Carl A. Howell, founder and chairman of Advanced Hair Studio

Carl Howell established Advanced Hair in Florida in the United States in 1973. Within three years the company grew beyond recognition, with approximately 35 studios on the east coast and as far west as Texas. It was the first permanent hair replacement ‘chain store operation’ in the world.

It was at this time that Carl also developed the original hair fusion process which would later form the basis of the highly successful ‘strand by strand’ procedures.

In the late 1970s, Carl returned to Australia where AHS continued to flourish. Whilst using celebrity endorsement for the hair procedures, AHS soon dominated the Australian hair restoration market and expanded to New Zealand.

Advanced Hair Studio now has 80 studios world-wide, covering Western Europe, Middle East, Far East, South Africa and Australasia. AHS prides itself as an innovator and market leader in hair replacement and restoration treatments.

Carl is actively involved in a number of charitable organisations. In Australia, the AHS Foundation has supported a wide variety of good causes, including child cancer charities, the Variety Club and the Shane Warne Foundation.

In the future, Carl hopes to expand the business into new areas including throughout Europe, China and India.
