tell us about your background as a stylist?
I started pursuing cosmetology shortly after I graduated high school in 2019. When I was in the process of finishing beauty school at Paul Mitchell covid pandemic hit making cosmetology go online. During that time I began doing a lot of family/friends hair & assisting in West Hollywood for a stylist that has traveled on tour with usher and has even cut our former presidents hair. Throughout her professional career I was the only assistant she ever had. I also began assisting for another stylist in West Hollywood who has a high in clientele as well. During my time assisting I styled cut and colored hair for weddings, their clientele and even the oscars. I find my strengths in lived in color, blonding and haircuts for women. My favorite service is definitely blonding wether it’s balayage or foliage and occasionally tape in extensions.

what brought you to the house salon?
What brought me to the house salon was the location. I’ve been commuting to LA from OC for almost two years now and growing up in Huntington Beach the house salon seemed like the perfect place for me to start building clientele outside of LA. The house salon stood out to me more than other salons because of the great reviews and the layout of the salon itself.
