TOMO Tomo brings a fresh unique style and skill to the Jim Wayne Salon. "Success and knowledge is achieved by overcoming hardship, through self-discipline, and through personal striving for a perfection that one knows is not possible but remains a worthy goal", say's Tomo. Both Tomo's attitude and dexterity have contributed to his success. Tomo was first introduced to the beauty industry at his aunt's infamous "Venus" salon in Ehime, Japan. "We are the best at what we do. We excel at the art of listening", says Tomo's aunt. He was taught traditional eastern techniques inured to change hair color and texture. Despite success and growth in his native country Tomo decided to move to America in order to explore how to cut hair. After getting his cosmetology license Tomo began looking for a salon that would provide him with training to further his artistic approach to cutting. After interviewing at several Beverly Hills salons, Tomo was introduced to Jim Wayne. From that point on Jim Wayne would mentor and help cultivate Tomo's cutting technique. Similar to Wayne, he creates styles for his clients that make them feel strong, desirable, and beautiful but still comfortable in their daily lives.
