Benjamin Veloz Jr., is a professional licensed barber going on 6 years plus. Born and raised in the streets of Inglewood, CA, for Veloz, growing up was strictly all about the hustle. Barbershops were a big influence in urban cultures from the haircuts, the music you heard and the styles you picked up walking in and out of the shop everyday.<\/p>\n

“The barbershop was everything growing up, but it was also a visual into the world of being a boss. I’ll be cutting hair for the next 20 because I want to.\u00a0 Barber life is a bosses life, barber life is a hustlers life, the barber life is my life,” – Benjamin Veloz Jr.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"\"What gives you the most pride in the work that you do?<\/h4>\n

The freedom to be who I want to be. Nothing more to it than that. The fact that I get to just be me. Complete control of my life and it’s a damn blessing.\"\"<\/p>\n

What\u2019s your grooming routine?<\/h4>\n

I only follow California state board regulations. So that means only clean sanitized equipment ready for every haircut. There is never a routine in this game because every client is different. Every individual is unique in his or her way. All hair grows in different patterns.<\/p>\n

How would you describe your style and why do you choose that look?<\/h4>\n

I did not chose who I am, life chose me. I’ve only followed its path and the opportunities it has given me. It’s been beautiful.<\/p>\n

What and who inspires you?<\/h4>\n

Fighters. People that fight for what they want no matter the battle.<\/p>\n

What advice do you have for people who want to achieve success?<\/h4>\n

Pete Carroll once said that everyone should have a philosophy in life, so I did just that and wrote one down and followed it. \u201cAlways a student never a master, a master only has a need for mastering one thing and a student\u2019s is always and will forever be learning\u201d.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
