We had the good fortune of connecting with Aaron Norris and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Aaron, what do you attribute your success to?
Marketing myself. “show and selling” an exprience that delivers confidence and a desired look!

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
What’s sets me apart are a few things Understanding it’s all about “presentation”
being professional and inviting at the same time.

Second: Skills sets in marketing; videography, photography & editing
This has helped me get ahead. reaching out and being able to work with brand around the world.

Lastly: Skill set in barbering! clipper work and shearwork ! understanding styles and trends in hair. keeping up with the latest and breaking down these styles to help others learn to execute them!

I’m most proud about the connection i’ve made over in the UK going back periodically to learn and cut hair has been an accomplishment for me! hi elegy just being successful overall with everything i’ve done in this short time of my career!

It wasn’t easy getting where i am today lots of late night video editing sessions, long nights cutting hair, thinking of the direction i wanna go! what i want the page to look like.
the presentation of it all!
i over came challenges by eventually creating a team of people who have skill sets that could help me further my reach and craft. all while trading haircuts and keeping them fresh !
My brand is about blending barbering and the digital arts! as well as blending clippers into shear work! all while keeping up with modern and classic haircuts and styles.

 

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
I don’t actually get out much at all! i’m usually creating content! but if i had to say, maybe travel out to wilmington for the beach town scenes. the alamo movie theaters had a retro 80s vibe. and urben outfitters cool dress vibe ! wral soccer park to play! gym! That’s about it.

 

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
My Clients old and new! without a loyal clientele base to be there when i first began, there is no way i could be as good as i am in such a short period of time. all due to reps and making mistakes. but making sure i get better and deliver for my client base.

Second, Family!
the support at shows, late night haircut session & helping with kids, and really just being there while i sacrifice my and their time for the brand to grow!

Lastly my Instructor
Mr. William Graham lead director over at wake tech barberschool.
