“Change can be difficult, but it’s important to evolve.” ✨

From winning one of Creative HEAD’s very first It List Awards to becoming one of the most recognised hairdressers on the planet, @chrisappleton1 knows exactly what it takes to grow, adapt and stay ahead.

In the May issue, we sit down with the man behind some of the world’s most famous hair looks – including clients like Ariana Grande and the Kardashians – to talk graft, growth, reinvention and navigating life in the public eye. 🔥

If you need a reminder that big careers start somewhere… this is it.
