Kylie O'Toole, Hair Stylist, Sydney

Description

This striking editorial portrait features a close-up of a Black model with dark skin, gazing directly at the camera with a neutral expression. Their hair is elaborately sculpted with textured metallic gold leafing that clings to the strands and wraps across part of the forehead. Draped over one shoulder is a voluminous, sheer grey tulle wrap that contrasts softly with the deep tones of the subject and background. The lighting is moody and directional, casting gentle shadows across the face and highlighting the intricate textures of the metallic hair treatment. Hair styling is credited to Kylie O'Toole in Sydney.
