Angel Gonzalez
@princeangell
My name is Angel, some of my clients call me Prince! I have been in the industry for sixteen years and I love what I do.
I grew up in Houston, TX in a Mexican/American Household. My Father taught me “No one is watching out for you but you” With that Being my Motto in Life I always found ways to keep pushing hard and working as best as I can in my career.
Starting Cosmetology school at the age of 19, naturally I gravitated toward Cutting Hair. The movement, the texture, and the speed of cutting hair pushed my life to creatively build my future in Hair Styling.
I was a master cutter in a major salon in Houston for 10years. Reaching the top of my ladder in 2015, I decide to move to Los Angeles in 2016. Los Angeles, Instagram, and celebrities taught me what to perfect in hair styling. Everyday I am learning something new with hair, networking, and work ethics.
In the Hair community it can be extremely intimidating and competitive, but I always remembered my fathers words “No One Is watching out for you but you”.
