In 1990 Alan and I opened Laru inside Double Rainbow on the south side of Route 66 in the center of up and coming Nob Hill. In 1997 I graduated from the Aveda Institute as their first Barber student. Wanting to up my game, I attended hand-on workshops around the country offered by Vidal Sassoon, Bumble and Bumble, Redken, and American Crew. As a result, I have focused my career on two creative avenues: cutting hair with a straight razor, and hair color that looks natural, but with subtleties that improve on nature. And finally I get satisfaction from sharing what I have learned with other stylists because I remember what it was like to start out in a new and creative field.
