This Salon Manager turned Creative Director turned Young Entrepreneur believes in blending hard work with smart work as the recipe to success. Varun spoke to Salon India about his journey and future plans

Getting Started

My career graph has been the most astonishing. I started as a Manager with LOOKS Salon. Through the process of learning and improving, I became the Head Creative Art Director at their head office. Since then, I have never looked back. The most gratifying part of my job is working with celebrities. I have met and built a great relationship with each one of them. My customers value my service and I enjoy customising hairstyles and other services to enhance their persona. Along with hard work, one needs to work smart, as well to achieve their goals.

From a hairdresser to an entrepreneur

It has been a tough but fruitful journey. The decision to become an entrepreneur is based on self-belief, hard work and popularity of my work. There are some clients who visit me from other states and even countries only to avail my service which is a humbling experience. It has motivated me to create my own brand. I have met extraordinary mentors like Sanjay Dutta Sir and Danish Batra.
