| At 45, 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 Ahamed, a
renonwed 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 in French
Literature from JNU, New Delhi. He went to London's
Morris School of Hair Dressing and London School of
Fashion for a 2 year course in the art and science of
Hair Styling and Grooming.
Back in India Jawed rewrote the script and made
color fashionable and acceptable across all
sections of society. No wonder, cosmetics and personal
hair care giant Hindustan Unilever (Indian arm of Unilever) picked him as
its Brand Ambassador for
its brand 'Sunsilk'.
As of today, Jawed Habib has over 130+
Salons. Jawed Habib plans to increase this to 200
within the next 6 months. He has 30+ trichology schools in
major towns and is planning to increase this to 50 shortly.
He has managed such explosive growth with
keen attention to customer satisfaction and assured
quality. 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 the Limca Book of
World Records with a feat of 410 non - stop hair cuts in
a day. Jawed was official Hair Stylist to the
contestants for Miss India 2003.
