Michael Pollak is a New York based serial founder who keeps spotting personal-care rituals stuck in old-fashioned settings and rebuilding them as warm, branded experiences. He co-founded Heyday, the company that pulled the facial out of the spa and grew it into a national chain, then in 2024 launched Great Many, a hair growth studio and telehealth brand in NoHo that treats thinning hair with the comfort of a lounge and the rigor of a clinic. Trained at the Cornell Hotel School, he leads with hospitality instincts and gut-first decisions.
