Having worked with emerging and established talent the likes of Björk and Collina Strada, Japanese hair artist Tomihiro Kono defines hairstyling as a conduit to personal transformation, giving wearers a new identity.

Changing your hair can be an identity forming experience, and for hair artist and stylist John Allan, the strands do all the talking. With each head a canvas for experimentation, pushing the boundaries to create more defiant ways as to how we perceive the hair on our very heads, Allan boasts a repertoire of clients from Mowalola to Beabadoobee.
