Anh Co Tran was born in Vietnam and immigrated to the United States at the age of four, living initially in refugee camps before settling in Southern California. His career path initially led him to fashion school at FIDM in Los Angeles, where he specialized in pattern making. This early experience fostered his passion for sculpting and creating with his hands. Recognizing hair as a three-dimensional art form, he transitioned into hairstyling. His foundational training began at Toni & Guy, where he started as an assistant to a colorist, gaining insights into hair color before focusing on styling. His aptitude for hairstyling quickly became evident, leading him to become a senior creative director at the salon and participate in hair shows, sometimes even designing clothes for them.
Tran’s professional trajectory gained significant momentum with a pivotal haircut for supermodel Coco Rocha, which substantially boosted his public profile and Instagram following. This event highlighted the impact of social media on his career. Around seven years ago, he met Johnny Ramirez in a Beverly Hills salon. Their shared work ethic and philosophical alignment on hair styling, particularly the “Lived In Hair” concept, led to a professional partnership. This philosophy centers on creating hairstyles that appear naturally effortless, akin to a well-worn pair of jeans, right from the first cut.
In 2013, Tran and Ramirez co-founded the Ramirez-Tran salon, a venture that expanded their influence and provided a platform for further industry engagement. This salon, designed with a blend of Parisian and New York aesthetics, became a hub for their creative vision. The salon’s success opened doors to numerous collaborations and partnerships within the beauty industry, including significant associations with major product lines like L’Oréal Professionnel. Tran has also taken on the role of Global Creative Director for Milbon, a Japanese professional hair-care brand, leading research and development for collections such as the Monochromatic Collection. He conducts master classes through the Academy Ramirez Tran, sharing his techniques and business insights on branding and social media.
