British Hair Awards: Afro Finalist Collection by Luke Nugent

When it comes to hairdressing, Lisa Farrall is one of the best in her field. Her collection, Armour, won first place in 3 categories at The Black Hair Awards and was also one of the finalists in the prestigious British Hair Awards 2016.

Armour (makeup by Suhyun Kang-Emeryshot + shot by Luke Nugent) is a tribute to African culture. It represents beauty and strength, which is usually difficult to capture.

Tara Clancy has made a career sharing honest, funny tales about her life. A former bartender and a proud member of the working class, she also has a thick Queens accent. “Unfortunately, people hear [my accent] and they don’t think, ‘Now there’s a person who popularized quantum electrodynamics,’ ” she says. “They hear it and they make judgments.”

Her new memoir is called The Clancys of Queens.
