were and what they knew before feels foreign to them. They are already on the path to becoming a newer better version of themselves. Vulnerable, yet curious, they enter a salon to be greeted by a stylist who will forever morph their life. The stylist works tirelessly like a painter hungry to paint the new Mona Lisa. The process can be long, and mentally trying, especially when the end result is not fully tangible. An inner battle ensues - "did I make the right choice?" Hours later, doubt is erased as a beautiful strong butterfly emerges from the ash. The physical reflecting back instantly sparks a fire within. With this new sense of self comes an overwhelming sigh of relief, and unyielding confidence.
