Great Reviews for the Documentary !!!!


Dear Joseph ...5-Stars to you!!!!"The Real Hair Truth" is just that, "The Real Hair Truth". There are so many important areas discussed in this film that its a "Must see" by artists on ALL levels." Janice Tunnell

Dear Joseph, I had a chance to see a preview of your video from (The real hair truth). I have to say that just that alone was very inspirational to me because of your passion and good heart, and the fact that you are of Hispanic origin makes me very proud.... I love this industry and I have a passion for it and want to have the opportunity to always meet people that are passionate about what they do. I live in Pa. and I'm considering moving to Florida and would like to connect with people in the Industry. I wish you a Merry Christmas and a great New Year, God Bless. Louis Crespo

Hi Joseph, Your documentary was a great watch. “The Real Hair Truth” is a must see by salon owners, hair professionals, students, and customers. This documentary was an eye opener to the practices in the hair industry. Hair conveys one’s self-image; it is vanity’s proving ground. Hair is extremely personel, an entan...glement of mysterious prejudices. Hair stylists have a responsibility to customers to improve their vanity. Hair professionals have the opportunity to learn the truth about their industry and customer needs by watching this documentary. This film would do very well in the theaters!!

Martin Rodriguez - I agree with what you are doing for the beauty professionals I am behind you a 100% great job Joseph keep up the great work .


Martin Rodriguez - If your in the BEAUTY BIZ. You must watch THE REAL HAIR TRUTH

thank you JOSEPH KELLNER I agree with your movie. I have being in the beauty biz for over 30 years. ITS TIME FOR CHANGE LET'S MAKE IT HAPPEN.

Dear Joseph

Well, I feel that there are alot of stylists that don't view what we do as a profession,rather they just perfect a few a cuts, learn one companies color line and thats it. These are the same stylists who get hung up on name brands.Its also the same stylists when working in a commision salon feel that the own...er pockets the other half of the income they bring into the salon.I've had experience with what I call prima dona stylists the ones that need everything,has to have everything, and can always do things better but never change themselves nor want to experience new things.These are the stylists manufacters bank on,they are the ones who help keep certain brands in the limelight.
I know we all at the end of the day want to make money, but I also want to know that I'm giving the best service I can. Exploring new less popular lines and trying out new techneques is what makes our profession so much fun. That also keeps our industry at a higher level. When clients can purchase the same products we use in the salon it makes our profession looked at as though it is easy and anyone can do it. I find that very embarassing. Its like doctors with all the ads for different meds. I guess the manufacters want us to right down all the meds that fit our ailments and give the doctor the list and tell him to write the scripts without any exam or diagnosis.
I couldn't agree more about not carrying any lines that can be purchased out side a salon. I also agree about having schools being held to higher standards.I know I'm been going on and on.  Laura

Subrina Farmer I agree, after 38 years doing hair I love to learn the healthiest way of doing hair, many fat cat manufactures want us to pay good money to use cheap and toxic products, and they will convince the beauty schools that its the only things that work, aveda is big on finding new words for chemicals so they we won't know right off what were useing. I have been lyre to by many manufactures forever, there is alot of the world that thinks hairdressers are less than, but we all can find out every ingreaent listed on the web!

Dear Joseph The Real Hair Truth was extremely informative , entertaining , and funny even for someone not in the hair industry . A definite must see for those in the professional hair business . This should definately be in a Movie Theatre or HBO! Great job ! ..."The Real Hair Truth", people are speaking out.  The title is not to be deceiving....it very much is "The Real Hair Truth", reveals so many unfortunate events that take place in this industry on a day to day basis, unfortunate yet informative. Joseph Kellner and Phil Stone reveal to us the many hypocrisies and treacheries that are taking over our creative industry, that is cosmetology. If anyone loves the industry as much as myself you will purchase and watch the DVD at http://www.therealhairtruth.com/, its a film you will never forget, groundbreaking and eye-opening every ground is covered from the continuing of education, to the malpractices of cosmetology business’s. A MUST SEE!!!

"The Real Truth About Hair"Excellent Vision!! This Film is a Must see for anyone in the industry ... As I said Yesterday on my page "I LOVE MY PROFESSION!! This dvd shows why ...the true Love for this business shows only in these films. see the TRUTH about the Special, Special people we are with so much Love ...


Joseph, Your Real Hair truth video was a prefect example of that the industries & All State Boards needs to do to get to a real professional level.
... Having a Apprenticeship for the State of California I see how valuable it is for ALL future Cosmetologist to experience how it is to work on the floor assisting others, this would weed out the ones that want it & the ones that cant handle it. That would be REAL consumer protection.
I have shown your video to all the students to see how fortunate they are to be in the Apprenticeship Program...

Joseph as the owner of simply organic beauty ,i couldn't agree with you more about the state of our industry..rather then me go own about the problem i have worked very hard on the solution...simply organic will never be found any place but... a salon..our brand is about the hairdresser...as in the movie patch adams ...how many fingers patch? is it really the products...i created blond for sam brocato when nobody even thought of blond being a business...in the first year we sold one million thru distribution...and john frieda copied the concept and sold 25 million at retail...how does one compete? well Ive passed that point..with simply organic its a whole new world of beauty...new education ..new information and best of all the truth...
in Feb of this year we are introducing simply organic in oil emulsion hair color ...but rather then focus on the problem i chose to focus on the solution...of course you must use the best ,ingreidents,the safest ,a new product concept ,but the real problem is we must bring hair color from the back room to the station...the service must be customized in front of the client and include the client.. our shade selector is the only usable shade selector in our industry ..with 27 shades and the ability to create 27,000 colors..the adding of organic fruit pectin in front of the client to protect the scalp and thicken the product..rather then fillers and waxes and crap that eventually will kill u! then more important the client picking the aroma in a special blend of essential oils no fake fragrance ,where you can hide even more crap under that label...there are more stories or fantasy about organic color..its impossible to make organic hair color ,forget the base its a bunch of b.s you must use pure dyes or pigments and the truth is its a chemical..its all chemicals...so can we make safer yes can we make it simple...yes can we put the power back in the hairdressers hands..yes how many fingers patch? make the service visible add the magic ,tell the truth and we win...but you can lead a horse to water ..but you cant make em drink!!
im so proud of the smart salons that have joined simply organic ..i believe we raised the bar siting dangerous chemicals and now everyone talks about parabens,and sulfates and glycol's,like they know...we told the story 11 years ago ...mark my words this time we are not ahead we are right on time...if you have the guts to research our company you will see i preach the same message ..its working ! stop supporting the giant companies that don't care ..im not going to mention but for one to change one must raise the standards change the belief,and change the strategy...we have we did and we always will..simply organic is the future for the independent salon ,and we welcome all companies who are independent and look to make a difference to join our cause for safe simple and smart products that help independent salons and stylists to become a bigger part of the communities in which they serve!! thanks joe:)
