This happed so quickly, Richard said he began working on the piece several months ago, and the opportunity to do the show at La MaMa happened because of a brand new client he was doing heard Richard was working with the director Andrei Serban. She was impressed, and then the director called. The rest is part of the history of the piece.

Richard feels "The beauty salon is a form of theatre where transformation has to take place." He said "I started out doing hair in London at age 15 by the time I was 17 I was working on style shoots for Vogue and Harpers Bazaar. I’ve always cut and styled iconic people in the arts, models, actors, writers, etc. I always got my best cues from them, however, I had to develop my own timing."
