So who is this striking young lad on the cover of Engagement 101‘s male cover issue?

Celebrity hair stylist Francky L’Official is best known for his popular salon in Manhattan and his regular appearances on The Real Housewives of New York.

During a photo shoot for our 2009 celebrity cover, we snapped a few photos of Francky while he was on set. We loved how the photos turned out and decided he would make an excellent model for our first ever male cover. But Francky’s transformation from stylist to model doesn’t stop there.

The handsome stylist has several projects lined up, including opening a new upscale salon. The new salon will have a spa, botox service, and will include special packages just for brides.

And recently he was featured on Inside Edition where he gave Jersey Shore‘s Snooki a much needed makeover. He have her three looks: a sophisticated ponytail look, a straight, sleek look and a Kim Kardashian-inspired look with retro waves and extensions.

He also has a new reality show in the works. It looks like our cover boy is busy! Pick up or order a copy of Engagement 101 today
