Simone Prusso

Simone Prusso is an Italian hair stylist whose journey into the world of hairstyling began at a young age in Desio, a small town in the province of Monza and Brianza. At just 14 years old, he enrolled in hairdressing school while gaining hands-on experience in a local salon, where he laid the foundations of his craft and developed a deep passion and commitment to the art of hair.

By the age of 19, he was entrusted with managing a salon in Cesano Maderno. However, an unexpected allergy to color treatments pushed him to focus exclusively on cutting and styling. This constraint became a turning point, allowing him to refine his creative expression and accelerate his technical development.

At 22, Simone moved to London to pursue an international career. There, he trained at the renowned Toni & Guy academy, eventually becoming a Style Director and taking on an educational role within the brand. His exposure to London’s vibrant creative scene introduced him to the world of fashion styling, sparking a desire to build a portfolio that would reflect his artistic perspective.

A chance opportunity to step in for a colleague during a fashion shoot in Milan became the beginning of a new chapter. That moment led to a collaboration with Pierpaolo Ferrari—celebrated photographer and co-founder of Toilet Paper Magazine with Maurizio Cattelan—and opened the door to the Italian fashion circuit.

Since then, Simone has worked across Milan, London, Paris, and New York, collaborating with top creatives, agencies, and global fashion brands. His approach blends technical precision with artistic sensitivity, consistently delivering natural, sophisticated, and cohesive results that align with the creative vision of each project—be it an editorial, runway show, or campaign.

Simone believes that hairstyling for fashion is not an isolated craft but an integral part of a shared visual story, one that harmonizes the ideas of photographers, stylists, and creative teams alike. Constantly evolving, he continues to bring his signature aesthetic to the international fashion scene.
