Meet the Business Owner

Matthew C.

Business Owner

«You know that feeling you get right after a great haircut? Confident in knowing you appear desirable, capable, even superhuman. You should feel that way every time you get ready to take on the world, not just when you leave the salon.» Matthew is #RedkenObsessed and has been since he began his career in 2004. He has worn many hats in the beauty industry, gleaning skill and experience as a technical educator, salon manager, brand specialist, retail merchandising director, hairstylist, and makeup artist. The business of making pretty isn’t always as glamorous or easy as it can appear to the casual onlooker. Coupled with the challenge of moving across country and rebuilding a business, it was precisely this that really opened Matt’s eyes for what felt like the first time — and led him to be the change he wished to see in the world. A native of the American South, Matt has found his niche here in the Pacific NW and invites you to come and experience the professional edge.
