MY UNIQUE APPROACH
My goal with every client is to make them feel as comfortable as possible with me. I begin each appointment with a consultation and do a deep dive into their hair history. I want them to be able to tell me what they love or dislike about their hair. Also, to find out what hair goals they have and go over how to achieve them. I also love to help them find solutions to their hair problems. I hope to build a rapport and really get to know my clients. This aids me in creating a customized experience and service.
My story and why I became a hair stylist
I’ve always been interested in the beauty industry. Growing up, I remember begging to go with my mom to her hair appointments, so I could sit there and watch. I loved seeing the color being applied, the precision haircuts and the glam styling. That’s where my love for the craft began. After receiving my cosmetology license at age 19, I was offered an apprenticeship at a prestigious Aveda salon in Carmel, California. This was a wonderful opportunity to refine my skills and grow into a lead stylist. The strong foundation built here shaped me into the skilled stylist I am today. After a few years of commuting, I decided to move to a salon closer to home and was offered the opportunity to start my own business. Over the next 12 years, I managed my business and continued my education by working alongside many other talented hairstylists. Many of whom are still my friends today.
At the end of 2019, my husband and I decided to be closer to family and moved to Texas. I was able to build up my clientele and in 2022 I opened my own suite. Moving and starting over was hard but completely worth it. I feel that moving propelled me into becoming a stronger stylist behind the chair and offering my guests a better version of myself. I hope one day to expand my business and share my knowledge. I want to help other stylists grow and offer my clients the best possible experience.
