PRODUCT developer Chris Hayes claims he’s being “shut out” and “bullied” by hairstylist John Barrett. Hayes says in a letter to friends that he spent two years developing the Elementage hair-care line with Barrett: “John agreed that I was a partner in the business and that I would receive my equity once the product hit stores.” Hayes says that although he “successfully launched the line and secured distributions,” he’s been told he’s out of the partnership. A source told us, “John is trying to disparage Chris.” Hayes confirmed he sent the letter, and Barrett had no comment.
