About this episode
Josh Lamonaca (MENSPIRE) shares his full journey from cutting hair at 15 to building one of the most influential men’s hair brands in the world.
In this episode, we dive into how he went from self-taught barbering in his grandmother’s garage to performing on global stages, creating a new standard for men’s hairdressing, and building a worldwide education platform.
Josh opens up about ego, burnout, rejection, discipline, and the mindset shift that changed everything — from “showing” to truly “sharing.” This is a must-watch for barbers, creatives, and anyone building something from the ground up.
