ANDREW O’DONOGHUE | Future Stylist
Growing up in Rockland, New York, Andrew was always the kid with his hands in his hair—or his mother’s, for that matter. Constantly experimenting with different hairstyles and colors, his passion for hairdressing sparked early on and has only grown since. With a blended personal style of vintage flair and modern edge, Andrew’s aesthetic ranges from feminine to masculine. It’s eclectic, just like him.
Though Andrew has traveled to many places, Ireland holds a special place in his heart. His almost annual visits to his Irish homeland are inspiring and joyful, from its lush greenery and the charming animals to his family that’s always ready with open arms. However, in upstate New York, his lifelong home, holds the fondest memories, especially his parents’ annual summer BBQs with old and new friends.
After a short commute to New York City, he’s at the perfect playground for his creative spirit, where fashion and endless activities are constant sources of inspiration. Joining SBS was a no-brainer for Andrew. He feels it’s a place where creativity flourishes in a non-hostile, supportive environment. Everyone’s friendly and helps each other out, a camaraderie that fuels creativity and inspiration.
When he’s not in the salon, Andrew indulges in his other passions – playing video games, skateboarding, snowboarding, and having spontaneous adventures with friends. Fun fact: Andrew has a knack for building computers and a soft spot for Manga—his favorite reading material.
Friends describe Andrew as trustworthy, protective, and a peacekeeper. This combination of attributes makes him not just a good friend but also an essential building block to being a great hairdresser who listens, understands, and delivers.
