Pasquale Lia

My name is Pasquale Lia, and I’m a barber based out of New Jersey, U.S.A. I have been cutting hair for just over 4 years. I have a deep passion for Precision-Based cutting as well as Fading. My barbering apprenticeship started in late February of 2020. I worked for a few weeks and then everything went into lockdown. During that time, I had doubts about whether or not to continue my career. I didn’t have full experience in a shop setting, and I didn’t have a lot of knowledge on how to cut. On top of that, I had little to no clientele. I am telling you this because I realized that during these times of hardship, there was only 1 thing to do: put on the blinders and work hard. I understood that nothing is given in this industry and that if I want something, I have to go out and take it. By receiving education and having proper mentors, my ways shifted for the better. From traveling to Los Angeles, New York, and Toronto, I have learned so many great things from so many great
Since switching my mentality and understanding that things are not handed out in this industry, I try and inspire others to push themselves to limits that they didn’t think were possible. I work for City Image and have also educated for the company. In addition to educating for City Image, I am now an Ambassador for the Learn to Cut Program. Finally, I put what I have learned to the test by cutting at showcases and by teaching in private classes.
If I were to leave you with anything, it is this: Let the Unknown Be Known. Dream big because Anything is Possible.
