Meet Kirsten Stuke, the celebrity colorist who counts Frank Ocean and Zoë Kravitz as clients
Photo: Gabriela Herman A good colorist knows how to turn your hair the perfect shade of blond but also knows when to stop you before it all falls out. Kirsten Stuke is an expert at toeing that line. As a colorist at Sally Hershberger, Stuke is responsible for Frank Ocean’s bleached hair; she also counts celebs like Zoë Kravitz and Lourdes Leon among her clients.
Photo: Gabriela Herman On being on her feet all day: An old boss of mine instructed me to change the shoes I wear every day. We stand all day long, so it’s good to mix it up for the sake of your feet, legs, and back. I still try to do this! I’ll alternate between a pair of Sandro creepers and my platform Vagabond boots.
On her go-to work outfit: When I’m running late, I’ll throw on a T-shirt and this pair of utilitarian pants from Peels. They fit like Dickies and are my favorite. I really get into the vibe of cosplaying as an old housepainter. My secret to dressing it all up is courtesy of my vintage chinoiserie-inspired tops: One is golden silk with a brocade pattern, the other a beautiful merlot velvet. I’ll throw it over everything and get a million compliments.
On whom she dresses for: I wake up and think, Hmm, what would look cool? What would be cute? It always feels good to get nice feedback from coworkers and clients, though. I definitely dress up a bit if I have a cool client coming in. When you live in New York, you’re dressing for the city — you’re around thousands of people on the street wherever you go, so you’re really dressing for them.
