He specialized in giving men a transforming look, either with a long or shortcut, classic or modern, whatever style you desire, Kyle is sure to deliver and even surpass your expectations.
When he is not working in the salon, he works on editorial and print campaigns for Levi’s and Trina Turk, making his YouTube videos, or better still, he would go for his sister’s soccer games.
