Truong Dahn Stylist
Truong Danh is an award-winning stylist who started in the profession in 2001. His hair cutting and styling is a combination of the uniform sharp edges of Vidal Sassoon and the movement of Toni & Guy. Truong only utilizes top color lines, Schwarzkopf and Wella and has earned his certifications in Brazilian and Keratin Blowouts.
His favorite cuts include short modern styles and precise razor cuts. He also excels at dry cutting, an important finishing technique for a great haircut. Truong takes continuing education classes every year to stay current in cut, coloring and foiling techniques.
His client list is a healthy mix of men and women.
He makes a conscious effort to listen to customers and their desires to make sure they are on the same page. “A client shouldn’t be wondering what they’re going to get,” Truong says. “There should be no mystery about it, whether it’s the first time I’m seeing them or the hundredth time.”
His goal is to make each client feel comfortable and confident and to provide them with a style they will truly love, not only the first time they see him, but every time after.
This is the case for online personality Donna Kozik. “I do a lot of speaking at conferences and webcasts, and when people ask where I get my hair done, I rave about Truong and his dedication to making me look good,” says Donna. “I know with Truong I’m going to get great color, cut and service. I highly recommend him to anyone who wants their hair to look fabulous!”
