When Charlie McCoy first arrived in NYC over 15 years ago, he didn’t expect to embark on a journey that would lead him to where he is today. With the number of accomplishments that Charlie McCoy has had racked up over the years, it could be easy to assume that he joined the game with a head start, which couldn’t be any further from the truth.

Charlie would spends years traveling the world, visiting 30 countries in 15 years to discover himself and what he could accomplish by learning the market and honing his craft.

As a Master Barber who has spent over 20 years working in the industry including 5 years with L’Oreal’s Kiehl’s Since 1851 before venturing out on his own, he was able to hit the ground running a few years ago in 2017 by taking his most loyal clients with him as stakeholders in his business ventures. Over the past four years, Charlie has opened up two brick-and-mortar businesses in Manhattan and begun a venture into e-commerce with his latest brand, Duke & Hyde, which he acquired from Europe. Besides running a barbershop called Artisan Barber and a salon named Orchard & Ludlow, Charlie has been hard at work on his new business venture, Artisan Luxury Brands, which is a consumer goods company functioning as the parent company to Artisan Barber, Orchard & Ludlow, and his two other new brands called Blu Amber Cosmetics and the recently acquired Duke&Hyde Grooming.
