Topher started his career in the hair industry and gained most of his knowledge behind the chair at JoJo Hair Studio in Downtown San Jose. From then he moved to Antoni Paez in The Rose Garden of Park Avenue and opened his own makeup studio in Downtown Campbell where he remained for two years until Steampunk Beauty Bar opened in 2015. Due to recent events (COVID-19 and Shelter-in-place), Steampunk Beauty Bar had to shut its doors on March 16th, 2020.

We have since moved to Sunnyvale and Steampunk Beauty Bar became, Cut & Color Collective. Christopher has been involved in events such as the Santana Row and local fashion shows, corporate events, beauty and image services for executives of Facebook, Instagram and other major companies, international makeup for ballroom competitions; and last but not least, the brides near and far that he styles, so that they can walk down the aisle with confidence.

He continues to offer hair and makeup services in studio and on-location.
