GARY SPELLMAN- WHO YOU ARE- THE HEART OF PLH
Gary Spellman is the super charged, dynamic co-founder of Ultimate Face Cosmetics.
A strong work ethic emerged in Gary at a young age. However, a pivotal personal and professional moment occurred for Gary while working the door at one of the top night spots in Newport, RI ; he met and became friends with John Paul DeJoria. Thus his long- standing relationship with John Paul Mitchell Systems was born. During his 25 plus years in the professional beauty industry, Gary has performed many roles: field sales, sales management, sales trainer, distributor, manufacturer and salon coordinator, to name a few.
Gary’s commitment to excellence is not limited to the professional beauty industry... He is also serious about giving back. The annual Peace, Love, and Happiness Ride that he founded with his longtime friend, John Paul DeJoria has raised over a million dollars for the 100 Club of Central Texas (which benefits the orphans and widows of fallen peace officers). Among his many other charitable endeavors, Gary also finds time to protect the planet by serving on the board of several innovative companies such as Eco Out law, Tri Carbon Energy, and The Back Yard.
If he isn’t busy saving the planet, or practicing philanthropy... you can most likely find this dynamo racing his mountain bike competitively or shredding a mountain on his snow board. All of these activities, however, come a distant second to his family – son Dakota and his wife and Ultimate Face co-founder, Laurie Spellman.
