Pierpaolo Lai
Pierpaolo Lai is a Sardinian hairstylist, and a master of his craft. Originally trained in the military, he worked as a firefighter throughout his twenties. As a pastime he collected books on art, photography, and fashion, building a dream that he would later go on to realise as an innovator of beauty in the fashion industry.
He moved to Milan to sharpen his focus and study all things hair, then onto London, and has since worked all over the world, calling New York, London, Paris, and Milan home.
Pierpaolo is a true artist, using finely-honed technical skills and his creative imagination to break new ground with hair. Working fluently with wigs, headpieces, colour, and other artistic materials, Pierpaolo produces effortless expressions of style and beauty that weave and fuse together an eclectic mix of inspirations, and influences.
His enthusiasm, experience, attention to detail and love for his craft radiates on set and can be seen throughout his work featured on billboards, magazine covers, and the catwalk.
With a career spanning over 30 years, Pierpaolo continues to live his dream, constantly refining his craft, and pushing his own boundaries.
