Blue
Ukiyo-e is an art form that covers woodblock prints and hand-painted works of color printing depicting characters, landscapes, and daily life.
Through this art, modern people can understand how the Japanese lived, and it is also through this that we can fully appreciate this striking and lively shade of blue through an effortless hairstyle.

Purple
As a recognition of the honour system in Ancient Japan where the highest ranking royal owned the colour purple, it belonged solely to the royals – until the people claimed it back during the Meiji period.
Lucky for us that it is now free for all, because without it we couldn’t have developed this classy yet outstanding shade that represents your crowning glory.

Orange/Green
Proudly representing the identity of Japanese clans, this light yet stunning colour combination is inspired by the nobles’ choices of patterns and colours for their families.
By translating these elements into hair artistry, Unique Expired successfully brings back the importance of this tradition known as mon (紋), also monshō (紋章), mondokoro (紋所), and kamon (家紋) into modern times.

Yellow
Ka-Bu-Ki from left to right, means sing (歌), dance (舞), and skill (伎). Kabuki is therefore sometimes translated as "the art of singing and dancing", and is artfully represented by this cheerful and refreshing shade of yellow.
Dance the night away with a swish of your effortless locks, and embody the spirit of Kabuki.
