Internationally renowned star photographers like Karl Lagerfeld and Russell James present fascinating picture galleries celebrating hair as a true style icon. The book also features sophisticated original stories and anecdotes dealing with hair in an informative and entertaining way – visionary, glamorous, innovative and of a high journalistic standard throughout. “We Love Hair” explores the topic in an equally innovative and concise manner, flanked by visually intriguing, highly artistic photography. Karl Lagerfeld stages his very own rendition of “German Hair”, and Roxanne Lowit portrays the glamorous visions of international hair stylists behind the scenes of haute couture fashion shows. Finally Russell James is inspired by the beauty of nature and transforms it into a magic and sensual homage to femininity. In the second part of the book international writers, designers and other celebrities have their say. Jan Weiler recalls childhood days spent with Schauma. Nick Hornby talks about life with and without hair, and in Tatyana Ustinova’s narrative a thief is exposed by a treacherous hair. Sir Roger Moore gives away the Bond girls’ best kept hair secrets, and Patrice Leconte reveals why he finds short-haired women so attractive. Rarely have stories about hair been told with such excitement, humour and intimacy while at the same time shedding light on many of the interesting, quaint and funny aspects of the subject. “We Love Hair” is also available in a german edition.
