The Strands That Bind Us
Matthew and Drew are best friends who share a passion for tattoos, travel and hair. They’re both professional hairstylists who have worked at fashion weeks around the world, styled some of the biggest celebrities in Hollywood and had their work featured in countless magazines. But both their careers began unconventionally- they began cutting their own hair in their teens, then became college athletes who decided to follow their true passion- styling hair. Their work and adventures have taken them around the world where they discovered that hair is both a specifically personal and broadly unifying thing. Through their journeys, both personal and professional, they’ve heard some of the most fascinating stories from fellow hairstylists and clients how hair has transformed not just their look, their confidence and their spirits- but also their lives. Here are some of these stories.
