Fashion now is just so confusing. It doesn't feel as easy. Fashion seems to be in a much more eclectic place.

More quotes by Guido Palau
I must say, Gisele's [Bundhen] got some of the best hair I've ever touched.
Guido Palau
I got into hairdressing and moved from Dorset to London, where I got an apprenticeship at Vidal Sassoon. This was around '83 or '84. I was working on South Molton Street, which was then the epicenter of all the shops. It was like a catwalk. So I did my apprenticeship there, but I wasn't successful.
Guido Palau
When I think of the people I've worked with, all of them have great passion, and the passion is what keeps people inspired.
Guido Palau
Every culture to me - be it Asian, African, be it whatever - is a source of reference. I don't think I'm 'stealing' it or anything.
Guido Palau
I didn't know I wanted to be a hairdresser. I was always interested in fashion and imagery in a very naive way, but it was always an attraction, like glitter balls.
Guido Palau
When you work with great people, you learn - about film, about clothing, about life, about sex.
Guido Palau
I have a total complex [because of my curls], though, because I got teased a lot as a kid.
Guido Palau
I worked in salons, where you do learn the basic sort of thing. But I didn't know anything about the kinds of things I'm doing now. I learned how to put hot-rollers in.
Guido Palau
With Steven Meisel, I'd looked at his work from afar and always loved it, and when I started to work with him, I was blown away. He taught me so much about looking at women and looking at images.
Guido Palau
I'm not giving up on my work. I'm still trying to challenge people's aesthetics and myself.
Guido Palau
I think now because of this whole social media thing, people obviously felt these things [about cultural appropriation] before, and they comment on everything.
Guido Palau
I think it's more funny how every bit of information is up for grabs.
Guido Palau
Suddenly it was cool to have your hair lank . . . It was a whole different way of looking at things, and it shook up the whole industry.
Guido Palau
Fashion was a very insider industry then - it was very closed. So I didn't really know what I wanted to do.
Guido Palau
As the older ones, to understand that it is a different time, and young people look at fashion in a different way . . . It's just different. If we harp on about it, they'll feel like we're just old fuddy-duddies, so I just kind of get on with it. I still feel I've got things to say.
Guido Palau
I celebrate every culture. I love the mix of cultures and I'm never going to change that because that's inspiring to me.
Guido Palau
Even though the industry is very big and there's lots of money, when it gets down to it, whether it's a photographer or a designer, as well as a stylist or makeup artist, you're really only working with maybe four or five people on a project. It's all quite small and intimate.
Guido Palau
I think to many people, textured curls still signify 'difference.' And kids like to pick on what's different.
Guido Palau
I like hair that's been 'worn in' because it's much easier to deal with.... I actually don't like it when [models] come in with this beautiful, thick, glossy hair. I think, Oh, no! I can't do a thing with this!
Guido Palau
I didn't do great in school. I didn't have many options. I mean, I'd like to have gone to art college, but I didn't have the grades. I didn't have any qualifications. But I had some friends who were hairdressers, so I just thought, Well, I'll have a go at it.
