For fun in his youth, Ben would experiment on his mother's and grandmother's
hair. He'd practice perming, coloring and styling. Since
French-braiding a class-mate's hair in high school, Ben has known
his path in life.
Ben has been a stylist for 13 years, but he has had a life-long passion
for music. A rocker through and through, he likes to say that
he attended Cameo Beauty Academy to have a career to fall back
on!
Ben finds inspiration in ordinary working class people with dreams, ambition
and their own personal styles. Currently, he styles the locks
of private clientele coming from all walks of life and has set up shop
in a music store called Dynamite Music in Griffith, IN. Behind the rows
of violins, electric guitars and racks of vintage clothing, Ben works
in a small room, painted by his friends, using tool boxes as work stations.
Ben spends his free time playing saxophone in a funk group and singing
lead in a rock band. His interests also include bowling and finding
good beer.
