Radion on Video

Radio on Video They had invited me to be on the radio. They asked me to bring my tools. I asked, why? They wanted me to do a haircut on the radio. Think about that. Most haircutters who do shows and such do haircuts on video or television. I was being asked to do a haircut on radio. How cool is that. My haircutting abilities have transcended the need for visual representation. Just the sound was to be enough. They did video tape me on the radio as well. The live radio piece did play well and for listeners, seeing was not needed. Later they have posted the video on YouTube. The link is below. Have a look at what we believe to be the first radio haircut to be on video… or something like that. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Z3rak5y-Ic Line
Market Volatility

Market Volatility The Dow Jones closed down 400 points, my hair got longer. The Dow Jones closed up a few points, my hair got longer. Mortgage rate rose, my hair got longer. Mortgage rates plummeted, my hair got longer. Interest rates changed. So did my hair. It got longer. Amid all of this financial turmoil, let us not forget the game we play. Our basic business is rock solid. Yes, we can see appointment stretching during tough times. 20 years ago Michael Cole told me something. He told me that every hour you invest in business building activities this month will fill your chair 8 hours next month. That is a BIG return on investment. Our business continues to be one in which all our efforts pay off big and strong. Now is the time to invest in your clients and your business. Line
On the air

On the air I went downtown to the Tribune tower to do the spot on WGN radio. That was way fun. I did a haircut live on the radio. Some haircutters do video. I have transcended the need for visuals. I can cut hair on the radio. I am told it worked well. Just the sound alone was able to convey the message. Brian Noonan was the on-air host for the show and he was genuinely interested in the records and impressed with the feat(s). he gets his hair cut from a regular guy barber and was very much into the idea of a good haircut delivered quickly.

The 4 Min. Fade in Schaumburg, IL

The 4 min fade @ Schaumburg, IL The recent show in Schaumburg, IL was a success in the classrooms. We had good models and of course the mannequins were up to the high standards we expect. The best of the classes and demos was the Andis 4 min. Fade program. We cut it on a mannequin to show the concept. Then we cut it on a live client to put it into real application. The head was perfect for the demo. The Improved master clipper was, as always the tool of choice for this kind of work. Many learned much on this demo. I will send you the technical print out of the 4 min fade just for the asking. Send an email if you want a copy of it. You have just got to try this idea. Save time, cut better hair. Get better results. Make more money. Aren’t those the goals? Line
