Man Creates Amazingly Intricate Colorful Hairstyles And Here Are 49 Of His Best Works
If fairytales had hairstylists, Alejandro Lopez would be the first in line. The 21-year-old who was born in New Jersey currently lives in Orlando, Florida, has only been in the hair industry for about two years but it was enough for him to master braiding and coloring.
From crochet to fishtail braids, and beyond. You name it, Lopez has done it all. And he's constantly experimenting in style and scope, too.
"I've always loved color I love being able to use all the colors in the rainbow to create something magical," Lopez told Bored Panda. "[When it comes to braiding], it's definitely what I'm more known for in the industry—for my unique and intricate work. I really let my imagination take over and I push myself to create content that makes me happy and inspires others."

Placement I think is definitely what I think about most whenever I braid now, the Balance of it is very important. Sometimes less is more sometimes more is more you just have to have an eye for small details. This wig is from @weekendwigs and its 30inchs !! I’m obsessed and love it so much !!! For a finishing product I used @stylefactor_edge wigout hair shine spray for some nice shine and I think it worked amazing. As always let me know what you all think I love hearing your thoughts always

For this look I was going for more fantasy, dreamy very girly. I created this with 4 strand braids and substituted one of the strands with this white mesh material, the bows are handmade by myself as well with a total of 9 bows. In between the 4 strand braids are your traditional 3 strand braids I intertwined with pearls to give it some pop. This wig is from @uniwigs and for styling products I used my @randco flexible hairspray to hold the braids together

Really can’t believe it. I thought the most fitting way to close it out would be to create the final creation on the wig that started it all, my heart is full, full of happiness. When I look back on all the hard work ive put into all my work, all I can do is smile and think about how far I have come as an artist, as a hairdresser and as a person I’ve poured my heart out and have literally dedicated my life to this industry and to my clients. I have my head held high submitting this final entry to @oneshothairawards and I wish good luck to everyone who has entered as well and I thank you all for all the support and love. I can’t wait to continue to create more art for you all. Thank you ! As always definitely let me know what you think of this look

The other day I put up a poll on my story of the top 6 that never made the cut and asked which one deserves to be recreated and here is the remake ! I wanted to change it up by converting it into a ponytail style vibe to give more drama towards the bottom and did fluffed out twist braids instead of pull throughs but I love the outcome ! This wig is from @uniwigs amazing quality and color !!
