Celebrity men’s groomer, hair department head for film and tv, AND brand founder, Anissa Salazar has range. Her kit does too, with Salazar telling us, “depending on the job, my kit is constantly rotating products and tools.”
However, she has a proclivity toward clean, sustainable brands that’s apparent in the list of “products [she] cannot live without.” And she even teases something that’s coming soon to Tecuane Hair! Scroll for Salazar’s “Kit Check.”
