In today's fast-moving digital world, influencers seem to appear overnight-effortless, polished, flawless. But behind the screen lies a truth few ever see. This is the real story of Emre Bardan, reborn as Atakan Romano, the viral sensation known as Glamhairartist.
Not a fairy tale. Not an accident. But a journey carved through fire.
From a working-class childhood in Australia to cutting hair at five years old, Emre discovered early that beauty was more than a talent-it was destiny. But destiny didn't come easy. With no money, no connections, and an accent that marked him as an outsider, he was underestimated, rejected, and dismissed. Still, he hustled. He saved. He survived.
When he couldn't afford a salon, he made one from a rusted car. When doors refused to open, he climbed through windows-onto music video sets, into creative circles, and toward opportunities that others took for granted. And then, in 2017, one video changed everything. Overnight, millions witnessed his gift, and the world finally said the word he had been fighting to hear his whole life: yes.
But viral fame came with shadows-addiction, betrayal, pressure, and pain. What the world celebrated on the outside nearly destroyed him on the inside. Yet from the ashes, a new identity emerged: Atakan Romano, a man forged by adversity, purpose, and unbreakable will.
This memoir is raw, unapologetic, and deeply human. It is a story of survival, reinvention, and the courage it takes not only to rise-but to stay standing when the world tries to knock you back down.
If you've ever dreamed beyond your circumstances...
If you've ever fought battles no one else saw...
If you've ever believed that your pain could become your power...
Then this book is for you.
Not just a child with scissors.
Not just a viral stylist.
A man reborn in the spotlight.
