Bio
Kim Vo is an American celebrity hairstylist and colourist best known for appearing as a judge on the reality competition television Shear Genius, since 2008.
An artist by choice and training, Vo has turned hair into his canvas. Now recognized as a top colourist, he has dedicated himself to painting the perfect colour on every head he works on.
He is a renowned stylist to celebrities that include Kate Hudson, Goldie Hawn, Kirsten Dunst, Kim Cattrall, Teri Hatcher, Lara Flynn Boyle, Britney Spears and many more.
Born in Vietnam and raised in Europe, Vo eventually settled in Los Angeles where, after a stint at two of Beverly Hills' top salons, Cristophe and Prive, he opened B2V in 2001.
Here he was able to develop and refine his own special approach to colour, a technique that enables him to insure that hair and complexion are totally compatible and always with a natural look.
His technique is that of a painter, layering the colours, shade by shade, on the head by lifting the hair, piece by piece, and applying colour accordingly.
Vo has made B2V a reflection of his philosophy - that the salon experience should be stress free, offering a warm relationship between the client and those he is serving.
Marrying his Vietnamese and French background, he also launched a unique product line for both hair care and hair styling, created for color-treated hair, in conjunction with the opening of his newest salon Kim Vo at The Mirage in Las Vegas.
Affiliated with L'Oreal as a master colourist and International Guest Artist, Vo has also developed his own collection of products for coloured hair.
In addition to his salon reputation as a top colourist, Vo is also known as "King of the TV Makeovers." A regular on the series Extreme Makeover, which he has been doing since its inception, he also regularly appears on E! Entertainment's Daily l0, on USA, and Oxygen's show Tease.
