Topher Tolentino

Topher Tolentino brings a refined, luxury-edgy approach to hair and color transformation. With a background rooted in bridal, high fashion, and international work, he now creates at Above First in Downtown San Jose. His philosophy is simple: put yourself first so you can fully show up for others.

We are a welcoming LGBTQ+ safe space dedicated to your reinvention. Your identity is our priority, and we provide a private-client, green-room atmosphere where you can step into your next chapter with absolute confidence.
