Openly trans model and LGBT rights activist Lea T has become the new face of premium haircare line Redken.

After becoming the muse of Givenchy designer Riccardo Tisci, Lea T is now featured in Redken’s Chromatics hair-color line campaign.

The Brazillian model was discovered by Givenchy three years ago.

She featured in Bennetton’s Unhate campaign last year.

Aiming to ā€œfight against hate and discrimination in all its forms,ā€ the Unhate campaign features Lea T, who has also modelled for Givenchy.
