Giacomo Forbes

Giacomo Forbes is a celebrity stylist and color specialist based in Austin, Texas. Over a multidecade career, he has worked across editorial sets and television and competed on Bravo’s “Shear Genius” Season 3, experiences that shaped his clean, camera-ready approach to hair. In New York, he advanced through high-end salon environments before launching his own private studio model; in Austin, he translated that expertise into GF Hair Lounge, a calm, service-driven space focused on highlights, balayage, corrective color, extensions, and hair-restoring treatments.

Today, Giacomo splits his time between his exclusive Austin salon, GF Hair Lounge—where he works discreetly with celebrities, socialites, and other high-profile clients—and his work in creative collaborations and product development. Outside the salon, he trains in martial arts, a discipline that informs his precision and focus behind the chair. He shares refined technique breakdowns and transformative before-and-afters across social channels, while welcoming select bookings through his website and text line.
