Hi, Hello, Jonathan Van Ness Doesn't Care About Your Gender Rules For Beauty

Get the Full StoryMaybe you've noticed one particular thing about Jonathan Van Ness: sister is fierce - a happy consequence of lush, butt-grazing hair and I'll-cut-a-b tch platforms, we suppose - and does not give two f cks what you think about it.

It's that sense of confidence and self-expression, after all, that have earned his keep as reigning star and hairdresser of Netflix's Queer Eye. But JVN has been doing JVN his whole life, thankyouverymuch. "For as long as I can remember, I've been into gender-queer experimentation - I just didn't know that that's what it was called," he told POPSUGAR. "It's just on a larger scale now. There have been certain scenarios in my life where I've been more or less forced to conform into the gender roles of a man because there wasn't another option. Like in cheer, it was like if you were a boy, you do this. There really wasn't room for you to express your individuality."

Now, honey, the world and TV screens, red carpets, social media feeds . . . is his oyster - and he's sharing the shamazing lessons he's learned along the way, ahead.
