With nearly two decades of dedication to the hair industry, hair artist Trung Tran has established himself as a storyteller through his scissors. Known for his precise techniques, creative spirit, and artistic sensibility, he doesn’t just create beautiful hairstyles—he spreads passion and inspires the next generation. Greenlife, the brand he has been committed to since 2014, has become his partner, home, and trusted companion on the journey to elevate the identity of Vietnamese hair artistry.
Journey of a stylist who lives to his passion
Trung Tran entered the hair industry with seriousness and a belief in beauty marked by individuality. To him, hair is a part of the body that speaks silently—expressing emotions, personality, and even one’s unspoken desires. When he places his hands on someone’s hair, he’s not merely styling it—he’s connecting, listening, and understanding. After more than 15 years in the profession, Trung Tran still maintains a wholehearted spirit in his craft. He believes that a great hairstylist is someone who uses technique to honor individuality and uses emotion to nurture confidence in every client. Amid countless shifting trends, he chooses to create beauty that feels right—beauty that helps people feel like their true selves.
The style Trung Tran pursues is a harmonious blend of precise technique, aesthetic thinking, and artistic emotion. He doesn’t just style hair—he aims to uncover each person’s unique beauty and transform it into a personal signature. That’s why the hairstyles crafted by his hands are always highly wearable yet imbued with refined artistic flair.
On that journey, Greenlife has become a significant milestone. He recalls his first meeting with Ms. Bich Tam (the company’s director) as a fated encounter. Her kindness, professionalism, and the genuine spirit she radiated made him believe that a brand always reflects the vision of its leader. From that moment, he knew Greenlife wasn’t just a partner—it was a place where he could belong, learn, and share the values he truly believes in.
Greenlife: Companion of a soul dedicated to its career
Over more than a decade with Greenlife, Trung Tran has not only refined his craft but also experienced significant transformations in his career. In the past, he focused on creating beautiful haircuts, precise coloring, and polished styling. But when he began teaching, performing, and passing on his experience to the next generation, he discovered a new responsibility—the responsibility to inspire.
Trung Tran became a technical ambassador for the C:EHKO brand, one of the few Vietnamese faces representing international hairdressing standards. But above all, what he takes the most pride in is his journey with Greenlife in community training initiatives—from his first stage performance in 2015 alongside German experts to training sessions held in Saigon, Da Nang, and beyond. The applause, the eager eyes of students after every lesson—those moments remain etched in his memory like vivid, unfading scenes from a film.
He says the journey with Greenlife is more than a career—it is a mission. A quiet yet profound mission: to pass on the values of the profession to the next generation, to nurture a spirit of learning, and to keep the passion for hair alive.
Global aspiration and the journey of nurturing the Vietnamese identity
For Trung Tran, each international study trip marks a milestone—an opportunity to refresh his mindset and push his personal limits. The Sassoon Academy in London instilled in him a disciplined, methodical approach to every cut, while Two町Kaboo in Shanghai inspired a sense of creative freedom, where technique and artistry merge into a seamless whole. His journeys to Korea and Europe deepened his conviction that Vietnamese hairstylists possess all the capabilities to shine on the global stage.
The most unforgettable trip for him was his study at Sassoon in 2018. Meeting Mark Hayes—his idol whom he had watched in countless videos during his early days in the profession—was a dream come true. For Trung Tran, that journey didn’t just shift his professional mindset; it also ignited a bigger aspiration: to become a global hairstylist and carry Vietnamese identity to the world.
What he cherishes most isn’t the dazzling stages, but the fact that he persevered in pursuing his passion—long enough to finally touch what once felt out of reach. And throughout that journey, Greenlife has been a steadfast companion, quietly fueling his fire and supporting every step he’s taken.
Messages from a heart of he who lived with his profession
To young people pursuing a career in hairdressing, Trung Tran doesn’t offer flowery advice. He simply shares this honest message: “Take hairdressing seriously from the very beginning—start with the basics. Master the fundamentals and refine your techniques, because that’s the root for a long-lasting journey.” He believes hairdressing is a craft infused with artistry, and only through diligent practice can one move closer to excellence.
Trung Tran also deeply values Greenlife’s commitment to building a professional hairdressing community—one grounded in clear thinking, integrity, and a vision for sustainable development. Their focus on hands-on training and investment in the next generation not only enhances skills but also enriches the entire community’s professional ideals.On the occasion of Greenlife’s 15th anniversary, Trung Tran shares his heartfelt congratulations: “Wishing Greenlife continued strength, success, and the energy to keep spreading lasting values. Thank you, Greenlife, for inspiring and fueling the passion of thousands of professionals like me.”
