DA LOGO
The most versatile of all the icons - and inspired by The Mona Cut logo - this shape creates volume at the top through angles, providing an overall heart or diamond shape.
DA TRI
The most dramatic of all icons - it transforms the lifeless "triangle" shape, feared by many curly haired clients, into the updated bob
DA CALLA
This icon is an adjusted curly pixie - taper transitions into longer lengths at the top creating a bell-like shape that draws the eye to the face.
DA CHRYS
This icon provides an ethereal feel, with the focal point being a halo-like burst of volume around the head.
