Why Nick Arrojo is a Must-See at HAIR The Movement
“Nick Arrojo is someone I’ve admired for years, both as a hairdresser and as a person. He’s an absolute master with scissors and, in particular, with a razor—his skill with that tool is second to none. Razor cutting is becoming increasingly popular, but I’ve noticed that it’s not always used as it should be. That’s one of the reasons I chose Nick to present at HAIR… The Movement. I wanted someone who could not only showcase the artistry of razor cutting but also educate and inspire others to use the tool with intention and precision.
What I love about Nick is that he’s the complete package. He started with the Sassoon system, which shaped so many of us, and has gone on to build an incredible career. He owns a salon and a school in New York, has created his own product range, and yet remains grounded, personable, and truly passionate about sharing his knowledge.
For me, it’s not just about his technical expertise—although that alone is extraordinary—it’s about who Nick is as a person. He’s genuine, approachable, and someone who cares deeply about the craft and the people within it. When he agreed to be part of this event, I was beyond excited. I know he’s going to bring so much value to HAIR… The Movement, and I can’t wait for everyone to see him in action.” Sharon Blain
