Hunter G.
Everyone, meet Hunter — the newest addition to the Inizio family!
A dynamic hairstylist and musician from the vibrant state of Massachusetts, Hunter brings an inspiring blend of artistry, authenticity, and passion to the salon floor. Their journey bridges two creative worlds—music and hairstyling—each fueling the other and shaping a unique perspective on self-expression and beauty.
Hunter’s path began at the prestigious Berklee College of Music in Boston, where they immersed themselves in the study of sound, rhythm, and storytelling. That same creative energy later found a new outlet at the Aveda Arts Institute in Arlington, VA, where Hunter refined their technical skills and discovered how to translate artistry from music to hair design. The result? A stylist who approaches every head of hair as a living canvas—thoughtfully crafting styles that capture personality, movement, and individuality.
At InizioDC, Hunter’s passion is helping clients feel seen, confident, and authentically themselves. Their appointments are as much about connection as they are about transformation. Hunter takes the time to listen, creating a space where every client feels relaxed, supported, and genuinely cared for—because to them, beauty isn’t just about how you look, but how you feel.
Outside of the salon, Hunter’s creativity continues to flourish. They write and produce music, attend live concerts for inspiration, and spend time exploring stories through books, films, and shows that spark imagination and emotion. This love for creative exploration infuses every aspect of their work, making each appointment an experience that’s both artistic and uplifting.
Whether you’re looking for a bold color transformation, a new style that expresses your individuality, or simply a fresh dose of inspiration, Hunter brings heart, skill, and creativity to every moment in their chair.
