    COO

    Hello my name is Jieomar (Jieo)

    I’ve been cutting hair professionally for 18 years and the journey has been overall amazing.

    For the past 8-10 years I’ve put my heart into Barber competitions, helping our future Barbering generations, giving back to our Vets, less fortunate and my community.

    The pandemic took a lot away and now that things are settled I’m super happy to be able to push forward along side my brother Greg Jones and TCBU Inc.

    “The hard times is what builds us, so let’s never give up and have faith that our purpose will unfold on its due time”.
