Meet Hermès
Hermès has been openly queer in the hair industry since 2013, and that lived experience informs every aspect of his work behind the chair. Creating a truly inclusive space isn’t about trends or buzzwords—it’s about respect, language, and understanding how identity and hair intersect. This work matters because every person deserves to sit in a salon chair without fear, judgment, or explanation, and to leave feeling good about their hair AND the experience they had with their stylist/in the salon.
Take the first step to making your salon or barbershop trans-inclusive.
