With a client list that includes Jennifer Lopez, Jessica Alba, Chrissy Teigen and a very famous “Klan” of sisters, Jen Atkin has quickly risen to be one of the biggest celebrity hairstylists right now. And unlike many other hair and makeup artists who got their start on Instagram, Atkin has legit done her time in the industry, working for Chris McMillan, assisting Andy LeCompte as well as Guido Palau. In addition to having her own hair product line Ouai and running a hair-focused website called Mane Addicts, Atkin works with Dyson as an ambassador for their Supersonic hairdryer. When the brand brought her to Toronto last week, we managed to snag some time with her so she could take us through four summer hairstyles that utilize the dryer.
