The document provides inspiration for hair color trends from the surrealist art movement for the year 2009. It includes three hair color looks directly inspired by surrealist artworks: Salvador Dalí's painting "The Persistence of Memory" which inspired a look with melting hair; René Magritte's painting "Le Tombeau des Lutteurs" which inspired a dress-like color placement; and Man Ray's photograph "Glass Tears" which inspired sharp contrast between hair and background. The document also provides the color formulas and application instructions to recreate the looks.
3. Inspired by the works of
Logics took inspiration from Magritte’s Le Tombeau des
Lutteurs with the rose-inspired dress that epitomized
the simplistic larger-than-life style of his work. The
background mimics the traditional 3 dimensional box
and sky motifs that characterize many of Magritte’s
works, including Les Valeurs Personnelles and The Son of
Man, among others.

4. Inspired by
the works of
Reminiscent of Dalí’s most famous painting, The Persistence of
Memory, the melting hair inspiration directly correlates to the
clocks. The harsh landscape and barren trees are typical of Dalí’s
paintings, including Swans Reflecting Elephants. The female form
was a recurring theme throughout his works, appearing hidden in
other objects as well as a mirage in his bizarre wilderness.
