[attr="class","rostercat2"] Clint is a pretty pushy kind of guy. He’s overbearing, loves the sound of his own voice, and doesn’t like awkward pauses or silence. Used to chatting people up endlessly while styling their hair, he’s a little bit nosy and is always looking for a new bit of gossip. He doesn’t intentionally create problems for people, but due to his curiosity and ‘you need some help don’t worry I’ll intervene’ attitude it winds up happening regardless. He likes to think of himself as very giving and generous, but his generosity is tends to be skin deep and his motivations for helping people are generally selfish ones (he generally helps people so that he can feel good about himself later). This isn’t to say he doesn’t try to be nice, he doesn’t really realize he likes to assist others in order to boost his own ego. Because of this ego though he is almost never willing to apologize, even if he knows he was the one in the wrong.


Clint is a HUGE stickler for proper spelling and pronunciation of words, stemming mostly from the fact that no one can seem to pronounce his last name properly. Most pronounce it simply car-mine, while it should be properly pronounced car-me-neigh. If you really want to get under his skin, you can also call him by his full name Clinton. He really doesn’t like the sound of it, and vastly prefers his nickname. He’ll never introduce himself with his full name. He is easily excitable, and it’s easy to make him mad at you over the most trivial of things. However, he usually gets over it pretty quick and is known to get over his “grudges” within a day. He’s a huge scaredy-cat, but he actually likes getting spooked (he likes the adrenaline spike that comes with it, and considers himself pretty brave for dealing with scary things). He’s a bit of a drama queen, and can be tough to deal with but he’s a bit more tolerable if you’re actually close to him.


Of course, Clint loves styling hair. It would be all he would ever do, if given the chance. He has a plethora of wigs he wears (though he has one that is his most favorite, a shade of platinum blonde with a light blue streak and hair clips), and no one has seen what his actual hair looks like. Or have they? Who knows which of his wigs are actually a wig, or his real hair? He is a perfectionist and will not accept a single hair out of place (pun intended) on anything he does. He is all about personal hygiene, but he hates the smell of most men soaps and colognes so he will use more feminine body sprays and shampoos with absolutely no shame.
He is also so extra that he likes to wear a stylist's frock as a sort of cape half the time, again with no shame.

[attr="class","rostercatsub2"]PERSONALITY

[attr="class","rostercat2"]Clint's family is small, consisting of only his mother, his older sister and his younger brother. His mother has always had troubles staying tied down to one man, and all were born from different fathers. Though she's never been married, she frequents the speed dating scene which is probably why most of her relationships never lasted. She worked two, sometimes three jobs in order to provider for herself and her children, so they never really saw much of her growing up. 

Clint's passion for styling came at an early age; he was tired of the matching style he always shared with his siblings (his mom liked to conserve money by simply giving them all home-done bowlcuts the old fashioned way), and began to practice on himself. Though he made plenty of mistakes (he still has a few scars on the tips of his ears from young mishaps) his skills began to gradually grow and by the time he was about twelve he was doing haircuts for everyone in his family. Around that time his mother started offering his services to the neighborhood to try and help provide for the family (his elder sister already had a part time jobl), and Clint was happy to help but even more excited to have more types of hair to practice on.

By the time he was about seventeen he'd managed to save up enough money to go to a proper beauty school. It was here that he began learning about how to groom Pokemon as well, how to massage them and the different types of scents he could use as well. Though he still greatly enjoyed cutting and styling for humans this had ignited a new passion in him that he was surprised he'd never considered in all of his years of practicing; his work could make Pokemon happy too. He and his family had never really had time for Pokemon because of their situation, but he was now more fascinated by them than ever.


He had always been a fan of Pokemon contests, and now that he was old enough and had a way to support himself, his desire to take part in them himself only grew. He studied each type and category furiously on the side of his stylist school training, trying to learn which moves and combinations could work well together and which Pokemon they might benefit most. By the time he had finished with beauty school around age twenty, he'd learned as much as he could in the time he had. Unfortunately, joining a contest circuit would mean leaving his home region of Kalos, as they didn't really have contests of their own. With the help of his family, he was able to book his passage to the Inset region where he planned on making his debut on their contest scene. If things went well and he managed to make a name for himself, he wanted to open up his own salon for both people and Pokemon where his hopefully pleasant notoriety would draw in enough customers to sustain himself. It was with high hopes that he set off on his new journey.
