March 2, 2026 - Exciting news for barber enthusiasts in Fox Chase! 🚨🚨 Opening March 2nd  🚨🚨 at 7961 Oxford Ave. Philadelphia PA 19111. 

Growing up in the Castor Gardens section of Philadelphia, I attended Philadelphia Public Schools and later graduated from Empire Beauty School in 2005. 

With years of experience in hair cutting, I’ve learned that every day in this barbering industry is a new opportunity. I started cutting hair in my parents' basement during high school, and attending Empire Beauty School allowed me to work in various shops, including Holland Barber Shop, where Jimmy was the owner, as well as the Navy Exchange in NE Philly, Head Artist Barber Shop, Hair Razor, and L.B. Cuts. 

In 2008, I briefly left the hair industry for a new career path, but by 2012, I returned to barbering full-time, focusing on the Mayfair/Holmesburg section of Philadelphia. 

In 2016, I proudly opened my first shop, L. K. T. Trendsetters Salon, which has been an amazing journey. The name 'L.K. T.' represents my kids' names (Landon, Kingston, and Trayce), and 'Trendsetters' was a name they chose. I always believed that my children should pick the name of my business since it’s ultimately for them. 

Thank you for your support, and I can't wait to meet you soon!
