'That was the start of not just Rihanna, but Rihanna and her hair. For a long time, people assumed that a white, gay, L.A. hairstylist was cutting Rihanna's hair.

It's just my job to correct people, so they know that I'm not just the African-American expert; I'm a great hairstylist. With Ri, that trust is unsaid.'
