Paul Mitchell’s newly appointed (and first ever!) global ambassador Winnie Harlow has been opening up about her connection to the brand and relationship with hair: “My mum was a hairdresser growing up,” she says.
“I loved seeing her transform a client’s hair, put a smile on their face and leave them happy and ready to rule the world. Partnering with an iconic brand like Paul Mitchell is close to my heart; I get to create new personas, personalities and characters with every look.”
