11-Year-Old Aspiring Celeb Hairstylist Runs A Hair Salon In His Parents' Basement
11-year-old Vince from Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, cuts and colors friends and family's hair for now — but he hopes to become a celeb hairstylist one day.
Hey Rachel, I'm Vince., I'm 11 years old and I'm from Bloomfield Hills Michigan, and this is my salon.. When I was two years old, I learned to braid when my Mom did one of my doll's hair and did a braid, and I saw the pattern of how she did it.. I like working with hair, because I love all the different textures, because you can do so much with it and with colors, and it's like doing art. Take maybe like an inch off Yeah.. I taught myself how to color and style hair by watching YouTube videos, because I always watch how they did it and I learned different techniques. Right now, since I'm not licensed. I only do my family and friends hair right now and they let me color their hair or cut their hair and style it.. I don't really charge because it's kind of like for me, because I'm getting more practice, but when I'm older, I would love to do. Obviously, everybody's hair., My mannequins, help me practice cutting hair or curling, hair or braiding hair, and this is one that I colored and braided.. I do color cuts., I do blow-outs., I can curl hair or straighten hair or braid hair.. My dream job for the future is to own a hair salon and be a celebrity hair colorist.. I would say to other kids that want to follow their dreams to just be yourself and don't give up and don't care about what other people think about them. ( audience clapping ), Please welcome Vince., That's so good. Thank you., _, So Vince, I'm so impressed that You'Re so industrious at 11.. Do you remember the first cut that you made Yeah.? How old were you? The first cut that I gave was when I five., Who gave you scissors at five? No, who did you cut My Grandma's hair.? Do you think you did a good job Yeah? My Aunt helped me but-. Oh good., Okay, the first lesson we want you to leave with today-, Listen to your Aunties., That one must value their work in life., Indeed yes.. So I want you to take this home and promise me. You will not put one price in here less than five dollars: okay, ( audience, clapping )! Thank you! So much.! That'S your first gift.! Thank you! So much. You're welcome so much. Tabitha. You have a second gift, don't you!
