Stylists

HEADBETTER IS WHERE THE HEART IS.

Headbetter Salon is a collective of hairdressers. We have chosen people that care about their clients to fill our chairs. We have fun while we work. We found that the more honest and successful a hairdresser was, the less they put on arrogant heirs. We rid the salon of false pretense and let our art speak for itself.

Meet our team, the finest Los Angeles has to offer. =)

He has worked on many major motion pictures and television shows (IMDB), and his work has reached the red carpets of the Grammys and the Golden Globes. He defines himself as a no-nonsense technician who does not follow trends, but instead creates them. He finds his inspiration from his clientele and, knowing that Hollywood is inherently ahead of the curve in fashion, he would rather lead than follow.
