Jose has marketed shampoo, irons and such for years. He has had his his own line of shampoo and such for 10 years I know of. What does HSN mean, never marketed...hmmm? We worked some shows in the early 70's, and he was my age or a couple years older. I am going to be 66. He ALWAYS wore a hat. He has them specially made, lol!He does have a fedora he wears sometimes, but never in appearances. I could be wrong, but just what I have noticed over the years. He is one of the nicest men in the business if you ever get a chance to meet him. He is in his salon all the time. He only does special clients now as "his dogs are probably barkin" by now, all those years on the feet. He has a way with hair, like no other. Farrah, Liz Taylor, cher, Barbra S and I have forgot her name...she was a charlie's angel, but now markets clothes for Kmart? I like her hair best of all.
All I can think of is, the mass marketing of his products keeps the income coming in, as he slowly passes the torch at the salon. I don't blame him.
I really admire him for his community work, he does free. He loves it! He helps women who are down and out get make overs and clothes to go back to work. Or go to work for the first time. He always treats them with kindness, and never looks down
If you see him in person he his a very diminutive man. Maybe 5'4", and small frame. He probably wears the hat for hairline issues, and he is so used to it, LOL! I have seen him without it, and he does appear taller with it!
