TRENT - OWNER & LEAD STYLIST

As a young boy growing up in Indiana, Trent Edward Sutton channeled his early artistic energies toward the usual teen-angsty outlets: alternative rock, art and skateboarding. Fast forward to 2002, and Trent found himself far from home, on the sun-baked shores of San Diego. Looking for a practical way to spin his creative passion, he enrolled in cosmetology school. "I instantly fell in love with hair styling," Trent says. "The fusion of color, shape and texture fascinated me. Making clients look and feel great was such a rush. I was hooked."

"Working with others who share my interest in healthy, beautiful hair is a great inspiration," Trent says. "Seeing other people's work keeps me motivated and creative."

In Trent’s free time he enjoys skateboarding and spending time with his wife and dog.
