With 19 years of experience, Jaimie Rankin was a great addition to the Curious Salon team for Hair Wars. As Head Instructor of NIIMD, Rankin teaches that a face is a display of art. Inspirations for Rankin’s art come from her dreams of creating extravagant looks for Cirque du Soliel, so it was not surprising to see stunningly detailed makeup work showcased in the show for Curious.
Rankin had only one week to prep her students for their first time to showcase their work on a stage. ”My students did a phenomenal job. I’m so proud”, says Rankin. Using air brushing, gems, textures, and bright colors, Rankin’s team sculpted fashion editorial versions of favourite Disney’s princesses and villains. The looks were boldly strong and matched the overall look of each Disney character.
