GUIDO PALAU
For British hairstylist Guido Palau, hair was always on the cards. "My history [with hairstyling] goes back a long way," says the artist. "I started my career in London in the early '80s, and have been doing hair for about 40 years. I did my apprenticeship at Vidal Sassoon, but I decided early on in my career that I wanted to work in fashion, so I left the prestigious salon and went on this journey in the industry. That was years ago and I am still here now."
Fresh off fashion week, Palau has worked his magic on models walking for Prada's Fall/Winter 2024 show and Dior's Spring/Summer 2024 Haute Couture show; in the latter, the artist weaved delicate braids and bows to complement the overall look of the collection. "Maria Grazia Chiuri, the designer at Dior, has such a strong vision for beauty," says Palau of the inspiration behind his work for the show. "I have worked with her for many years now, so we have a great and trusting relationship when we talk about her ideas; she has a very feminine approach to beauty and this hairstyle was quintessentially Chiuri."
When it comes to steering his craft towards the fashion industry, Palau says it boils down to a combination of several important things-time, effort, luck and hard work. "You never know what is going to happen with your craft," says the stylist. "You just work at it and work at it. I have been lucky, but I have also worked hard. It's a combination of the two, and I think it's important to always be pushing yourself and your aesthetics."
