Collaborator Caroline Lamp, a rebellious hair artist and educator who runs her own salon ‘Outlaw Hairdressing’ based in Glasgow.  She began working in the beauty industry over 20 years ago.  Disillusioned with the inauthenticity she observed, she began a journey to redefine beauty for herself based on individual vs. imposed standards and norms. Her practice is one of enabling others to take this path.
