Here is my entry. You are an upscale shop, then you should look like one. The look and feel I was going for was similar to the high end Mens shave shops that are opening in large cities. (reference "The Art of Shaving" New York).
This is designed so it an work in any color combination, I picked a rich Burgundy jewel tone for the background with a tan or cream for the second color.
The "W & N" in the middle are wavy and curled to represent Hair. I was going to have the "W" look like a mustache, but it would have been to difficult to have work together with the letter N ... so I thought the traditional sizzors at the bottom a was better option
Any colors you'd like to see, is there is any colors you like? it would be my pleasure to give you some new color options,
If I remain in the top 5, I will come up with some new colors and post them for you. (only top 5 selections can post revisions after open phase is done). I will also post Black & White versions for you.
The reason I went with color to start with is because the black (as a main color) starts to look a little like a Tatoo Parlor or Motorcycle shop which is fine, but certinally not upscale. The "deeper-rich masculine" colors help you come across to the general public as more classy establishment and upscale.
Sorry for taking long to get back to you. I just seen the message now. I'm looking forward to seing what else u can come up with. I'm gonna have the logo printed up on t-shirts & things so I don't think the brown would look good on shirts...
