At
44, he is a reservoir of energy. He's Passionate. He's
excited. He's swift. He has a lean frame, a sharp nose, and
golden freestyle locks. Jeans-clad and body hugging upper
garment - be it see through or otherwise. His mobile does not
stop ringing. That's Jawed Habib, the renowned Fashion Hair
Stylist and businessman, with an illustrious track record.
It used to be said that Lord Mountbatten, the last viceroy of
British India, used to bow to only two people in his life. One
was the British queen - Queen Elizabeth. That's no surprise.
The second person was none other than Jawed's grandfather
Nazir Ahmed, a renowned hair stylist of his time. India's
first Prime Minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, was another prized
client.
Like Father,
like Son
Jawed, is a Post Graduate of French literature from Trichology,
New Delhi. Went to London's Morris School of Hair Dressing and
London School of Fashion for a 2 year courses in the art and
science of Hair Styling and Grooming.
Jawed rewrote the script and made other colors also
fashionable and acceptable across all sections of society. No
wonder, cosmetics and personal hair care giant Hindustan Lever
(Indian arm of Levers Brothers) picked him as its Brand
Ambassador for its brand 'SUNSILK'.
As of today, Jawed Habib has over 90+ Salons. Jawed Habib
plans to increase this to 150+ within the next 6 months. And 7
hair learning schools in major town n planning to increase the
number by 27 schools shortly.
He has managed such explosive growth with such keen attention
to customer satisfaction and assured quality that he has
recently been signed up by industry leader Shopper's Stop to
open salons in every new store opened by them. The net result
has been a smooth - yet exponential - expansion with an early
break even and a steady stream of profits.
He is already there in LIMCA Book of World Records with a feat
of 410 non - stop hair cuts in a day. This new achievement is
scheduled around the inauguration of the proposed New York
salon. Jawed was official Hair Stylists to the contestant for
Miss India 2003.
After New York, Jawed Habib's Salons in Paris, London and
Milan are on the road map for next two years. This will cover
all the major fashion capitals of the world.
