About

Fashion.
Craft.
15 Years.

Michael Kent is an award-winning hair stylist with over 15 years in the industry — known for his excellence, creativity, and deep love for the fashion community.

His practice spans three disciplines: private salon work, editorial session styling, and international runway. In 2026, he led his first show for Genaro Rivas Menswear SS/26 — and has since expanded his roster to include Raquel De Carvalho, Hannah Smith, Genaro Rivas Women's LFW SS/27, and a growing list of independent designers.

His work has appeared in Vogue, Vogue PH, Edrea, Katlblut, 5Eleven, True Love Fashion, Outset, and Black Beauty & Hair Magazine — including a photoshoot for 5000.lab published in Vogue.

Michael is also an industry educator, having presented on stage at HairCon, Salon International, and Colour World.
