Introducing, Christopher Hopkins
The Makeover Guy (Christopher Jon Hopkins)
Christopher Jon Hopkins, also known as "The Makeover Guy," is an entrepreneur, author, singer, and image consultant from Minneapolis.
Career:
He founded Christopher Hopkins Salon in 1990 and gained national recognition on The Oprah Winfrey Show. In 2017, he and his husband, Robert Lindquist, opened MAKEOVERGUY Appearance Studios, focusing on online content and makeover services.
He wrote the 2008 bestseller Staging Your Comeback: A Complete Beauty Revival for Women Over 45.
Performer: As a baritone soloist, he has performed with the Minnesota Orchestra, the Erie Philharmonic, and the Hannover Radio Philharmonic in Germany.
His 1999 debut vocal album I'll Be Seeing You was nominated for the 1999 Gay Lesbian American Music Awards for the song "A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square".[12]
In March 2008, Hopkins authored his first book, Staging Your Comeback: A Complete Beauty Revival for Women Over 45.[13] He is the founder and former co-owner of reVamp! salon and spa in Minneapolis.[14]
Frustrated by the laborious process of negotiating a television series, Hopkins created his own internet series entitled Whadja Do Today? in September 2009. What began as an attempt to speed the process and showcase a more authentic approach to his persona ended after 100 daily episodes on December 24 of that year.
Following the success of Whadja Do Today?, Hopkins began a new series of makeover videos in June 2010. This series showcases dramatic real makeovers of men and women from around the world. Originally entitled The Makeover Guy Reveals, the series name was changed to The Power of Pretty brand makeovers in 2013.[15]
Hopkins and Robert Lindquist left reVamp! salon and spa and opened "MAKEOVERGUY" in September 2017, located on the Mississippi Riverfront in Minneapolis.[16] reVamp! salon and spa closed its doors on November 30, 2019.[17]
Mr. Hopkins and Mr. LIndquist continue to own and operate MAKEOVERGUY® with a focus on online content and makeover services.
