I have worked in this industry since 2015, and I am passionate about helping my guests achieve their beauty goals with personalized treatment. I graduated from Paul Mitchell and am a certified makeup artist through Southeastern Esthetics Institute, and I have been published in Columbia Metropolitan magazine.

I offer the unique ability to truly listen to my clients so that we can formulate the best plan to get their desired result. I meet so many people in this industry every day, and the impact we can make on someone's life just by listening to them and providing a hair service is amazing. It brings me so much joy to be able to make people feel good about themselves. When I'm not at work, I love hanging out with my family. I'm a proud Aunt with two nephews and three nieces.

SIDNEY

Sidney is from Chapin and graduated from Paul Mitchell Columbia. She specializes in all things blonding; whether you want the brightest, most bold blonde or something a little more subtle. She also specializes in hand-tied extensions. Her passion and what makes her get up and show out is seeing her client's smile when they have their dream chair after a visit in her chair.
When she's not behind the chair, you can catch her walking her mini dachshund Miller, working on her small business, Sidney Jane Art, or hanging out with her fiance Lawson.

MADELINE

Madeline specializes in blonding and custom dimensional color, creating gorgeous, confidence-boosting transformations. When she's not in the salon, you can find her singing at church, shopping, or spending time with her husband and two fur babies! 

SARAH

Sarah thrives on relaxation and enjoying life's simple pleasures. When she's not at work, she enjoys giving herself a mini shopping spree online shopping, only to abandon her cart at the checkout because she can't justify spending the $7 shipping fee. You can find her binge-watching her favorite Hulu or Netflix obsessions from the comfort of her bed with all of her pets! One of her favorite services to offer is lash extensions. Not only does she love the artistry behind it, but it's also the perfect opportunity to sing along to the latest playlist on Apple Music (yes, she'll probably belt out the lyrics while she works).

EMMA

Emma specializes in blonding and dimensional color. When she's not behind the chair, you can find her at a concert, Carolina game or at the local Mexican restaurant enjoying queso, guac, and margs (because she believes the best things in life are EXTRA!) She loves to travel and hopes that one day she can find herself in Europe.
