Winnie Harlow is joining John Paul Mitchell Systems as the company's first-ever Global Ambassador. The brand’s 2021 campaign—shot by renowned photographer Micaiah Carter—celebrates the power of self-expression through hair, inspiring consumers to embrace their distinct beauty and explore their personal style.
“Expressing myself through hair is a fun experience that represents different stages in my life. I get to create new personas, personalities and characters with every look—from super sexy with long, straight hair, a chilled-out feel with curly waves, and a little tomboy with a short cut,” says Harlow.
