A Week in Milan with Fashion’s Most In-Demand Hairstylist


Romantic, rebellious, strange, timeless, antique and unnatural — these are just a few of the ways Guido Palau describes the 27 unique hairstyles he’s crafted for this fashion season. As the global creative director of Redken, Palau is one of the busiest men in beauty — particularly during fashion weeks in New York, London, Milan and Paris.

At Milan Fashion Week, which concluded on Monday, Palau was behind the tresses at Alberta Ferretti, Prada, Versace, Bottega Veneta and Dolce & Gabbana. Between shows, he strolled around the center of Milan, wandering into boutiques (the Prada store is a priority), patisseries and its grand basilica — and stayed at his home away from home, the Four Seasons. (He always stays in the same room and brings along a few creature comforts — a Cire Trudon Ernesto candle, granola from the Ranch in Los Angeles — to make it feel more like home.) Palau prefers having a swim and ordering minestrone and arugula salad from room service to nightly fashion dinners and parties — at the end of a day of testing and shows, he says, “I’ve had my fill of people.”
