Meliae
Inspiration: Nature and mythology were the driving forces
behind the Meliae collection, which showcases the beauty of
textured tresses. "In Greek mythology, 'Meliae' was the name
given to the nymphs that inhabited the ash tree," explains
Meleesa Luna, Neuma national design team member. "To
complement this idea, we shot outside for a wild, Game of
Thrones feel! The texture of the hair was made to mimic the
texture of the wood bark. The gold leaf mimics fairy dust for an
ethereal feel."
