Weekend Hashtag Project: #WHPhairplay

Weekend Hashtag Project is a series featuring designated themes and hashtags chosen by Instagram’s Community Team. For a chance to be featured on the Instagram blog, follow @instagram and look for a post announcing the weekend’s project every Friday.

The goal this weekend is to take creative photos and videos featuring creative hairdos and facial hair. Some tips to get you started:

• Keep your setting in mind as you stage your shot. On a windy day, the breeze moving through long hair can lend itself to beautiful video portraits — especially if filmed in slow motion.
• Sharpen your street photography skills and keep an eye out for interesting hairstyles in the wild. Snap from afar or respectfully approach and ask to take a portrait. Or, if you can’t find anything interesting, get creative. Grab a willing friend and break out the hairspray to see what you can create.
• Finally, as with all photos of people, keep light in mind as you shoot. Take advantage of an overcast sky or nearby window for softer portrait light, or go out into direct sun for bold shadows.

PROJECT RULES: Please add the #WHPhairplay hashtag only to photos and videos taken over this weekend and only submit your own photographs and videos to the project. If you include music in your video submissions, please only use music to which you own the rights. Any tagged image or video taken over the weekend is eligible to be featured Monday morning.
