Daehyuk Kwak · Art Director

“A hair academy where trend and tradition coexist —
focused on the essence.”

Statement
intro

An art director who has taught cut design through seminars and shows across 11 Asian countries. Built on a structure-driven cutting language refined through Yamano, Vidal Sassoon, and Pivot Point, he continues to translate the grammar of the floor into salon work and education.

DH LABEL Academy is the outcome of that work — a space built to pass on technique, aesthetic, and attitude to the next generation of designers.
