Natasha Leibel

In a small town, somewhere in Canada, I began giving haircuts to my friends at the ripe age of 9. With my dad's cutting sheers in hand, I Bobbed my way through the "hood". Fast-forward twenty years. You will still find me bobbing, layering and styling my way through my neighborhood, only now with skilled hands, and my "hood" just happens to be New York City. Early in my career I won international hairdresser of the year. This allowed me a 6-month stint in London with the Tony and Guy artistic team. It was there that Anthony Mascolo, TIGI International Creative Director, and his team truly broadened my vision of the hair and fashion industry. With creativity, masterful artistry and forward thinking, I learned the true skills of executing an artistic impression and running a small empire. These skills have fueled my many years of hairdressing and have aided me as a business owner, salon educator and artist. After landing in New York, I was fortunate to work with Nick Arrojo of What Not To Wear, and his team. My 11 years in New York have exposed me to commercial, editorial and theatre styling, allowing me to work with top talent such as Sarah Jessica Parker, Liam Neeson, Gabriel Byrne, Andrew McCarthy, Kerri Russell, Kristen Johnston and Lili Taylor.
