Professional Wholesale Hair Products

"As stylists we are responsible for sculpting the styles of our very own streets. We are artists with a hair brush, designers with a flat iron, and our graffiti streams from our aerosol can. We fit no mold. We are all unique, as are the clients we shape. It's a passion for hair that bonds us and our love to create." Eric Alan Nelson, Stylist and Founder, Sidlab Haircouture I come from a family of hair dressers. Both grandmas, an aunt and my older brother. As a child my grandmother babysat my brother and I out of her home salon. This is where we experimented: curling, colouring and cutting. I don't think there is a colour or cut we didn't try through those years. Then came the alternative movement and friends piled in for cuts. Then came hair school where my first instructor and his crippling comment that burned forever into my forehead: "You should drop out and get your money back because no one would want someone with wild hair to do their hair."My mohawk and I did get our refund. I left crying on my motor scooter and off I rode. It wasn't until my brother completed hair school and encouraged me to go back did I find the courage to return. After graduating hair school, my dream was to work for a top haircare company. Once it came true, I realized that my new commercialized and corporate dream job wasn't close to what I imagined. The fashion and hair conglomerates I looked up to cared more about bottom line than hair. I was a hairdresser to the core and couldn't sell out.

Bruised and disappointed by corporate mantra, but eagerly looking forward to returning to my roots, back behind the chair I went. It was here, behind the chair that Sidlab was born from one simple thought: why not start a small passionate hair product company that cares more about updo's than up selling. A company that could deliver innovative professional wholesale salon products which I needed to keep up with my clients and our ever changing culture. Why not a company that loves hair?
