Creator Series

Andis North American Artistic Team Lead, Kenny Duncan, uses barbering to boost the confidence of renowned artists, athletes and actors right before they share their magic with the world. The common denominator in his experiences with his celebrity clients is that they all perform with more passion when they feel good. Why? Because they know they look good. Kenny Duncan bottled up that same magic in this Confidence Built Through Hair Collection comprised of confidence-boosting haircutting tutorials that apply to the everyday person. This collection of lifestyle photography, storytelling reels and tutorials features modern, classic styles for a variety of curl patterns.

THE CREATIVE VISION
Kenny worked with L Wright Photography to capture images of people at their best. Images feature the models feeling confident after their haircut transformations. Ordinary people doing extraordinary things after experiencing confidence-building haircuts! These hairstyles set the tone for greatness before work, school, sporting events and a date night. Four curl patterns are featured in this collection and all five trending haircut tutorials were created with a mix of professional-grade Andis tools.

“Whether it’s a music artist on stage in front of thousands of people or the average person going out on that special first date, feeling good about your hair and the confidence that creates can be a game changer,” says Kenny. “This collection is all about inspiring that confidence in your clients and the difference that can make for them.”
