Chris Appleton knows luxury comes at a price.
The popular hairstylist, famous for his work with celebrities like Kim Kardashian, Jennifer Lopez, and Kris Jenner, recently shared how much his most luxurious service costs – and the price is surprisingly high.
He mentioned spending around $100,000, but clarified it was for travel and related expenses. He described it as a complicated matter during the January 23rd episode of the U Up? podcast.
Chris, 42, confessed he’s put everything on a credit card, starting with small purchases like $100 and now sometimes charging amounts in the six figures. However, he explained that these extremely large charges don’t happen often.
That situation is unique and won’t happen again often. However, remember that a large portion of any earnings will go towards taxes – about 50% – and your agent will also take a cut, leaving you with much less in the end.
Chris is known for more than just regular haircuts; he’s created some of the most memorable celebrity hairstyles. He’s been styling Kim Kardashian’s hair for years, helping her make a statement on the red carpet, and was responsible for her striking platinum blonde look in April 2024 before the Met Gala.
Chris and her mom, Kris, recently had some fun with their hair! Kris, 70, showed off a stylish new blunt bob in October and shared a photo with Chris on Instagram, captioning it, “We had a fun little blonde moment tonight!”
Okay, so Chris – seriously, Chris – just dropped his memoir, Your Roots Don’t Define You, and it’s amazing. You’d think someone working with all those famous people would instantly be recognized, right? But honestly, he’s told me it doesn’t always happen. It’s so weird! Like, he’s this incredible talent, but sometimes people just… don’t know. It blows my mind!
He recently shared with People magazine that everyone experiences self-doubt. He admitted to still feeling nervous and anxious with every project, even something as simple as posting a video on Instagram or TikTok.
He admitted he appreciated that approach, seeing it as a sign of humility. He emphasized he never wants to come across as arrogant or think he has all the answers, because no one truly does – he believes that idea is simply untrue.
