Benson
2022 Icon Hairstylist
Influencer of the Year
Why do you love what you do?
I love to work with others to see
what they know and share ideas to
inspire each other. I love to help
others succeed in their goals.
Where do you find inspiration?
I find inspiration in fashion,
technology, and mother nature.
How do you avoid burnout?
Find things outside the industry
you love to do. I love to be
outdoors—ATVing, fishing, and
being with friends and family.
What's your best tip for
marketing on social media?
Be real, be you—no one can be you!
What's one piece of
advice you'd give to a
new cosmetologist?
Believe in yourself, learn from
those around you, pay homage
to those you learn from, and
inspire those who look up to
you. Leave the industry better
than the way you found it.
