Expert Tip
Achieving true 'photo-real' detail requires an incredibly steady hand and excellent magnification. Work in thin layers, gradually building up depth and texture, and don't rush the process for this level of intricate work.

Can I customize the specific tools depicted?
Absolutely! We encourage clients to bring in ideas for their favorite tools or even their salon's logo to make the 'work' truly personal and unique.

Lighter, neutral bases like nude, white, or light gray provide the best contrast for the fine details of the tools to truly stand out.
How can I ensure the tools look truly 'photo-real'?
It's all about mastering light and shadow. We use multiple shades to create depth and dimension, mimicking how light interacts with real-world objects.
