I'm Scott Tomlinson, and I opened HUM hair design to provide a space that is ideal for the creation of the highest level of technical work, and to promote a relaxing atmosphere for my clients. A well designed and executed haircut is absolutely essential to create the potential for an amazing hairstyle.
It is the cornerstone on which everything in hairdressing sits. Humming is one of the simplest sounds a human can make. It reduces stress, provides a sense of calm, and lowers ones heart rate and blood pressure. Hair is probably the most interesting, most versatile and deeply personal medium an artist can work with.

Hair is probably the most interesting, most versatile and deeply personal medium an artist can work with. I have reached a point in my career where I am comfortable with any hair type and can approach it with confidence. I particularly love doing short haircuts, as you can see if you visit my Instagram profile, which is devoted to the documentation of those I have done.

Scott is an amazing human with a gift for understanding hair on a very deep level. He clearly has expertise in the art of cutting, but also channels a particular warmth while working that made me and my hair feel very at ease. I’m so particular about my hair and also very low maintenance which is an awful combination. But Scott nailed exactly what I wanted on the first try. He really listened and is a joy to talk to and learn from. He taught me more about natural hair care in an hour and a half than I learned in a lifetime, AND gave me a incredible chin length cut that still looked great after

I have been going to Scott for 4 years to style my "wild" red hair with so many waves. I have been to so many expert stylists who have tried to accomplish taming my locks. It looks like that they have cut it properly but after my first shampoo, the hair reverts to its wild way.
But not Scott! He is able to make it behave and it so easy to control even when I do minimal drying and very limited styling ,with no product!!! I am basically a wash and wear girl!
I always look forward to my appointment knowing that I will always get an AMAZING CUT and receive so many compliments!! Scott is a kind person

Simply the best. I have the worst hair that every other stylist says is impossible. Scott makes it look beautiful, and gives me exactly what I want. On top of that, the cuts he gives me are unbelievably low maintenance...people actually say "I like the way you styled your hair" when I just roll out of bed. They also grow out beautifully. His cuts transformed my morning routine and, consequently, the way I feel throughout the day. This man is a genius. He gets hair. Go to him.

Scott is a hair artist. I have searched high and low and spent upwards of $250 for a good haircut in this city and finally was able to land with Scott. He pays attention to every little hair and how they it lays. I have thin fine hair so I am always in search of anything to make it look thicker, and Scott does is sorcery and I leave with two times as much hair every time! I have always cherished my hair as a few years ago I lost most of it... so I only let people I fully trust touch it! I wish that I could bring Scott home with me and have him do my hair every morning! Scott you can't ever

If you're in need of precision hair cuts, stop here. Scott is a master of doing fine, geometric cuts and crazy good at doing short hair cuts. Think Vidal Sassoon. He has amazing attention to detail -- which is important when Im a low maintenance client who comes in a few times in the year -- he can just look at my hair and KNOW where to pick up from. I love how chill he and his space is -- perfect for an introvert who doesn't a quick chat and time alone to read a good book while he snips away.

I've gone to Scott for 5 years now. He previously worked for VAIN. He has been my secret weapon for my hair. I have never written a review on him fearing to let out my secret. There is no substitution for an superb hair cut. It follows you where ever you go. If I could give him 10 stars I would. Scott is completely dedicated to the craft of hair design and is an artist and sculptor of hair. If you want the best hair cut of your life and serious about style you need to see Scott. Yes...the secret it out:)
