About
Hi, I'm Dexter
I have been doing session hair for twelve years, first assisting in salons and then on sets in London, mostly in studios, stairwells and alleys. I like a brief that is clear, a kit that is ready and a look that holds its shape under hot lights.
Photographers, editors and brands write to me with a mood and a date. I work out who I need, bring the kit, and credit every look I post, so you can see where it came from.
