In addition to being proud of her new chapter, Tokyo previouslyopened up to PEOPLEabout being one of Hollywood’s most sought-after hair stylists.
“I am responsible for all her hair moments!” Tokyo told PEOPLE in 2018.
For over three years, Tokyo has given Jenner every bold cut and color change under the sun all without lifting a pair of scissors or mixing a bowl of hair dye. The secret: his masterfully made wigs.

“I started making wigs for cancer patients originally. Just being able to help people and make people feel good about themselves and give them that confidence was a dream come true for me,” Tokyo said.
“My very first celebrity client was Tamar Braxton. But it wasn’t until I started withKylie Jennerthat my career [as a wig maker] really started to blossom. Kylie is a trendy, cool girl. She likes to have fun with her hair, so it was just me having fun with her. That is when everything took off into something really different.”
