Renée Gadar was her family’s hairdresser by age 9 and became known as the community
“kitchen beautician” by age 14. While hair was always a part of her life, she spent a few years
as a seventh- and eighth-grade math teacher honing the skill to educate. As a hair care
professional, Renée worked at Arrojo Studio as a hair cutter in New York for six years,
becoming a senior stylist while advancing her skills in textured hair. She continues to learn while
understanding the more one discovers, the more there is to know. Drawing from her earliest
hairdressing days to her current epiphanies and expertise, she strives to educate others about
the fascinating range and depth of all hair textures. Renée has applied many of these skills as
the Aveda Global Artistic Director of Texture where she lead shoots, built concepts, developed
product for textured hair and wrote education for both the salon spaces and cosmetology
schools. While noticing the gaps in these spaces, Renee worked toward changing laws for
better inclusivity in the beauty space leading to a change in licensure. Now back to being
independent, Renee is building education of her own.
