Kevin is a man of few words, but his artistry speaks volumes. Humble and quietly focused, he crafts each masterpiece with the precision of a magician, turning every haircut into an unforgettable experience. Renowned as one of Malaysia’s leading artists, Kevin’s reputation is built on his masterful precision and unwavering integrity in his profession.

To Kevin, cutting hair is not merely a skill—it’s an art form. Each snip, each movement, is part of a carefully orchestrated performance, requiring dedication and focus. His approach is not just technical, but deeply emotional—an intricate balance of passion, expertise, and a profound respect for each client’s individuality.

Kevin is celebrated for his ability to consistently deliver “wow” moments, where every look feels both meticulously crafted and surprisingly beautiful. Each haircut is a performance, a story told through every turn of the scissors, every flick of the wrist. It’s about uncovering the innate beauty of his clients, enhancing their natural features, and creating a look that feels uniquely theirs.
 

Kevin’s journey as a stylist has been driven by an unrelenting pursuit of growth.

With more than 20 years in the hairdressing industry, I’ve discovered that being a hairstylist is not just about perfecting techniques or crafting beautiful hair—it’s about earning and nurturing trust with each client.Each client who sits in my chair gives me the privilege of their trust, and I hold that with the utmost care and respect.

For me, hairdressing is more than just a service—it’s about creating a space where clients can feel heard and cared for. It’s not just about fulfilling their hair needs, but offering a moment of relief, a break from the world, where they can relax and feel seen. This connection, this deeply human exchange, motivates me every day.

 

We are not for everyone, and that’s okay. I don’t work with expectations; instead, I approach each client with an open heart and a sensitivity to their individual needs. My goal is always to go beyond what they expect, offering something more—a look that enhances not just their appearance, but their confidence and sense of self.

 

Having operated Centro Salon for over a decade, one thing has remained constant: my passion for helping people feel their best. Whether it’s a fresh haircut, a color transformation, or simply a moment of self-care, I am here to create an experience tailored to what clients want—not just what they need.

Having spent more than 20 years mastering the art of hairdressing, including a transformative period in London, I’ve cultivated a cosmopolitan perspective on beauty and style. For me, hairdressing is about achieving harmony—where practicality meets creativity, and simplicity meets expression. I believe a person’s style speaks volumes about who they are, and my goal is to bring that essence to life with precision, authenticity, and vitality.

 

Every client brings their own unique vibe, and my approach is to respect that. My job isn’t to impose something that doesn’t belong, but to enhance what’s already there. I hold myself to a higher standard—the do’s and don’ts—honoring both the art and science of hairdressing. It’s about making the process feel effortless, with results that are uniquely yours. Hairdressing doesn’t need to be extravagant or loud—it needs to be authentic, comfortable, and full of vitality.

My years in the industry have allowed me to experiment and refine my techniques. Trends may come and go, but what remains constant is my dedication to practical artistry. I approach every style with a deep respect for its natural flow and shape. It’s not about flamboyance, but about making a statement that feels right—effortlessly so.

What drives me every day is the satisfaction of creating a look that resonates with my clients. When someone sits in my chair, my aim is not just to cut or style, but to bring them a sense of confidence—making them feel seen and allowing them to shine.

My enthusiasm for hairdressing has only grown stronger. To me, hairdressing is not just a craft—it’s a continual evolution. In a world that’s constantly changing, I believe it’s important to always be open to new ideas and techniques. I’m constantly learning, adapting, and growing to stay ahead of trends while still honoring the timeless beauty of hair.

I take great pride in the relationships I build with my clients. Each conversation is an opportunity to truly listen, understand their desires, and explore what’s possible together. I respect each client’s vision and patiently share my thoughts and expertise, ensuring that they feel confident and comfortable in the process.

Self-doubt is inevitable, but I choose to face it with my clients, working alongside them as a partner. Together, we explore what’s possible, pushing past any doubts to create something beautiful and empowering. This partnership is what makes every style, every transformation, even more meaningful.
 

While I always stay true to my craft, I am also open to new ideas and techniques, adapting to what’s best for each client.

“I care deeply about my clients. They come to me not just for a haircut, but for beauty, change, and a renewed sense of confidence. My job is to make that happen.”

I believe the care we give is what truly sets us apart as hairstylists. It’s not just about creating the perfect look; it’s about creating a space where clients can see themselves differently through us. When that happens, it’s more than just a haircut—it’s an opportunity for a makeover, a shift in how we perceive ourselves and the possibilities ahead.
 

“Why not?” I’ve always been drawn to bold choices, especially when it comes to color and style. At Centro Salon, we create a space where clients can be bold—safely. It’s a place to take risks, try something new, and feel supported through the entire process, without fear of what could go wrong.

 

Every day, I push myself to learn, grow, and refine my craft. New experiences are something we never thought we’d venture into, but together, we’re always ready to take that step. Sometimes we venture alone, but at Centro, we do it together—with our clients, side by side, on this exciting journey of change.

​

Centro Salon is a place for boldness, a space where both clients and hairstylists can embrace transformation, a reset. That’s what we stand for—the courage to change and the belief that boldness is empowered, not just in the final result, but in every moment of the process.

 

What defines a great hairstylist isn’t just technique—it’s about fostering trust and ensuring every step of the journey feels supported and empowering.

I see hairstyling as more than just creating a look—it’s about telling a story. With every cut and every color, I strive to highlight and celebrate what makes you unique. Like the tattoos I wear—some bold, like the flower on my neck, and others subtle and symbolic—my work reflects a blend of contrasts: confident yet thoughtful, daring yet delicate.
 

I discovered my love for hairstyling during my time at the Act Academy in the UK, where I learned to merge technical skill with artistic sensitivity. For me, hairstyling is an art form that goes beyond trends. I approach every client with an artist’s eye, focusing on texture, color, and composition to create a style that doesn’t just look good but feels like an authentic extension of who you are.

 

What I enjoy most is using cuts and colors to frame and elevate your natural beauty. I see hair as a canvas where I can create a composition that brings focus and meaning to your personality. My goal is to ensure that every style I craft tells your story, putting the spotlight on what matters most—you.

​

Though I may appear calm and composed on the outside, I’m deeply sensitive to the individuality of each client. I listen carefully, taking time to understand who you are and what you want to express. This connection inspires me to create styles that feel effortless, comfortable, and uniquely yours.

 

For me, hairstyling is about more than technique. It’s about transformation and connection. Together, we’ll create a look that not only enhances your appearance but also empowers you to see yourself in a new light.

At Centro Salon, we believe that true artistry is born from a deep connection to our craft and to each other. As a team, we come together to create a space where beauty isn’t just seen—it’s felt, experienced, and lived.

 

Our team is united by one common goal: to help our clients look and feel their best. We are a collective of artists, each bringing a unique perspective and skillset, but all driven by the same passion for excellence and creativity. We thrive on collaboration, constantly learning, evolving, and pushing boundaries to create stunning transformations.

 

We believe in the power of subtlety and boldness, finding strength in effortless beauty and authenticity. Every client who sits in our chairs is met with a deep sense of care and respect. We are here to listen, understand, and guide them toward the perfect style—a style that not only enhances their appearance but also empowers them to feel confident and comfortable in their own skin.

 

At Centro Salon, we don’t just craft hair—we create experiences that leave lasting impressions. From a new haircut to a transformative color, we aim to inspire, elevate, and transform, one client at a time. Every snip, every color, every style is a reflection of our team’s dedication to making every moment feel special and every client feel like the best version of themselves.
