For most people, it’s because what we wear helps us to cultivate a certain emotion and/or sense of confidence. While contrarians will discount the fashion community and industry as superficial, most of the world comprehends that fashion is a tool which allows them to have a sense of control in their lives.

Society and academia can have all of the nature vs. nurture arguments they like, Lauren Mackellar knows the truth; it’s both and neither. That is to say, the determination of the human spirit supersedes all factors. Mackellar is an admired and envied hairstylist to the stars in Australia who is from a small town that neither embraced or was deeply interested in high fashion or the hair and beauty that walks hand in hand with it in the entertainment/celebrity world. Alexandra (in north-east Victoria, Australia) did have one young tomboy who found herself suddenly obsessed with magazines from a young age though, and was definitely interested in the more “girly” stuff like hair and makeup. When a popular TV series filmed just across the fence of her family’s yard, it planted the seed of interest in film and TV that would set Lauren upon the course to become a hairstylist and working with the actors on these types of productions. Besides giving her a ringside seat to the entertainment wor...

As a means of doing this she has embraced one of the most ubiquitous aspects of modern life; social media.
