I feel like it tells a story.

我覺得顏色訴說著故事。

When I look at colors like in a painting, I think automatically, can I put that on a head?

當我看到不同色彩，像是在一幅畫作上，我馬上會想，我可以把這個顏色放在頭上嗎？

My name is Daniel Moon, and I'm a hair colorist.

我是 Daniel Moon，我是個染髮師。

I first started getting into hair when I was in the Marine Corps.

我第一次接觸頭髮這個行業是在美國海軍陸戰隊裡。

I barbered myself and other friends.

我為自己與其他弟兄理髮。

I was granted permission to exit the Marine Corps to go to hair school.

我被獲准離開美國海軍陸戰隊進入髮藝學校。

Being so restricted in the military, I think getting out of it, there were no limits.

在軍隊裡處處受限制，離開後，我覺得一切都沒有限制了。

Restriction was enforced on me, so when it came to creating, I had a vow that I'd never restrict myself from doing something that I felt like I wanted to and somehow came up with this magic way of coloring hair.

之前被強加了許多約束，所以當我創作的時候，我發誓絕不限制自己去做想做的事，而不知怎麼地我就創造出了這種魔法般的染髮術。

So freehand hair coloring is looking at the head as a canvas.

手工染髮就是將頭皮當成畫布。

Whether it's short hair or long hair, being able to just paint on it as if it was a sculpture.

不論是短髮還是長髮，都要能把它們當作雕像來創作。

I find inspiration everywhere.

我從各處汲取靈感。

I look to the art world; I look to the magazine world; I look in books; I look where people don't think about looking.

我參考藝術界、雜誌界、出版界，也參考人們根本不會想到要看的地方。

When I'm choosing colors and designs I imagine like a checkerboard.

當我在挑色與設計時，我把頭皮想成一個棋盤。

This purple is here, this red is here.

紫色在這格，紅色在這格。

Can I connect this color to that color?

我能把這顏色連結到那顏色嗎？

I'm looking at it from every angle.

從每個角度來看它。

Top, bottom, left, right, and then just playing with those different kind of shapes.

頂部、底部、左邊、右邊，就是在不同頭型上揮灑。

I don't think about being different from other hair stylists.

我沒想過要和其他髮型師不同。

I create work that is different for me; it's different from my last piece.

我創造對我來說不同的作品，與我上一件作品不同的作品。

I think people dye their hair to have fun-to create a persona that's fun to live in.

我認為人們染髮是為了有趣與創造一個使生活有趣的外表形象。

Did some big color changes and had some great collaborations with Madonna, Katy Perry, Nicole Richie, and Zoe Kravitz.

我與一些明星，如瑪丹娜、凱蒂．佩芮、妮可．李奇與柔伊．克拉維茲有過愉快的合作，幫她們做了一些大改造。

The work that I create is temporary, and that is a romantic thing.

我創造的作品是暫時性的，而這是件浪漫的事。

Because it fades away, hair grows out, I can spend three hours, six hours on a piece, and then it could walk out the door, and then it's never seen again.

頭髮會褪色也會生長，我可能花了三到六個小時在一件作品上，而當他們走出店門，就再也不會見到那件作品。

I like that it's an art form that washes away.

我喜歡這是種會消散的藝術形式。

I'd like to just continue on creating and just making something that I've never seen before.

我想要繼續創作連我自己都沒看過的作品。
