a hairstylist who is a celebrity or a hairstylist who styles celebrities' hair?

A hairstylist who styles celebrities' hair. Specifically interested in people who have worked in the entertainment business (styling for TV shows and the like)

Is it possible to be successful in fashion/fashion mediums without using social media?

I stopped using a lot of social media due to mental health purposes, and I’ve always wanted to start a blog/YouTube or whatever, as well as actually work in the industry. Is having a social media presence that necessary/is it possible to be successful without one?

Just wondering, what do you define as successful?

Great question.

I think I'd measure success in regard to the consistency of a following? I wouldn't exactly care if my following was big or small, but more people that are loyal, if that makes any sense?

I basically just want to have a voice or be a lot more hands-on with fashion. I look at blogs like Die, Workwear!, StreetExprezza, and TimothyDesaint and I see there is a ton of consistency in their followings. Everyone has carved specific niches without compromising their core values.

Being on social media may not be worth it if it is at the expense of your mental health.

Exactly, which is why I'm avoiding it but also understand why it's incredibly crucial in any creative endeavor nowadays.
You could pay someone to do it for you, if it affects you negatively. I know a couple companies (shops, tailoring houses) that do that, but not too many “individual” accounts.
