Directions Educator Nickiey shows you step-by-step how to create a rainbow Mohawk with a leopard print buzz cut using Directions hair colours.

Our newest masterclass: Punk Pride

June is one of the most inspirational times of year for us in the hair and beauty industry; we have the blooming colours of spring, the month of Pride, and it's the start of summer! So, we thought there was no better time to launch our next masterclass, to get your hair ready for the brightest season of the year.

Whether you're a client, professional or at-home colourist, we know this look will give you a rainbow of inspiration that's needed for the hottest months of the calendar.

Let's waste no time in introducing our newest masterclass... Punk Pride.

Meet barber and Directions Educator Nickiey Waller at her home in Cliffords Barber Shop. Nickiey and model (willing victim) Clifford are here to show you how to apply 8 prideful shades in the recommended way for Directions' vegan colours.

Watch on to be taken through step-by-step on how to get the best Mohawk in the alternative scene, with an added leopard print buzz cut, including the products you need to do so:

How to create our punk-powered mohawk

The results that Nickiey has achieved show us how simple it can be to express yourself when applying the right technique. Unlocking her colour creativity with our conditioning formula gave Collin's hair a clean spectrum of hues and an easily styleable finish.

Each top tip and recommendation given is key in achieving a successful, vivid combination. So, if you're feeling inspired to try this yourself, you can refer to our How-To Guides for easy reading access.

The eight featured shades of Apricot, Atlantic Blue, Bright Daffodil, Dark Tulip, Flamingo Pink, Neon Red, Spring Green and Violet are perfect in creating a vibrant and bold mix, but with our range of 46 cruelty-free hair colours, there are endless punky shades that you can choose from.

Just remember:

Perform a skin patch test and strand test
Wear protective clothing and gloves
Apply colours in neat sections and rinse with cool water to lower the risk of colour bleeding

Don't wait any longer. Join the trendiest scene with a Punk Pride-inspired look!
