MY STORY

Hey there, I’m Byrd Mena, the guy who decided that "just cutting hair" wasn’t enough. From taking the stage at global events to collaborating with major brands, I’ve spent years helping barbers and hairstylists unlock their creativity and build careers that go way beyond the chair. Whether it’s mentoring or launching projects, I’m here to elevate the game for everyone in the industry.

WHY DO I TEACH?

My artistic ability is what helped me to dig deep and discover who I am inside. I can’t imagine where I would be without this medium.

As I looked at the people in my life struggling to find themselves, I realized that my creativity could inspire others to look inside and discover what makes them truly happy too.

Everyone has an artist inside. Some of us just need a little more help bringing that inner artist to life. To me, watching others create something they never thought possible is the best feeling in the world.

MY VALUES

Be unapologetically you.

There is only one you, and art is a great way to uncover and express who you really want to be deep down.

I believe my paintings not only make the world a better place, but they also shape the people who experience them in beautiful ways. I love that I am able to take it a step further and help other artists find satisfaction in creating their own masterpieces.
