Hair Stylists

How to choose a hair stylist

A hair stylist does the hair on set — editorial shapes, clean commercial finishes, wigs and pieces — and keeps it holding through the day, between looks and under studio light.

What to read in a portfolio

1. 1

   Shapes that survive movement and a long day, not only the first frame.

2. 2

   A portfolio across textures — straight, curly, afro, short — not one hair type.

3. 3

   Wigs and pieces done cleanly when the brief needs them.

What to put in the request

1. 1

   The look: editorial shape, clean commercial finish or a wig job.

2. 2

   Number of models, their hair types and how many changes.

3. 3

   Date, city, hours, and whether makeup is on the same person.
