THROUGH A Life LENS
Robert Masciave is celebrating 21 years as founder of Metropolis Hairdressing and his passion for avant garde has earned him international acclaim
Non-binary
To me hair has no gender. I wanted to prove that the same hairstyle could be worn by any gender. I was inspired by French singer Mireille Mathieu and rock band The Ramones.
Dior inspired
I merged my love for 1950s New Look from Christian Dior with hair and feathers.
The Night Queen
This look was commissioned by Revlon Professional. The task was to create a beautiful, yet powerful look inspired by the terrifying character in The Game of Thrones, The Night King.
Quadrophenia
The music scene has a massive influence on my hair images. This is my interpretation of two very British iconic looks – the mod and the Chelsea cut.
The soul of man
This ‘hair outfit’ took over 500 hours to make using various materials (fabric, thermoplastic), which was covered entirely with 200 metres of human hair wefts.
The minotaur
I went to see a Picasso exhibition and he had drawings of bulls and minotaurs that I couldn’t get out of my head. I was so inspired!
The dove
This look is part of the Semper Eadem collection. I wanted to recreate the effect when birds open their wings before attacking. The expansion of their wings is amazing.
