For nearly two decades, Chicago native Ibn Jasper has been behind the constant reinvention of Kanye West’s hair: Keith Haring-inspired motifs, ornate squiggles, as well as manicured mullets that can take between 45 minutes and two hours to execute. The two met when West was 18 and Jasper had just finished barber school. He drew inspiration for early hair designs from the skateboarding world after almost going pro. Jasper’s passion for the sport continues to inform his work. Since 2012 he has been a conceptual designer for skater brand Diamond Supply and plans to launch the label’s first luxury menswear collection, Cordova, in the spring.
