DRE (THEY/SHE)
Hey hi hello! My name is Dre (they/she) and I have been a Barber for 10+ years. I started in a modern shave parlor, catering to the business men of Hoboken, NJ. Then migrated over to Brooklyn to find my true passion of working in a creative/queer focused space. Finally, heading to my dream land of Southern California to explore new avenues of my career with an expanding company.
With experience in both NYC and LA, I have been exposed to countless types of energies in my chair which has strengthened my intuitive cutting skills to what they are now. I specialize in fades, buzz designs, scissor texture techniques, creative cutting, and beard work. Taking in all aspects of a client while sculpting their look (head shape, desired maintenance, desire to stand out, etc.).
I would consider myself a hair healer in every sense of the word. You are safe in my chair and in good hands.
