Larry Peneschi is none other than Gina Rivera’s dad, making him a pretty special guy. He is emblematic of the family’s legacy in the salon industry that started in 1929. He is now among dozens in the lineage who have styled hair, owned salons and run beauty schools. Gina recalls sweeping hair from her parents salon floors, arguably marking the moments when her career began. After a long and successful career, Peneschi still chooses to style hair, in a Phenix Salon Suite alongside his daughter’s studio. See MORE Internat’l Team Members, Page 6 Page 3

John Aultman “I love styles that can be punked out for a night on the town or dressed down for a day at work,” said John Aultman, whose life took a circuitous path from a very small town in Georgia to a position on the Phenix International Artistic Team.

Halle Berry’s pixie with long bangs as Catwoman in the 2004 release. “It was the first time I remembered seeing such strength and beauty coming from a haircut for a character … It really showed the transformation of the character from weak to strong.” Kim Berry Becoming a hairstylist for the mega-artist Prince wasn’t what Kim Berry had in mind when she signed on the dotted line to join an L.A. beauty school. She was just trying to make her mom happy. Fate had a greater path in mind. Berry went on to cut and color for some of the most recognizable names in entertainment. With that she brings a wealth of knowledge and great stories to the Phenix Family Reunion. Jurgen Paul “JP” Hainsfurth Jurgen Paul “JP” Hainsfurth is on a mission.
