Success begins with a state of mind, if you want success start thinking of yourself as a success.
Greetings, My name is Jeanette C. H. Frederick , I am a licensed barber and cosmetologist with over 30 years of experience. I obtained my cosmetology Instructors license in 1996 and was grateful for the opportunity when I received a call 25 years ago to teach cosmetology where I received my training, I enjoy educating the future professionals of the industry and preparing them for the real world. My brother DeWayne Hill Sr and I are co-owners of a barber/ stylist salon in Summerville SC which has been in business for over 30 years. I am also the salon owner of Tricholistik Hair Restoration & Wellness Studio where I service clients that are experiencing hair loss or thinning, while working behind the chair for many years I saw that there was a need to educate myself more extensively on hair loss, after my research on the areas of study that I needed to better serve my clients I became a certified holistic hair practitioner as well as a non-surgical hair replacement specialist. I then enrolled in American Academy of Hair and Scalp Diseases for 18 months and received my Trichology Certification. I strive to be successful in my business for myself and for my clients, Educating myself is my motivation in order for me to elevate.

My name is Dewayne Marion Hill Sr. I am a native of Summerville SC and also a 1992 graduate of Summerville High School. I have been working as a Master Barber stylist in this industry over 30 years. I always knew throughout my childhood days that I wanted to follow in my father’s (Marion Hill) footsteps as a barber. I always admired how he loved the art of barbering and even though I wasn’t old enough to enroll in Barber school my dad would always educate me on his tools and also talk about the history of barbering in which I thought was so fascinating. I can remember during my preteen days I would go to work with my dad on Saturdays and I got to see him in action honing the razor, listening to barber shop talk ,watching his shaving and haircutting techniques, and he also had a few students training under him due to he had his OJT(on the job training license) My Father was a Barber instructor as well as a Cosmetology Instructor so watching him in action giving constructive criticism to his barbers as well as his trainees I had no doubt that I would be taught by the best ,my interest of becoming a barber became even stronger, fast forward to my junior year In High School I enrolled in evening classes at LaParisienne Cosmetology Institute in Charleston SC. My father was an instructor there, as well as one of the co-owners of the Cosmetology institute, I was so excited because I was finally able to start my journey to become a barber and what better way to learn than to be taught by my father. By the time I was a senior in high school, I received my Master Hair care specialist License and I was also the youngest licensed barber in Summerville SC at the time. I am very proud to say that I am carrying out my father’s legacy of over 30 years, I am the co-owner of Marion’s Barber and Hairstyling Center located in Summerville SC.
