Here are some of my proposals. Instead of creating a separate icon / typography combination, I've created an all encompassing logo / unit. One that can be used for additional elements just as branding stamps, watermarks, shirt badges/embroidery etc.
I've started in its simplest form, B&W ... I've always been a believer if it works in this, it will work in colour. And also shows that it can work for things like newspaper print etc.
The logo is 100% vector so will scale well to any size, and works well in full colour, B&W and on coloured backgrounds if needed,
It would be my pleasure to work up any variations so please do say. I look forward to your comments or thoughts.
I do not want just white and black logos. I would like any of the following colors: black, gold, silver, white incorporated. Also, I like cursive writing as it looks more elegant. You can include any barbering piece such as scissors, razor or machines.
Not a problem at all ... This is purely just to show that the logo can still work in its simplest form, B&W. That way you'll know if its needed in simple monotone for say a newspaper it will still look good.
Not a problem re the cursive lettering I can add that. RE the barbering items - there are already scissors in entry #6, but will see what else I can do.
Can you add a piece of the barber pole to the top of the image? Similar to what you did in the bottom. Also can you change the shape of the Gold emblem? Thank you
