What makes a hairstylist an artist in their craft? How does passion and creativity harmonize with producing a deliverable for a client? Hair By Stef is a profile piece on Stefanie DeMio, a bay area hair artist and bright soul. When I set out to make this film, I wanted to explore the themes that make this profession an art, and I ended up falling in love with the personal journey Stef let me in on. Her work is therapy, carrying her through life's ups and downs.
"I'm feeling a change for this time of my life. It sounds so scary to be alone, but I know I'm not truly alone because that passion is there."
