Hey! Glad you stopped by! Here’s a little about myself…

I specialize in cutting, lived-in color, and low maintenance hair. My desire is to create haircuts and color that require minimal maintenance at home AND in the salon. My time behind the chair has helped me realize there are SO many people that have zero desire to spend more than 5-15 minutes on their hair or hours at the salon every 6-8 weeks. And that’s OKAY!!! You are my people, and you have found your hair home. I also acknowledge that there are very few hair stylists out there that really want to hone the skills required to create a haircut that will look amazing air dried and color that will look great for months!

I am an artist inside and out! I earned a BFA in Photography from Georgia State University and worked in film/music videos for 5 years. After receiving my BFA, I decided to pursue my other passion and graduated from the Master Cosmetology program at Keune Academy by 124 in 2018. Both degrees have helped build a strong foundation of color theory and develop my eye for detail!

I strongly believe in continuing education, which enables me to provide the most current styles, trends and techniques. It also gives me information needed to educate you on how to best care for your hair. I have done and continue to do extensive research about hair care products and how they affect our hair on a daily basis. Just like the products and foods we put in our bodies, what we put on our hair matters. It affects so many things, but it can be a lot to keep up with. That’s why you have me!

My private salon suite is a reflection of who I am. I call it my mini plant nursery/art gallery salon. I’ve worked hard to create a space that everyone will feel welcome and relaxed in. We can put on your fav band or turn the music off completely. This is your time, and I want you to enjoy it as much as possible, and leave feeling refreshed and revitalized!

When I’m not in the salon working with clients or researching haircare products, you’ll find me starting a new art project or learning a new craft, out eating yummy food with friends or relaxing at home with my cat, Gunter.
