Friends (9)About Me
I am trying to diversify my portfolio. I have a lot of TV/Film/Broadway/Wig Making experience...but my resume is kind of light on Editorial work. I am in the union, but I take non-union jobs.
Looking for connections with Photographers who can keep me busy when I'm not working backstage or on a set. Also looking for models who need their hair done for a shoot - or if you need extensions - "tracks" of hair, or if you want or need something more delicate, I am a wig artisan and can hand tie a custom blended hair piece that you can clip in for shoots....or for everyday life. Additional information: Aaron Kinchen is freelance hairdresser and wig maker for stage and film in NYC. 10 years into his career working in the salon business, he made a successful transition into the entertainment industry as a wigmaker.
