Hi guys, after a quick discussion with my client, and some more sketching I decided to go for a bit more regular style. Criticism is highly appreciated ;)
Really beautiful, I love this one. Those extended swashes are such a great touch, really dynamic. Left and right balance is excellent!
My only criticism is that I'd love to see the lower bowl of the 'B' closed a little more (maybe following the shape of the end of 's'). At the minute, the 'B' feels like it's angled/pointing up and to the right a lot more than the other letters. I think a minor edit like that would help it to follow the direction of the rest of the characters, without losing its expressiveness. (Hope that makes sense!)
Hey Florin, sorry only just seeing this now – great update. I think the change to the bottom of the lower bowl really works nicely (and yeah, the stem is a really good touch, definitely wouldn't change that!)
Hi @Dan (Hypagraphic) yea that color is a bit to dark you are right, please take a look at the second attachment, and let me know in what way do you feel it's strange? :) cheers
@Florin Capota I'd like to see a different shape for the B. I don't think you need that downward stroke to be as prominent as it is. I feel it divides the two words and doesn't add anything to the design. The left and right swashes balance the name out.

@Claire Coullon , Hi Claire could you please run a quick eye over the attachement http://dribbble.com/shots/742828-Marius-Bulcau-Hair-Stylist/attachments/73882
and let me know if you feel that B is better now, i really want that stem descending there, helps a bit with the tagline positioning in regards to the name. Thanks :)

Like it but the B looks a bit strange. "Hair Stylist" could be more prominent. Being dark and thin could serve up some problems.
