About this listen

A talented hair artist and wigmaker, Selena Pertzel was never going to be content in a normal salon. In this episode of The Churchill Collective, host Adam Spencer introduces us to Selena and explores how and why she left her hairdressing job on the Gold Coast to become one of the most important hair artists in the Australian film industry. Selena recounts her work on films like the ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ and ‘The Great Gatsby’ and what it’s like to work with stars like Johnny Depp and Russell Crowe. She also discusses her Churchill Fellowship experience, where she travelled to London to learn the art of custom wig-making, aiming to contribute to the growth of the Australian film industry.
