Audrey Hair Bang

At Eric’s Hair Studio, Eric Jeon snips every strand and curl with the grace and gravitas of more than 20 years of hairstyling experience. Amid potted plants and posters of stars such as Audrey Hepburn, clients of all ages and genders settle into swiveling chairs as Jeon trims, blow-dries, and colors hair with BES Color—an ammonia-free product imported from Italy and composed almost entirely of vegetable ingredients. To achieve soft, lustrous locks and eradicate frizz and curls, the studio infuses locks with keratin or a Japanese conditioning treatment, which uses thermal relaxers to straighten strands, vastly shortening the time it takes to style them into a topiary of Don King every morning.
