About This Pilot
Julio, a young and sexy Puerto Rican tattoo artist, works out of the basement of his cousin Jose's barbershop. Julio has a "condition" which gets him into trouble on an all too-frequent basis, and his cousin, Jose, is barely keeping things under control around the shop. Between Tony, the mafioso wannabe barber who would like to take over the shop, and Gustav, the gossip-obsessed, gay barber in a desperate search for a mate, it's a wonder any hair actually gets cut. Julio is in production with a premiere set for Fall 2009.

Again, thank you so much for everyone who has expressed an interest and support for our production.

Hot Lather Productions LLC is based in Cleveland, Ohio and is producing "Julio" entirely with local talent and crew.
