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!!!

Once again, I would like to extend my sincerest gratitude to J E T H A C K S R E C O V E R Y C E N T R E and please pass on to your staff my appreciation for all of the hard work. Few months ago I sought to recover my stolen cryptocurrency assets and after searching and searching and doing quite a bit of research I came across J E T H A C K S R E C O V E R Y C E N T R E and made a spot decision that changed my life, well actually my financial crisis, but in effect my life in general. The person on the other end explained in detail what the team would do for me and what their fees were. I was feeling like a lost child when I came to your firm having transferred my final savings to the scammers and they mysteriously vanished, along with their website which subsequently closed down a day after. I’m a 64 year old man so they easily exploited my inferior knowledge about crypto tradings to manipulate the numbers and led me to believe they were real. Once they figured I had exhausted all means of raising funds, they vanished and that was when I knew I had actually been dealing with internet scammers. I decided to give your firm a shot and see what happened to my funds. In a very short time I saw what the team had promised they would deliver. The team swiftly recouped my crypto assets from the scammers accounts within a short span of 3 days, like a miracle i checked my bank account and the funds was right there indeed your firm is the best Digital Assets Recovery firm in the entire universe. Your work and help has been most beneficial and helpful. In all reality you have helped us more than you realize and my family and I are in a very good position now. I can’t tell you how much we appreciate it!. I won’t hesitate to refer people to you, and wish you all the continued success in the world. The firm’s contact information are as follows; EMAIL : J E T H A C K S 7 @ G M A I L . C O M / T E L E G R A M : J E T H A C K S S
I am writing this today to express my sincere appreciation for all the work you and your team has done for me in retrieving my USDT assets from a cheating investment platform that I acquainted myself with through their broker agent on LinkedIn. I was not sure what I was getting myself into when I spoke with you a month ago…I did not think you could get my USDT assets extracted from the scammers as soon as you did. I was very skeptical at first because it was my first time hearing of someone not to mention a firm capable of tracing and retrieving digital assets lost to fraudulent transactions. After being turned down for a withdrawal request, I approached their support desk and the agent for assistance but to my dismay they were asking me for some sort of settlements each time before I Could withdraw my funds. A friend from work said to look up " Digital assets recovery solutions " in the Internet and so I did. After going through about a dozen different infos on firm’s and recovery agents, I was getting a bit discouraged then I finally saw your J E T H A C K S RECOVERY CENTRE info and liked the reviews I read. No red-flags went off so I decided to make contact. It was an easy, laid-back conversation explaining everything that can be done to recoup my digital assets and improve my financial situation. It sounded good to me so I took you up on your offer. In just three days of hard work on J E T H A C K S team part, my USDT assets was successfully recovered from the scam platform. I realize not everyone has the same recovery problems but you folks were fast and really worked for me and am assured your services will help many others as well, you can contact the firm using their contact informations below,

I have just recently had my stuck Bitcoin assets removed from my account with a certain investment platform on Facebook, thanks to J E T H A C K S RECOVERY CENTRE. The man who dealt with my case was awesome. Initially when I decided to look for any tangible solution I didn’t imagine Digital Assets Recovery Firm would be the answer. I have never worked with hackers before but desperate times they say calls for desperate measures and I also had a very good feeling in the firms capabilities to accurately handle my case as they have done so many times in the past for his clients. I first ventured into cryptocurrency investment in 2021 with a friend as an investment into the future, the potential of cryptocurrency is limitless but unfortunately, this also has its downside. Initially, I was hoarding my cryptocurrency assets on Blockchain and making slow but consistent profits. However, I decided to register with a cryptocurrency trading company earlier this year with the purpose of accumulating more bitcoins, which nearly resulted in a massive loss for me. Shortly after investing over 700,000 usd with the company, they suddenly shutdown their website and abruptly cut off all means of communication with me. I felt betrayed and unable to eat properly for almost a month. The pain of losing my hard-earned money so quickly was overwhelming, and I couldn’t stop blaming myself for trusting a superficially legitimate company without conducting thorough research. It was during this period that I thought about doing some research’s online for solution, I came across reviews about a crypto recovery firm ‘’J E T H A C K S RECOVERY CENTRE" that has experience in helping individuals recover their digital assets and improve their financial situation. I contacted them through their Telegram username @ J E T H A C K S S and provided them with details of the investment I had made with the scammers. They assured me that my case would be accurately handled. 2 days later I got a message from the team that my funds had been successfully recouped which was confirmed immediately I opened my wallet to my greatest surprise, this single act resurrected my life for good and am forever grateful to the team for their invaluable help.
I had a very terrible Experience with a scam cryptocurrency investment platform. It all started when I got a message from a trader on my Telegram who told me about their crypto investment platform and all its benefits for crypto newbies. They assured me of a decent fixed ROI on every of my investment weekly which got me really interested, the idea of a secondary source of income appealed to me because I was closing in on retirement and I haven’t got enough savings to last me for when I have retired. I ended up investing a total of $108,000.00 worth of bitcoin over the period of 3 months with assurances of successful withdrawals upon request which I did a few successful trial withdrawals in the first month. However the third withdrawal didn’t go as expected and when I reached out to support I was instructed to clear some fees first which my referrer also confirmed it was safe, long story cut short.. I cleared 4 different fees but still did not receive my funds.. but they kept asking for more money so I realized that I was being scammed. I couldn’t afford to lose my life savings, that would be the end of me. I was devastated and depressed for days before eventually deciding to research online situations like mine luckily I might find something positive and that was how I came across reviews about J E T H A C K S RECOVERY CENTRE. I read several impressive reviews about them from various scam victims and how the firm has helped them in recovering their stolen or lost crypto assets so I decided to contact them for help. Fortunately the team lived up to his reputation, it was on the third day when I got a deposit confirmation on my blockchain wallet which I checked and confirmed, I couldn’t have been more happier. You can also contact J E T H A C K S RECOVERY CENTRE as they are capable of helping you retrieve back whatever you may have lost to online investment scammers.
