Alan Randall

Stylist & Creative Director


Alan was raised in Ames, Iowa and has been in the industry since 2011. Hair has taken him across the country, from NYC to Seattle working with product lines and educators. Alan can rock out all of your hair needs from cut to color or even perms. He specializes in razor cutting, asian hair types, and mens grooming. When he's out of the salon you can find him skateboarding with his dog Panda (she's adorable) around main street, or hiking and shredding the mountains in Colorado.
