When Hollywood’s leading men need a haircut, there’s only one woman they trust: @MiraChai Hyde. “She understands what’s on my head like she understands what’s inside it,” says @pascalispunk . But long before Hyde became the go-to hairdresser for everyone from Pedro Pascal and Austin Butler to Harrison Ford and Patrick Schwarzenegger, the self-proclaimed “Godmother of Grooming” began her career as a collaborator—and roommate—of Alexander McQueen. In our Originals Issue, on newsstands now, Hyde explains how she went from styling punks in New Haven to A-listers in her Los Angeles garage. Link in bio for the full story.

W VOLUME 5: THE ORIGINALS ISSUE
I’ve had to dig out my resume today to get my work visa for my next destination. It’s been around 10 years since I have updated it. I was rather impressed myself when I took a look at the many wonderful jobs and people I’ve worked with. So many amazing and not so amazing memories of my career of 36 years. #blessed to still be working in this industry at my 66th year of life. And because of all my long years in the industry I was able to create my hair product line @houseofskuff from all the experience that I’ve learned. 1000’s of haircuts and on set work , shows, advertising . #imstillhere #godmotherofgrooming
Our individually formulated Hair Gain Extract hasn’t just helped more than 100,000 clients achieve stronger, fuller, healthier hair, it’s also won the hair industry’s seal of approval.
The Godmother of Grooming, Mira Chai, started as a Hårklinikken client and believes in our hero product so much that she recommends us to her A-list clientele.
“It’s just amazing to find a product that I really believe in, and I use myself. I stake my reputation on Hårklinikken.”

When I look at this picture. It just makes me feel so sad. Very mixed feelings today about Lee’s passing.
