When we see you walk out of the door exuding nothing but the utmost confidence, we know our job here at Modify is done.

Diane Precht

The business of hair began as a family affair for Modify co-owner of Diane Precht. Having spent her formative years at a relative’s salon in the South Street Headhouse District, the emerging hair apprentice paved her way to a dual profession in salon management and hair artistry. Diane then went on to study at the Fashion Institute of Design in Los Angeles, followed by the Wella Institute and the Paul Mitchell Academy to become a cosmetology instructor. A lifetime of opportunities soon unfolded, launching her career as a highly sought-after production stylist for the Academy of Music, Forrest and Merriam Theaters in Philadelphia. Her personal experiences from jet setting all over the globe and notorious love for eclectic fashion are translated into the hairstyles of her clients here at Modify. From kinky and curly styles to razor sharp precision, Diane’s diverse set of clientele speaks for her unparalleled expertise of almost thirty years. A firm believer of never staying comfortable, she upholds her jack of all trades reputation as a graduate of The Art of Business and as a mainstay in hair workshops, with the likes of Michael Jay, KEVIN.MURPHY, and Arrojo NYC.
