Jonnier’s journey into the world of barbering is a tale of self-discovery and passion ignited by childhood experiences and a desire for self-expression. Growing up in Colombia, Jonnier’s early encounters with haircuts were intimate family affairs, with his mother taking on the role of the family barber. For years, she skillfully wielded the clippers, shaping not just Jonnier’s hair but also those of his siblings.

However, at the age of 11, Jonnier began to feel the stirrings of his own preferences and desires. He realized that his mother’s cuts didn’t quite align with his vision for his hair. Curious and eager for a change, he turned to his father for a new experience—a trip to the local barbershop. It was here that Jonnier discovered not just a haircut but an entire world of creativity and craftsmanship that captivated him.

At 16, armed with the same clippers his mother had once used on him, Jonnier began to explore the art of barbering himself. Drawing inspiration from his newfound love for the craft and fueled by a desire to hone his skills, he started cutting not only his own hair but also that of his brothers and high school friends. With each snip of the scissors, Jonnier found himself falling deeper in love with the process of transformation and self-expression that barbering offered.

As Jonnier approached the end of his high school years, he knew that he wanted to pursue barbering more seriously. Encouraged by his passion and determination, his father supported him in purchasing his first set of professional clippers, a pivotal moment that marked the beginning of Jonnier’s official journey into the world of barbering.

Another key influence in Jonnier’s journey was a close friend who shared his passion for barbering. Inspired by his friend’s dedication and skill, Jonnier decided to follow in his footsteps, embarking on a path that would lead him to a career he truly loved.

With his friend as a mentor and guide, Jonnier began to immerse himself fully in the world of barbering, learning the ropes and refining his techniques. Eventually, he joined his friend at the same barbershop, where he continued to grow and develop as a barber.

From those early days cutting hair at home to his current position as a skilled professional, Jonnier’s love for barbering has remained unwavering. For him, barbering is more than just a job—it’s a passion, a creative outlet, and a lifelong journey of self-discovery.
