Lorraine trained under Rick Haylor, co-founder & lead trainer of John Frieda Salons and was hired as Truman’s first stylist at Truman’s Midtown Manhattan location. At Truman’s, Lorraine is the "go to" stylist for New York's most discerning clients including dignitaries, professional athletes, actors, entertainment personalities, and global business leaders.Lorraine has been featured in several national and regional publications for her expertise in men’s grooming. But ask Lorraine what she enjoys most about men’s grooming, and she will always say it goes back to teaching the intricacies of the craft to passionate stylists.As Truman’s Creative Director, Lorraine re-designed Truman's training program and launched the Truman's Academy, the most intensive men's grooming training program in New York City. Lorraine believes that Truman’s team of stylists and staff stand out from the pack because of the technical and interpersonal skills the team received in training. In addition to styling and training, Lorraine has been a lead developer in creating Truman’s line of award-winning grooming products.
