INTERVIEWS

we could interview hair dressers and get their opinions on hair colours and how many people get their hair dyed when they come in to get their hair cut. We can ask them what personalities they see every day and if they think different hair styles and colours have an effect on personality.

STEREOTYPES

we could create a reconstruction of someone being bullied because of their hair colour. We can record vox pops of people saying the first word that comes to their head when we mention a hair colour such as blonde, ginger, brown.

HAIR STYLES OVER THE YEARS

for example in the 60’s a ‘beehive’ was a popular hair style, in the 70’s a quiff was a popular hair styles, in the 80’s punk hairstyles were most popular e.g. Mohawks, bright colours like pink and red.

HAIR DYE

we could look at what colours people dye their hair most, like bleaching it or adding colours and highlights, and how this effects people and effects their hair.

CELEBRATIES

we could look at celebrities who have bright, dyed hair such as P!nk and we can also look at celebrities who prove stereotypes wrong, like Vanessa Feltz because she is blonde, but is clever and isn’t a stereotypical beauty like people assume blondes are.

HAIR LOSS

we could ask interviewee if they are particularly worried about hair loss, do they think they will lose their hair, will it effect their lives in any way.

ARCHIVE MATERIAL

we could use the music video for “Five colours in her hair” by McFly as it is relevant to the subject, or we could use it as the song we play underneath the narrative. We could use footage from TV, music videos or Movies of the celebrities we mention like P!nk and Vanessa Feltz. We could also use YouTube videos.

CUTAWAYS

we could use images of popular hair styles as we bring them up. We could use the archive material we get during our cutaways as well. Still images of people getting hair cut and images of barbour shops and hairdressers.
