Project
Barbershop Video and Photo Campaign
Delivering a bold statement with every cut, Altered State Productions teamed up with Dallas Blends for “The Cornerstone,” a high-impact brand campaign showcasing fall hairstyles in an editorial-style collection.
With a focus on premium barbering, men's and women's haircuts were captured in striking urban settings through portrait photography, fashion photography, influencer partnerships, and lifestyle videography. The vibrant hairstyle choices brought a pop of color to everyday environments, giving the campaign an unmistakable edge.
Through influencer-led content creation, the campaign spotlighted sharp fades, creative designs, and detailed grooming, effectively blending street culture with high-end barbering to reach a trend-driven audience.
The campaign introduced video lookbooks specifically designed for Snapchat, featuring short, mobile-first clips that showcased fall hairstyle trends and encouraged viewers to book appointments at Dallas Blends’ premium barber suites.
By tapping into a fashion-forward, style-conscious audience in the Dallas area, the campaign achieved a low cost-per-click and cost-per-lead, generating both online engagement and in-store appointments.
Every look from the best in business sharpened the edge of culture—where the fade became the calling card—building what’s now known as the cornerstone.
