This husband and father of two sons turned a one chair shop into an 11 seater and we just had to have him on Team GIBS. Meet Steve Vilot, and grab a pen.
Describe yourself in five words: Dad, husband, barber, friend and sex symbol.
You made it to Team GIBS. What’s your secret? I’m a 26 year, overnight success story. Write and draw your dreams on paper in details. My dreams have appeared. over and over and over.
What are you known for? I grew up in a small town; I had to take care of everybody. Age, race, short, long, beards and shaves. I have found my hair tricks cross over; the real depth comes through.
What do you want us to know about you? I love to cut hair. I’m constantly visualizing to the flow. It’s a live instant art project. I was in the business for 13+ yrs when I was featured in Milady Textbook. Then I started working for the Art of Shaving doing popup shaves in store. Working in New York and Boston regularly changed my world. I was hired to teach P!nk how to do a fake shave for a movie in which she plays a barber. Next thing I know I’m on tour with Eminem... then Dave Mathews. It’s been fun.
Favorite GIBS combo? Hitman Texturizing Spray and Outlaw Hair Spackle. I do three to four sprays of Hitman and blow-dry… another three to four sprays, more blow dry. Then light with Outlaw. It rocks. Every time.
Tips for aspiring barbers/stylists coming up in the game? I have been gifted the ability to take my tools across the world because I put in 110%. Don’t treat this profession as a side hustle.
How you enjoying Team GIBS? The GIBS family is something I didn’t see until it happened. It’s Merry Christmas, Happy New Year AND Thanksgiving with 20plus like-minded hair professionals. It’s powerful.
Eminem, Dave Matthews… You do a lot of big names. Surprisingly, they have a hard time finding a barber to take care of the whole crew. That’s why the small town barber is a great fit to take care of them all. With Dave Mathews, I do 62 people, from Dave to the bus driver. With Eminem, I do 16 people and my favorite is shaving Paul Rosenberg’s head. Paul is Em’s manager and CEO of Def Jam Records. They take me around the world to do it.
What makes a great barber/stylist? Passion to cut, shave and style your friends. Everyone that sits in my chair is an instant friend.
You bring more to the table: I tour as a barber and I love it. I have two shops in my hometown of Pittsfield, Massachusetts and started my new chapter in October 2017, with Barber Authority Nashville. Stay tuned!!!

I never believed Crypto recovery to be a real thing Till I worked with JETHACKS RECOVERY CENTRE, a competent Crypto recovery firm I came to know through his positive reviews of how he helped Scam victims recover their lost investments. I had a mammoth amount of funds through a spurious investment platform which nearly took me for almost $804,000 in USDT assets. The peculiar fact I’ve come to realize with this scam is it whole fully embodies the phrase ‘’ the more you look the less you see ‘’ because with each day that passes, births forth to a deeper grave I was unknowingly digging for myself. What started as a tentative investment of $3000 later turned into a hundreds of thousands of dollars. I really give it up to these guys, the geniusness of this hoax is so so good that one never realizes what is truly going on until is has become too late. This right here was my exact situation and so similar to that of many other people as well. The unraveling point of everything was at the very last minute upon my consultation with the JETHACKS RECOVERY CENTRE whom I dedicate this testimony to, as a token of my appreciation to you and your team of fine hackers, you guys are the true MVPs. Initially I was allowed perform a few simultaneous withdrawals which was successful but it was all part of their plan, this will in turn blind my blind my eyes to the bigger picture and allow me to trust them wholeheartedly, enough to invest my entire life savings. I couldn’t afford anymore of their incessant fees after already giving up everything so you can understand the betrayal and disappointment I felt knowing I had lost everything to scammers but as luck would have it, I stumbled upon a testimony from a previous client of JETHACKS RECOVERY CENTRE which tipped me off to the existence of such services. I took no delay and got in touch with the firm via email JETHACKS7 @ GMAIL . com, the team immediately examined the my case and assured me it is very much possible to resolve and within the next 48 hours, my USDT assets was successfully recovered and what Bless day that was. The team is also active on Telegram, with the handle @ JETHACKSS
Few months ago I found myself in a very challenging situation and was in need of serious help like never before. like many others, I was approached on Telegram by a lady that operates under the ‘’Alias’’ Diane CFO to hide their real identity. She was the admin to crypto mining group which later she added me into the group to further verify her company’s legitimacy, seeing many active investors in the group deceived me into believing they were real as I later found out upon my session with J E T H A C K S R E C O V E R Y C E N T R E the documents and payment proofs I observed on the group were all doctored. Prior to this discovery, I believed them to be true and for a straight 2 months period, I’d wake up everyday to watch my life funds of £807k excluding the profits I’ve earned over the course of my investment and it’s just sitting there on my lion mining finance account, you can look up the company on Google .. please beware of the company, it’s a fake crypto mining company that nearly made away with my money but thanks to J E T H A C K S R E C O V E R Y C E N T R E I was able to retrieve it all back to my wallet safely. I reached out to the Excellent Hacking Team on their official TELEGRAM Username : J E T H A C K S S where I shared all the necessary requirements and proofs to enable the tracing of my funds without any issues and it’s swift recovery. I write this here today as a token of my appreciation to the whole team, you guys are the best. Below is also their Email contact address for anyone who’s looking for a way to recover their funds from these fraudulent online establishments out there, you can write a message to Telegram username above or to EMAIL : J E T H A C K S 7 @ G m a i l. c o m
The sudden loss of my entire savings while trying to navigate the business of crypto currency investment struck home. Today, It feels like the online space is being monitored and controlled by these scammers who are only worried about the next person to defraud. They seem obsessed with reaching the tippy-top of the pile of souls, and they don’t care who gets squashed along their way. Even at my lowest point they still refused to confirm my payout, I never felt so betrayed and abandoned as i was struggling after becoming a single parent. The fraud company had gotten what it wanted out of me (free labor and a brand new future pile of debts in my arms), so now I didn’t matter anymore. I was hurting in every way, and nobody seemed to care – they just kept coming up with excuses and asked for a deposit each time . Economic realities + a lack of support = my inability to meet up to meet up with fee, I tried and I simply couldn’t hack the never-ending demands. Faced with the daunting reality of loosing such a significant sum, I sought alternative avenues for assistance. It was then that I stumbled upon a Crypto recovery firm J E T H A C K S R E C O V E R Y C E N T R E operating on Telegram under the handle @ J E T H A C K S S. Not seeing much option for me, I decided to enlist their services. Providing the team with some available details regarding my transactions with the fraud company , they launched a process to retrieve my funds. I had my doubts and edginess but at the end, the firm’s professionalism and competence was flawlessly put to very high efficient use and my funds was successfully recovered within the very short span of 2 days. This experience has been an eye opener for me and I’ve come to realize the importance of vigilance and due diligence when indulging in any form of financial investments, most especially in the digital world. I also advise seeking professional assistance from a reputable recovery service such as J E T H A C K S 7 @ G M A I L . C O M for those dealing with similar crisis, their services has proven to be very effective in helping people retrieve what’s rightfully theirs.
