An incomparable stylist and influential trailblazer in the hair industry… a distinguished stylist, renowned for his effortless take on authenticity in every aspect of hair care. Having immersed himself in the field for over thirty years, John is considered a master craftsman and is recognized as one of the leading forces working in the industry today.

Born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, John was exposed at an early age to the world of fashion.

From humble beginnings, he successfully navigated the business, starting from renting a simple booth at a salon to owning and operating his own, in the affluent Detroit suburb of Birmingham, Michigan. With passion and vigor, John pursued many aspects of the hair industry, including to brand his own hair products, which competed with Paul Mitchell,  Vital Sasson and Clairol.

In an effort to expand his skillsets, John watched old movies. He was captivated by classic looks and he began to  transform old hairstyles into trademark works-of-art. Determined to brand his style, John made a name for himself becoming professionally known as a specialist in high fashion, hair coloring and haircutting.
