Our story

We show up for everything. Hair day too.

We coach the games, check the homework, and sit through every recital. When it came to our kids' hair, most of us handed the comb back.

We looked for a class built for dads and couldn't find one. So Joe Kollo and Prince Williams built it, with two professional stylists and a room full of fathers ready to learn.

I never thought I would be able to do my daughter's hair. Now I do her wash day without hesitation.
