Kim Kardashian's Personal Hairstylist Is Now Launching a Hair Brand
Philip Wolff and Chief Behr are two of the most sought-after hairstylists in the world.
In part one of this series, Wolff shares how he realized he had a natural knack for cutting hair at a young age and that it was his mother who encouraged him to pursue hair as a career. Born in Landstuhl, Germany, Wolff lived and traveled throughout Europe before moving to Washington, D.C., in his early teens. At 20 years old, Wolff started as an apprentice at a Toni & Guy concept salon in Maryland. He then became a hair stylist at PR at Partners, a U.K.-based company with 15 locations in D.C. Wolff made a name for himself, establishing a long list of loyal clientele, but in 2004 he needed a change and decided to move to L.A.
