Who We Are - Todd and Cindy Leuck
As second generation hair designers, Todd and Cindy Leuck are both following in the footsteps of their mothers. With over 25 years in the hair industry, their efforts have culminated with the establishment of two extremely successful Aveda Salon and Day Spas—Samson & Delilah’s, located in Lafayette, Indiana, and Evan Todd, in West Lafayette, Indiana. It was after completing advanced training at Sassoon’s Academy in London, that Todd & Cindy began to see their careers take off!
From the beginning, Todd & Cindy Leuck’s careers have included the Aveda difference. Over 20 years ago Horst Rechelbacher, founder of Aveda Corporation, chose Todd as his assistant for on-stage presentations—this was only the beginning of Todd’s recognition for his professional talents. Since then, Todd has worked with people like Antoinette Beenders, British Hairdresser of the Year for five years running. As a ‘Global Master Purefessional’—a title held by the Aveda elite, recognizing top leaders in the industry that help create curriculum, develop new products, and pioneer Aveda’s education—Todd travels throughout the country inspiring stylists on what’s new in hair fashion and on the latest collections from London; and motivating them to become some of the best in the industry.

Both Todd & Cindy have experienced opportunities given only to a few hairdressers across the country. These experiences are essential for anyone desiring to have their work published within the industry; and this is part of what positions Todd & Cindy head and shoulders above their peers.

They also continue to make fashion statements in hair design, as they display their talents for such creators as Vera Wang, Betsey Johnson, Perry Ellis for Men, and Diesel.
