A chance meeting
Joe’s participation in the show was completely by chance, as neither he nor Angie were the impetus for his transformation. Rather, one of the style experts on the show, Kyan Douglas, encountered Joe while eating at the restaurant where he was a waiter! Upon seeing Joe’s hair, Kyan was determined to have him come on the show for a makeover, and asked Joe if he was interested. Luckily, Joe was eager to accept, having come to view his long hair as an increasing burden.
