After more than two decades in the profession, celebrity hairstylist Florian Hurel, who has worked with the likes of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Sara Ali Khan, and Anushka Sharma, among others, says one of the hardest lessons he has learned is knowing when not to do more.
“One of the most difficult things has become knowing when not to do more,” he said.
He believes younger stylists can sometimes feel pressure to prove what they can do. “When you are starting out, you often want to demonstrate your skill. You want to create a transformation, introduce a new technique, or give the client something visibly different. With experience, you learn that more work does not always mean better work,” he said.
