Famous Hairstylist Paul Mitchell's Son, Angus, Found Dead In Swimming Pool

Angus Mitchell, the son of famous hairstylist Paul Mitchell, has been found dead in a swimming pool.

According to reports, police officers got a call on Wednesday to the 53-year-old's home in Honolulu, where he was discovered dead in the water.

The day before he was found dead, Angus had shared a video of himself having the time of his life while listening to some Hawaiian music.

Angus Mitchell was reportedly found dead at his home after law enforcement officers got a phone call on Wednesday at around 6 AM about a man who had seemingly drowned in a pool.

A report claims that Angus was pronounced dead at the scene, and his official cause of death is presently unknown.

Angus, who was 53 at the time of his death, had shared a video on social media the day before the shocking incident, where he could be seen smiling and enjoying Hawaiian music with his loved ones.

Angus's father started John Paul Mitchell Systems in 1980, and he is a co-owner of the company. After his father passed away in 1989 from pancreatic cancer, he acquired his father's ownership interest in JPMS and its schools.

Despite attending hairstyling school, he reportedly claimed that his parents taught him the majority of what he knew. He spent several years working in Hawaii before launching the Angus Mitchell Salon in Beverly Hills in 2010.

The late hairstylist is survived by his wife, Mara, and his 8-year-old son, Dylan, whom he shares with his former wife, Sian. The late hairstylist was first married to a woman called Michelle Raab in 2010 on the island of Hawaii.

During an interview with Forbesmagazine, Angus opened up about how difficult it was for him to follow in his late father's footsteps.

He said, "It was probably one of the more difficult paths I could have chosen for myself. I always knew I wanted to honor my father and better understand the industry and family business. But having the last name Mitchell made things harder for me."

"In beauty school, my work was scrutinized and my confidence shaken. Respect and opportunity are earned; they are not an entitlement, regardless of birthright. I was always aware I was under a microscope and I wanted the approval of my peers. I just kept my head up and stayed committed to completing what I had started," the late Angus told the publication in January 2023.

Angus then talked about how he became content knowing he was following his "authentic path." He said that he felt "happy and present" and had found value in his "craft" and "ability" while sharing his "heart" with people."

"Through artistic inspiration and education, I help to inspire and motivate others to join and/or reignite the passion they have for our company and the professional beauty industry. This career path has shown me that I am without a doubt exactly where I am meant to be," Angus told Forbes.

Rest in peace, Angus Mitchell.
