Over one hundred hand picked models will turn heads as they glide the catwalk this month sporting slinky slips of inky black hair, puffballs of tufted hair clumps and pomaded masterpieces. The Ramani Fernando Sunsilk Hair Academy’s annual graduation show will present the trendiest hair fashion looks in cut, colour and style.

Titled Hair Art 2009, the event will introduce new hairstyling techniques and trends in cutting, shaving and moulding hair into signature and statement styles. The show is a presentation of skills by the graduating students of the academy where eighty of them will compete in more of an art show than a test of salon skills. Produced by well known show producer and choreographer Senaka De Silva, Hair Art 2009 promises to be a spectacular event.

Sunsilk’s philosophy of ‘Make Life Happen’ empowers young people to take control of their lives and Sunsilk’s partnership with Ramani Fernando in the Hair Academy equips them with the necessary know-how to embark on a career in the industry. The Sunsilk – Ramani Fernando partnership is a perfect fit given that Sunsilk is a leader in the hair care arena and Ramani herself is highly acclaimed as an expert in beauty with a passion for style and technique.
