James Pecis, one of the most innovative hairstylists in the fashion industry, had a passion for the arts from the very beginning. Drawing most of his inspiration from nature and the outdoors, he still retains a rather organic and earthy touch to his work. Born in Northern California, Pecis chose to move to San Francisco in order to pursue music. This is when his journey as a hairdresser began. He improved his skills as a coiffeur in the fashion capitals, New York and London. It was by assisting the legends of Laurent Philippon and Jimmy Paul that he gained mastery of the craft and moved on to become a freelancer.

James is known for his incredible braiding skills. Besides that, he can pull off anything from long, naturally flowing locks to fancy mohawks. This versatility has made him popular among coveted brands like YSL, Vogue, V Magazine, Michael Kors, and Alexander McQueen. His clientele includes the who’s who of the fashion industry such as Kate Moss, Kendall Jenner, Naomi Campbell, the Beckham family (Victoria & David), and Gigi Hadid. The essence of Pecis’ work lies in his efforts to endorse sustainability in fashion and a very unique creative process.
