Hi everyone who came to read this blog written by Koji Kuninaga. I am a hair stylist / Beauty Salon Owner of BB Meme Salon/Photographer in San Diego US. In this blog, I will explain my idea of hair designing  [Less distorted hair designing] using [Bone Structure and Hair Flow Corrective Method

こんにちは皆さん、ブログにたどり着いた皆さん。私は2005年に渡米して、アメリカはサンディエゴの美容室BB Meme Salonを開業、現在二店舗のオーナであり、ヘアスタイリスト、そしてプロフォトグラファー日々活躍中です。このブログでは、私のヘアーデザインのアイデア「Less Distorted Hair Designing」を、「骨格構造と毛流れ補正法」を使って説明していきます。

Nature’s Dance at the Grand Canyon

Sitting atop a cliff at the Grand Canyon, I found myself witnessing a remarkable display of nature’s grace and power. As I gazed over the vast landscape, clouds began to gather above the Colorado River, darkening the sky. Lightning sparked within the storm clouds, illuminating the scene with brief, electrifying flashes. Then, as if orchestrated by an unseen hand, rain began to fall—not in a single sheet, but in distinct, twisting rain poles, like water poured from a giant, invisible faucet.

Each rain pole seemed perfectly aligned, drenching the river below in a mesmerizing pattern. It was as if the storm itself was paying homage to the river, each drop of rain returning to its source. This display of aligned rain poles, so precisely and beautifully positioned along the river’s path, felt like witnessing nature’s deliberate choreography.

The Forces That Carve the Canyon

As I watched, I realized this scene was not just a random act of weather but a glimpse into the forces that have shaped the Grand Canyon over millennia. The region’s unique geography makes it a meeting point for cold, mist-laden air from the ocean  and warm air coming from the higher altitudes desert. This collision of high and low pressure systems leads to frequent and intense rainfall, which relentlessly carves into the land, sculpting the vast, winding canyons that define this landscape.

This process of erosion—where water, time, and gravity work together—has created the deep and twisting canyons that reveal the earth’s ancient secrets layer by layer. It’s a testament to the enduring power of natural forces that can, over time, wear down even the mightiest of rocks.

A Reminder of Nature’s Interconnectedness

Living on the coast in San Diego, I’m reminded that the water flowing in the Colorado River, which carved the Grand Canyon, eventually finds its way to us. This life-giving water, essential to our daily lives, begins its journey in the clouds, often carried from far-off places like California. The rain that falls in the canyon and along the river’s path is part of a vast cycle, connecting distant landscapes in an intricate dance of evaporation, condensation, and precipitation.

Witnessing this grand natural spectacle was a humbling reminder of how interconnected our environment is. The very water that sustains us in San Diego originates in faraway places, carried by winds and weather patterns that shape the land and nourish our lives. It’s a powerful illustration of the delicate balance of nature and the unseen threads that connect us all.

**グランドキャニオンにおける自然の舞踏**

グランドキャニオンの崖の上に座っていると、自然の優雅さと力強さが見事に表現されているのを目撃しました。広大な景色を見渡すと、コロラド川の上に雲が集まり、空が暗くなり始めました。雷が嵐の雲の中で閃き、シーンを一瞬で電撃的に照らしました。そして、見えない手によって指揮されているかのように、雨が降り始めました。それは一枚のシートのようではなく、巨大で見えない蛇口から水が注がれるように、川に沿った雨の柱が何本も形成されていました。

それぞれの雨の柱は完璧に整列し、下の川直接注ぎ込み台地を濡らしました。まるで嵐そのものが川に敬意を表しているかのようで、雨の一滴一滴がその源に戻っていくように感じられました。この整列した雨の柱の見た時、自然の意図的な現象を目撃しているかのようでした。

**キャニオンを彫刻する力**

この光景を見ていると、これは単なる天気の気まぐれな行為ではなく、グランドキャニオンを何千年もかけて形作った力の一端を垣間見ているのだと気づきました。この地域の独特の地形は、高知からの冷たい霧を含んだ空気と、内陸の砂漠からの冷たい空気が交わる地点です。この高低圧システムの衝突が頻繁で激しい降雨を引き起こし、土地を容赦なく削り、広大で曲がりくねったキャニオンを形成しています。

この浸食のプロセスは、水、時間、重力が密接に働き、深くて曲がりくねったキャニオンを作り出し、地球の古代の秘密を一層ずつ明らかにしています。これは、長い年月をかけて最も強大な岩石さえも削り取る自然の力の証です。

**大自然の循環機能**

サンディエゴの海岸に住んでいると、グランドキャニオンを彫刻したコロラド川の水が最終的に私たちのところに届くことを思い出します。この生命を与える水は、私たちの日常生活に不可欠で、雲から始まり、カリフォルニアのような遠くの場所から運ばれてきます。キャニオンや川の沿道に降る雨は、蒸発、凝縮、降水という広大なサイクルの一部であり、遠くの風景を複雑に結びつけるダンスを形成しています。

この壮大な自然の光景を目の当たりにすることは、私たちの環境がどれほど相互に結びついているかを謙虚に思い出させてくれました。サンディエゴで私たちを支える水は、遠くの場所で始まり、風や天気のパターンによって運ばれ、土地を形作り、私たちの生活に栄養を与えます。これは、自然の微妙なバランスと私たちをつなぐ見えない糸の力強い営みの例です。

Understanding the Tornado Effect in Hair Growth

The cowlick or “tornado” pattern in hair growth often occurs in areas where there’s a dip or uneven surface on the scalp, such as the nape of the neck, where there’s no bone structure but rather a combination of muscles and tendons. This lack of structural support creates inward distortions, and the hair growth reflects these irregularities, much like how air currents twist and spin around in tornadoes and typhoons.

If you visualize the head with a grid, you can easily spot the high and low points where hair growth changes direction. Hair growing from the high points often springs up, while hair from the lower areas grows downward and tries to push upward as it follows the contours of the scalp. This creates a complex interplay of forces within a small, tubular-like space, with hair strands from various angles interacting and often clashing with one another, similar to the chaotic swirl of a tornado.

This pattern is particularly noticeable in children whose muscles are not fully developed, resulting in deeper indentations and more pronounced cowlicks. In adults, especially males, these dents may be shallower, but the “tornado” effect still plays out as hair strands continue to move in conflicting directions.

Strategies to Tame the Tornado:

1. Mapping the Hair Growth Pattern: Start by carefully examining the growth pattern of your client’s hair. Use a grid approach in your mind, focusing on high and low points on the scalp. This mapping will help you identify the direction in which the hair naturally flows or conflicts, giving you a clearer understanding of where the “tornado” is happening.
2. Strategic Sectioning: When cutting hair in these complex areas, consider creating sections that respect the natural flow of hair. Over-direct sections to balance the visual weight and control the movement of hair. Be mindful of how each section interacts with the next; this can help you manage how the hair settles.
3. Control the Launching Angle: Just like wind direction in a tornado, controlling the launching angle of each hair section is crucial. By adjusting the cutting angle, you can influence how the hair lays, mitigating unwanted lifts or awkward fall patterns that might look untidy or unbalanced.

“Level the hight then it is on the leveled pressure.”

“Push away from the center of the Typhoon.

 Then, become balanced density”

It would be nice if we can fix turbulence like this right?
