At its core, Bumble and bumble is about giving people the tools, the confidence, and the freedom to express themselves through hair.
MODERN Facebook fan Nicholas Moore-Perez shows how he features his color work on his business cards to get new clients in his chair--PLUS get the formulas!

MODERN Facebook fan Nicholas Moore-Perez, a colorist at Glitz Salon in Orion, Michigan, created this photoshoot to use on his business cards, as a way to showcase his color skills.
“I decided when I began doing hair that I would always use my own work on my cards,” he says. “For this collection I wanted to create something that would intrigue different types of clientele. Something edgy, modern but still wearable for the everyday client.”
