Our humble beginnings... Kelly Rockquemore, a native of Tampa, is the founder of New Identities Hair Studios, and resides in Tampa, Florida with husband Marc and son Dax. Kelly, who has been a salon owner & hair designer for more than 20 years, is widely recognized as one of the industry’s top authorities on advanced hair color and hi-lighting techniques. Marc Rockquemore is a native of Jackson, Michigan and relocated to Tampa, Florida in 1989. Marc is a graduate of the University of South Florida (B.S. in Business Administration), an avid musician, and formerly a Financial Consultant with Merrill Lynch of Tampa. New Identities Hair Studios originally opened in 1994 on Fowler Avenue in Tampa, in a quaint 600 square foot location with only 4 employees, and maintained an active client base of about 500 clients. Upon retirement of Kelly’s former business partner, the Rockquemore's planned a strategic move, and re-located the salon to the up-scale, trendier, & rapidly growing New Tampa area.
