Abstract

This study attempted to develop hair accessories based on the meaning of birth stone. For this, they were designed with birth stone, considering the fact that people want to have their own uniqueness. Specifically, hair accessories which can be kept for a long time were created after making flowers with hair. For birth stone representing each season (spring, summer, fall, winter), amethyst (February), diamond (April), pearl (June), peridot (August), opal (October) and turquoise (December) were chosen. Then, hair accessories were modeled after making flowers. The goals of this study are to meet people’s desire to stay unusual with birth stone and make valuable accessories with such birth stone by recycling hair. With an understanding of the meaning of birth stone, proper images were designed. Then, after creating a frame for modeling with silver yarn, birth stone was glued. The flowers made with hair were twisted with silver yearn and attached. The above results confirm that even though it is special to make such accessories manually, there might be many difficulties for mass production. It is anticipated that in order for birth stone and hair to be used as hair art in daily life, picture frames, accessories, daily necessities and up-cycle items would be commercialized. In addition, this study proposes designs in diverse, sensory colors for aesthetic art pictures created with hair, not just conventional paintings painted by painters.
