Rod Anker, Creative Director of Monsoon Salon and Spa, who has worked at fashion weeks in Australia and Asia, has made his debut on the Indian runway at the Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week.
Australia-born Anker said that he has worked previously at fashion weeks in Australia and Asia however this is his first time in India.
He is incredibly honored at the belief that Fashion Design Council of India had in his team at Monsoon Salon and Spa to allow him to partner with the WLIFW, he said.
When asked what took him so long, Anker replied saying he had to have the manpower to be able to deliver at such a prestigious event and he has that confidence that stems from 26 years of experience and hard work.
While commenting on styling Indian hair, he said that the hair density is certainly thicker in India and people like to have long lengths.
He added that he finds Indian hair incredibly beautiful.
Anker, who came to India nearly seven years ago after learning the craft of hairstyling from the leaders in the industry, has styled hair for the likes of Deepika Padukone, Elle Macpherson and Kyle Minougue.
