About Michael
Michael DeLucia has been shaping hair in Los Angeles since the '90s, and his cuts are still some of the most recognizable in the city. He started at Jose Eber, assisting a master of volumetric cutting. He then joined former Jose Eber owner Laurent Dufourg at Privé on Melrose Place, where he blew out every cut Laurent did, including shoots with the biggest stars and models of the '90s. He went on to spend many years as the cutter for Michael Canale, the colorist known for Jennifer Aniston's iconic color.
Every cut is built in stages: shaped wet, styled with his signature blowout, then perfected dry. Many of his angles were passed down from the stylists who trained him and are rarely seen in salons today. The result is soft, natural movement that holds its shape as it grows.
Clients come back as much for the conversation as the cut. Mikey's appointments feel like catching up with a friend, and that mix of skill and connection has kept people in his chair for decades.
