Hairdresser Spotlight #1

Guido Palau



Guido Palau is arguably one of the world's most influential hairstylist both in editorial and runway, and has been so for more than a decade. He creates the catwalk looks for such major players as, Marc Jacobs, Prada, Calvin Klein, Versace, Alberta Ferretti, Miu Miu, ChloƩ, Louis Vuitton, and Balenciaga and many more including his incredible creations for ad campaigns print work. And what you may not know is just like clothes the designers set the trends and we wear them, so does the hair and beauty, a modern up-style (up-do) is taken from the runways as is the latest hottest lip color and becomes most of the time mainstream.
Guido Palau is one of my favorites, he is an inspiration to many of us in the beauty industry, we take ideas from the likes of Palau and what’s on the runway’s and create variations and interpretations for the clients in the salon. A hairdressers-dresser with the creative ability to make women look powerful yet soft and for this season and many to come I am sure we will be seeing many more trend setting shapes, cuts, colors from Guido Palau.
