Hair Fair 2024 – High V No.Match

This video wasn’t planned to be long, but things happened! It gave me the opportunity to showcase two truly amazing exclusives at this year’s Hair Fair.

The video came together thanks to the incredible Perfect Cut Stylist Chair by High V – there are colour options and it is so much fun. While the styling animations are designed for larger hairstyles, as the chairs are a collaboration with Unorthodox, things worked out perfectly to again feature the No.Vanity hair set system by No.Match in more detail.

One of the important things when making a video – and this was meant to be a quick one – is that you can’t just add some great music and be done with it. You have to make sure the music you add is allowed, or you lose your content off YouTube, etc. That’s fair; I respect that and have no real issue with it.

I wasn’t going to talk – shock horror, I know! – but I wasn’t really feeling the allowed music available. Then, I remembered I had tried Suno, an AI music generator, a few months ago when trying to make my Mum nuts with some made-up Irish music. (She tortured me for years as a kid, so it was payback time!)

I opened it back up and came up with an idea, pressed generate, and got a really sweet song with music… but it wasn’t good enough. Because now that I had this thought, it had to be something really fun. Then, this happened, and it honestly captures everything about those Hair Moments we all experience: the way a new do can really change things for you, how looking after yourself and your hair can make a big difference in so many ways. And I truly feel that Hair Creators and Hair-related Creators give us that same joy in Second Life all the time… even more so every year during Hair Fair. Because of their kindness and generosity by giving to Wigs for Kids from their creations, they not only give us fabulous Hair and Hair Items but also a real sense of community.
I fell in love with the song making this, it is fantastic – to me – and it feels like an anthem for Hair Fair ♥.
This also gave me the chance to use the new Mirror features on the SL default Viewer. Thanks so much to Gogo of JuicyBomb.com for making available already made mirrors and some lovely EEP settings to use with them. I actually used the mirror in the doorframe of a backdrop to create a framed mirror look for my made up salon.

You have a few days left of Hair Fair 2024, so remember every item sold at the event donates a percentage to Wigs for Kids.
