Ryan’s passion for cutting hair began back in high school, where he started by giving haircuts to close friends. Inspired by the sense of community and craftsmanship he experienced at local barbershops, he developed an early appreciation for the art of a clean fade and sharp lineup.
After graduating college with a business degree, Ryan explored various corporate roles but found himself yearning for a career that aligned with his true interests. Encouraged by a friend, he decided to pursue barbering and enrolled in barber school. Upon earning his license, Ryan obtained certifications in both Rhode Island and Massachusetts.
Ryan gained experience working in a variety of barbershops, each offering unique cutting techniques and styling approaches. Drawing on the best practices from those experiences, he launched Clippers Barber Lounge, blending his passion for barbering with his entrepreneurial spirit to create a modern, welcoming space for clients of all ages.
