MASTERS by Winn Claybaugh Features Legendary Stylist and Entrepreneur Van Council

SANDY, Utah - June 15, 2023 - PRLog -- Van Council and his brother Michael launched their first Van Michael Salon in 1984, a full-service Aveda Concept Salon in Atlanta, Georgia. Their goal was simple: a high-quality salon that offered the latest cut and color techniques in a creative, non-intimidating environment. Before long, Van had won such prestigious awards as North American Hairstylist of the Year, Avant Garde Stylist of the Year, and Makeover Stylist of the Year, as well as becoming a member of the elite Aveda Global Masters Team.

Using his business savvy, Van expanded his beauty empire to seven salons in the Atlanta area and broadened the range of services to appeal to everyone. A further partnership resulted in 42 additional Van Council signature salons throughout Japan.

These days, the Van Michael Salon is one of the most successful in the country, boasting a bigger celebrity client list than many of its LA and NY counterparts. Van himself stays busy with his ever-expanding schedule of private and celebrity clients as well as utilizing his creative and technical expertise as one of the leading spokespeople for Aveda worldwide. He also serves as fashion director for the prestigious Intercoiffure America/Canada.

Interviewed by Winn Claybaugh, Van Council holds nothing back in this MASTERS issue. This legendary, brilliant artist and business entrepreneur masterfully addresses the opportunities for greater success for salon owners, veteran hairdressers, and new talent.
