Masa Suzuki-Cruz

Masa is the newest member of the Studio Taka Team, but no stranger to styling. Born and raised in Japan, Masa spent ten years honing his craft in high-end Tokyo salons with a clientele that included several Japanese celebrities. Masa comes to Studio Taka with strong technical skills and an eagerness to help the team and serve clients. 

California was no random destination for Masa. Masa was drawn to the diversity, unique fashion, and culture in the U.S., and particularly southern California. Masa's experience as a stylist runs deep - clean cuts, technical cuts, perms, and up-do's are his specialties. Salon owner Taka says of Masa: "Studio Taka is fortunate to have Masa on the team. His depth of experience is terrific, and his happy, calming demeanor rubs off on clients and the rest of the team."

Masa loves working with the Studio Taka clientele, and his passion for beauty and hair is an invaluable asset for the team.
