Allison -

Owner

From fades to color or your Best Day Ever hair - every client leaves my salon feeling and looking their absolute, head-turning best. I launched my talents in the cosmetology industry as an apprentice to California native, Brittin Tate,who taught her statement Art of Balayage Highlighting technique. Mastering Balayage allowed me to truly focus on creating myself and my brand. Being a military wife, I have gotten the opportunity to master the original “Army Crew Cut” and perfect the “Fade” with men's cuts. Continuously striving for the next best trend, I added the art of bridal hair & special occasions to my resume. From a simple French Twist to a masterpiece that is bound to be framed, I began working on bridal hair, which is an art all on its own. Each individual bride has their own unique canvas.
