Steve Brooks / Cuts

CUTS An iconic series of portraits from the ’90s and ’00s by Steve Brooks, co-owner with James Lebon of the legendary CUTS salon in Soho (London). He captured spontaneous triptychs of a diverse clientele on black-and-white 35mm film: enlarged contact prints displayed in the shop window, replaced when a new roll was developed. A precious document of London’s vibrant cultural scene—music, fashion, art. This expanded edition includes over 100 previously unpublished pages of newly discovered portraits, enriching the historical archive of this hairdressing temple. A perfect fusion of street photography and urban chronicle.
