He also goes into the high schools
recruiting students for a career in hair
care. “I like teaching the next round of
professionals, passing on the torch and
sharing what I know with others. That’s
what I enjoy about the career the most.
Doing hair is a passion – yes, but I like
seeing the light bulbs go off over the
next generation that I’m teaching and
their stability. I love giving back and
being a business owner that touches
the lives of others.”
Coleman’s community spirit goes
beyond his work and encouraging the
hair stylists of the future. Touched by
hearing that some student would show up for school with
no shoes, his salon began to help with the mission of Schools
shoes for children from preschool age through high school.
“We ask our guests to donate a pair of new shoes and
they receive a complimentary $35 conditioning treatment and
blow dry style for the donation of the shoes. We’ve been doing
that for a year now and we’ve donated at least 200 pairs of
shoes,” Coleman said with obvious satisfaction.
In addition, co-owner Michael Berthelette, is the Chief
Currently Michael serves as an Ambassador for The Central
Pasco Chamber of Commerce and on the Membership Committee
for the North Tampa Bay Chamber of Commerce. Some
of his stylists also reach out into the community by attending
Business Network International meetings
to network with other local businesses
that they support and encourage
through references.
Coleman says he tries to stay affordable
and competitive basing his prices
on the acronym RED, that is reputation,
education and demand, meaning that as
the salon grows and his stylists get more
experience their charges will increase in
the future as any desirable skill increases
in value. As he looks to the future,
he is working on what he calls a “level”
system so that he has stylists whose ex-

ing to their experience and skill level.
If you are not sure what you want, the stylists at Pure
Hair Co. will perform a thorough consultation to help create
the style you are looking for. Hair styling is not like the old
days when you had posters on the wall and someone chose
a style they liked, Coleman recalled, Modern technology has
led to more choices and many come in with a style they want,
but when people come in and don’t know how they want
their hair done, Coleman and his stylists take them to the
phone for a “portfolio consultation” to show them the different
types of hairstyles from which they can choose.
