So You Want to be an Editorial Hairstylist?
Ever thought of using metal strips or pipe cleaners as a base to keep shape, add volume, and/or lift the hair? How about using a posh wig style from another period of time to offset a modern look, or matching fabric from wardrobe to create a tied up ‘do? Editorial stylists sometimes use these bizarre but helpful tricks to pull together a hot look that lasts during a long day of shooting, sometimes with very little time for preparation.
On an editorial set, you have to bring your “A-game”, and that means thinking creatively, using what you have to pull together a top-notch look, and working with the rest of the creative team to get it all done in lightning-fast speed. There’s no room for failure when the entire set — photographer(s), wardrobe stylist(s), makeup artist(s), producer, creative director, and more — heavily depend on you to bring the looks. After all, they don’t call it a “glam squad” for nothing! How can you ensure you play your part?
BE THE HAIRSTYLIST THAT EDITORS PERSONALLY REQUEST FOR THEIR SHOOTS AND EVENTS. BE THE HAIRSTYLIST IN HIGH DEMAND FOR RUNWAY SHOWS.
When your work speaks for itself, you can build an amazing reputation in the editorial world that can’t be matched. Before you know it, you’ll be creating beautiful looks for top magazines such as Harper’s BAZAAR, ESSENCE, ELLE, Seventeen, Marie Claire, and Allure or showing off your hairstyles on the runways of Betsey Johnson, Tracy Reese, Custo Barcellino, Alice and Olivia, and more.
Styling hair for beauty shoots, fashion shows, television, and movies can be an exciting alternative to working behind a chair in a salon! However, there are a few things to learn before your upcoming shoot. If you’ve been trying to get your big break in editorial styling, read on. We’ve got what you need to know.
