I’m Tito and I have a passion for design and creativity. I got in tune with my creative side as a young child, drawing and trying to replicate things that caught my attention. My passion for cutting hair started through that same love of wanting to design things as kid. I love working with people and making them look their best. I have over 20 years of experience and am very friendly, so if you care about looking your best, I am your guy.
