Dionte Grey, known professionally as Arrogant Tae, is famous for creating innovative wigs. Originally from Chicago, Tae relocated to Atlanta, where he quickly became a popular name among Hollywood celebrities.
He has styled rapper Nicki Minaj and multiple stars, including Kim Kardashian and Dream Doll. He is the founder of "The Flawless Experience," and offers premium hairstyling products.
In August 2024, Tae shared with Galore Magazine his passion for fashion and self-expression beyond hairstyling.
"Fashion has always been my passion. I’m an artist, so I love expressing myself in different ways, not solely through hair. But I’ve always loved playing dress up with girls and style myself in unique pieces that I love as self-expression since I can remember," he said.
Gray also talked about the first big opportunity in his career.
"My first celebrity client was Porsche Williams from Housewives of Atlanta! This was the time I was still living in Chicago, working in a salon downtown, and her manager made a post saying, 'Who is the best hair stylist in Chicago?'" Tae said.
It was an upward spiral for Gray, who went on to add more and more success to his name.
"My whole city was tagging me, and I was so shocked to see how many people really are fans of my work! ... But the experience I had when I did her hair was amazing and from that point, I knew I wanted to be a celebrity hair stylist!" Tae revealed.
Tae also participated in a fashion walk earlier this year to promote fashion designer PUL Sheen's Error NYC.
