Guy Tang is the famed master colorist and educator at West Hollywood, Ca Salon Republic.

He is synonymous with beauty and best known for his magnificent haircolor designs.

Guy Tang is also known for his expertise in the social media world.

Guy Tang calls himself a “Hair Activist” and is a top educator, giving up details and formulas for his magnificent finishes both on stage and in his many stunning social media posts.

He says he was inspired “by Vidal Sassoon for his precision cuts that was way advance during his time.”

And the celeb he most wants to makeover is Ariana Grande because, he says, “she needs a new look.”

In an interview with Modern Salon, he says the best part of his job is to “create beauty out of madness.”

I have had the pleasure of seeing Guy at work. I call him “Mr. Picasso” because he’s simply a truly gifted colorist who continues to break barriers.

Fearless, and bold,  his personality is humble and yet bubbly.  Guy Tang Picasso style coloring and toning is simply a work of art. He is on a level of his own: styling each individual client and creating their own personal canvas. Most importantly, he takes the time to educate the next generation of stylist’s on his unique coloring and toning techniques.

Hair by Bobby

Based in New York, Hair by Bobby is creating quite the name for himself and with a client such as Gabrielle Douglas, the Olympic Gold Medalist, and his brand Hair by Bobby is on the fast-track to international acclaim.
Hair by Bobby specializes in hair extensions and utilizes professional colorist D. Edmunds to create the perfect custom color and toning.
Bobby understands that it takes teamwork to create sensational styles.
And on Yelp, he garners rave reviews.

Gina K. wrote:  “Booking with Hair By Bobby was easy and his schedule is very convenient/ flexible for my crazy work schedule. The space is small but cozy, clean and has a Bobby flare to it.

“I was welcomed with a tea and chocolate covered gingerbread cookie. During my consult, I was so tired after a long day that I wasn’t very clear with how I wanted my color to be done. I basically had some blonde highlights hand painted/dark brown roots growing out. The contrast was becoming too noticeable and my blonde looked brassy. However, the resulting look was fabulous, harmonious and exactly what I wanted. He’s obviously a mind reader.

“I love that he tries to use organic and/or least harmful methods of coloring hair. Plus, I believe I was the first client to get my hair washed with the pure alkaline water installed that day.

“I would definitely go again! My hair looks and feels great.”
