THE FOUNDER'S MANUSCRIPT

The Journey, Chapter by Chapter

Seven chapters tracing the experiences, teachers, disciplines, and convictions that shaped The House of Shann Christen.

Hollywood

Long before I earned my cosmetology license, I worked in the entertainment industry under the name Shann Beeman. Hollywood was my first classroom—teaching me professionalism, discipline, preparation, and the understanding that excellence is never accidental.

Beverly Hills

At Gamine and later at Joseph Martin Beverly Hills, I was welcomed into a world of trust, discretion, and extraordinary people. From Nicole Kidman to Sean Young and Cloris Leachman, these experiences taught me that joy belongs alongside excellence.

Becoming a Professional

I attended Moro Beauty School in Glendale, California, earning my California Cosmetology License. For me, a license represented responsibility, professional accountability, and the privilege of earning another person's trust.

Italy

In Italy, I was welcomed by the Zunino family and immersed in generations of Trichology. They believed I could be part of the future of this profession. Their belief challenged me to study harder, observe more carefully, and become worthy of their confidence.

A Philosophy Takes Shape

My education in Italy changed the questions I asked and the way I practiced. It gave birth to BioMethod—biology before products, education before marketing, consultation before treatment. Years later, that philosophy inspired HairQuiz.

Those Who Built Me

The Kendel family, the Zunino family, my clients, and many mentors shaped this journey. Their belief, their lessons, and their trust live in every decision I make. This House stands because so many helped build its foundation.

The House

I wasn't building a product line, a salon, or even a website. I was building a House—a place where science, craftsmanship, education, and curiosity live together. Every consultation reflects this entire journey.

THE FOUNDATION

Turin, Italy · April 2010

Years of work behind the chair, on editorial sets, in film, and with clients from around the world eventually led to a deeper question: Why?

Those questions led me to Turin, where my work shifted from technique toward biology. The studies that followed became the scientific foundation upon which BioMethod would later be built.
