IWATA, Toshiyasu

Angelica

I feel that the boundary between Realitive and Avant garde has become vague. At the Realitive , we carefully judge from the perspective of how we can make use of the individuality of the models. New avant-garde works with pop colors were visible this year.

URA, Sayaka

otope

I love looking at Avant garde works! It is fun because one is able to feel each culture. Although Realitive is becoming banal, the quality is improving year over year, so then it is expected that originality will improve.

OBAYASHI, Hiroyuki

ASCH

At this year's Realitive, the work styles that expressed the model's character were striking. The Avant garde with different designs from last year were fascinating. The quality has risen UP. Please think on a total basis and boldly challenge yourself.

OKAMURA, Takahisa

MINX

Variations in designs have increased since last year. The level for the Avant garde department in particular was high and was well received. Idea + freedom as a hairdresser will be needed next year. With the Realitive, the wet designs of black hair have decreased and has become more versatile.

OMURA, Junko

ACQUA

The level has been rising every year, and I have enjoyed looking at many designs that I would not have thought of myself. While it is the Realitive department, there were many works from the Avant garde side, and vice versa. It would nice if the Avant garde can further follow through.

KIMURA, Naoto

air

The level is high because it is the largest photo contest, but it would be nice to be able to differentiate between Realitive and Avant garde. The trends in Realitive have become similar, and I also wanted to see natural designs. However, they were all wonderful works.

KOJO, Takashi

DADA CuBiC

The level is indeed high! It is important how to feel and express "the current Realitive". It would be nice if the cut design increases. In the Avant garde department, instead of the processing and photographic expressions. I felt that creations as a beautician were important,

KOBAYASHI, Tomohiro

kakimoto arms

In recent years, the photographic expressions had a strong creative element. I have expectations for Realitive for works with a composition where the hair design will be more eye-catching. Are there many ways to interpret avant-garde = decadence? I think it may be fine to be conscious of clean beauty.

KOMATSU, Atsushi

HEAVENS

Realitive has become the expression standard for Japanese hairdressers. On the other hand, with Avant garde is in its second year, I sense there is some doubt in the works. However, there is significance in doing it. In the future, we need an environment that makes it easier for the new generations to pursue challenges.

KOMATSU, Toshiyuki

ANTI

Realitive is real × creative. For ladies walking in the city, there were many works with strong creative colors to the extent they may feel uncomfortable. Based on the current worldly view, I felt that Avant garde is in the age of "Real avant garde".

SHIGEMORI, Masayoshi

Rougy

The Realitive quality exceeded expectations. However, as works that are not real style stood out, establishing a clear border with Avant garde is a future task. It seems Avant garde is weak, so I would like to see more cutting edge works!

TAKAHASHI, Masaki

ELENA

In comparison to the last few years, the level of the Realitive department is very high. I feel the burning passion of those who enter. On the contrary, the Avant garde seems to have no defined direction because of the wide range of expressions. I look forward to daring designs.

TAMAKI, Asuka

snob

At the Realitive, comfortable works that fit the models have been selected. Also, lighting and camera works that draws out wonderful hair is important. It will be interesting if with Avant garde, rather than processing, there is an increase in the number of works that make up the hairstyle itself.

CHIKA

artifata

The cut, color, sense, etc. of the Realitive department approaches the beautician's origins and many good works have been collected. There are few works that are completely new in Avant garde, but some designers have aggressive pursued the cut to the limits, and I am fond of such spirits.

TSUKAMOTO, Shigeru

K-two

It feels like overall the works have become banal. It will be positive for Realitive if new works with both hair and photos are developed and there is an increase in the number of works that have never been seen. Avant garde can be more aggressive, I hope the one will challenge towards combinations, forms, and textures of original hair. .

DOBASHI, Hayato

DIFINO

As the overall level has risen, while it is difficult to bring out the individuality, but among them, there were many works that draw out the goodness of the model, leading to an impact without getting cluttered. Avant garde is become a more creative effort.

FUKUI, Tatsumasa

PEEK-A-BOO

The Realitive department was well received. It leads to skill improvement of the hairstylist. I was fascinated by the calculated detailed movement of the hair tips. The Avant garde department based on the work regulations, seems to have had more works that are closer to Realitive.

MIYAMURA, Hiroki

AFLOAT

Perhaps it was because the quality of the Realitive works rose, the quality of the Avant garde works was not felt so much. The Realitive department has a lot of great designs overall, so it may be possible to make the people of the world cool.

YAMAMOTO, Mariko

LILI

I think it is difficult to create a hairstyle and a view of the world based on the word “Realitive", but there are many well-mixed works and the level is getting higher. The Avant garde works had many extensions of Realitive, but I felt that the quality was higher than last year.
