In 1958, Lazarou's parents and three of his siblings migrated from Greece to Australia. Lazarou and two more siblings were born in Australia. Lazarou left school to start an apprenticeship at the age of 15. Lazarou opened his own hair salon at the age of 17, while still an apprentice. He found himself the boss of a senior hairdresser to whom he was apprenticed. In his teenage years he also worked in the Brisbane business Gambaros.
In 1989, Lazarou came on board as duty manager of The Coffee Club, then a brand new business. Lazarou bought into The Coffee Club two years later and over time helped build one of Australia's largest franchise operations—at 2015, The Coffee Club operates over 300 stores worldwide.
