Name: Jeremy McDougle
Salon: Lunatic Fringe
Finalist Category: Newcomer of the Year
Reason I became a stylist: I became a stylist because I was always looking for a way to express art. Hairdressing allowed me to express my art and have others appreciate it.
Best advice I ever received regarding my career in hair/beauty: The best advice I've gotten is to be me, “be Jeremy,” no matter what anyone says or does.
Best advice I would give to a new hairstylist starting out: The best advice to give to a new stylist starting out is work really, really hard and create and accomplish YOUR dreams!
Funniest thing that ever happened to me in a salon: The funniest thing that’s happened to me in the salon would probably be when I had to lie to my boss and ask him to finish blow drying for me so I could go 'fix my contact,“ which was code for I had to use the bathroom! I told him after, and so now everyone is always making sure my contacts are fine.
