On Instagram, the 51-year-old hairdresser wants to be an LGBTQ ally …
He also claims to support racial justice and the BLM …
In addition to all this, he is an advisor to his company’s Equity and Opportunity Council, which is dedicated to “fostering a culture of diversity, inclusion and belonging,” and he calls himself “an advocate for human rights. man ”in his official biography.
So why is he supporting a political candidate who, in addition to being a staunch supporter of former chief white supremacist Donald Trump, even after admitting that he is “the worst president we have ever had” when it comes to LGBTQ rights, also hates the homeless, believes that “biological boys should not be allowed to participate in girls’ sports” and says it was easier to come out as trans than to call yourself a Republican?
That’s a very good question ! And a Mitchell has yet to respond. Queerty reached out to him for comment, but we never heard back.

SF Gate Reports:
In 2015, the Daily Mail described Angus Mitchell, born in 1970 and also a celebrity hairstylist, as a “multi-millionaire” and “heir to the Paul Mitchell hair care fortune”. The Daily Mail reported he was embroiled in a nasty divorce, in which he allegedly asked his personal boss to serve his wife’s divorce papers and engaged in a fierce custody battle.
In 2018, Mitchell faced a sex discrimination lawsuit alleging that he used his workplace “as a hunting ground to find women to hang out with and have sex with.”
In the trial, which is still pending, he was accused not only of pressuring an employee to have sex with him, but of paying her $ 50,000 afterwards and then having him said she either had the option to “quit immediately or at the end of the day.” “
Sounds like a nice guy!
