Jackie Shaughnessay

Over 38 years of experience have shaped my passion for helping guests look and feel their best. I take pride in precision cutting, truly listening to each guest's unique needs and concerns, ensuring every style reflects their personality and lifestyle. My specialty lies in creating custom hair toppers designed for people with thinning hair and alopecia, a service I consider some of the most meaningful work I do.

Maureen Lamie

With over 35 years of experience behind the chair, Maureen is known for her commitment to her guests and her craft. Foiling and balayage placement are her focus, and she takes the time to map dimension across the whole head rather than working in isolated sections. Her goal is simple yet powerful: to ensure every guest leaves feeling confident, beautiful, and empowered.

Janet Layden

With 29 years of experience behind the chair, I do my very best to give every one of my guests an amazing, personalized experience. My passion is all things color and curly hair, and I'm the stylist clients see most often for color correction, when a color from elsewhere hasn't turned out the way it should have.

Not Sure Who to Book?

If you're not sure who fits best, start with what you're trying to solve. For precision cuts and custom toppers, Jackie is the specialist. For foiling and balayage, see Maureen. For color correction and curly hair, Janet is the go-to. For DevaCurl certified curl technique, Alicia is our specialist. And for anything else, Kim, our owner, can point you to the right person during your first call. Every new-stylist visit starts with a short consultation, so nobody is guessing on your first appointment.

Wondering Who To Book With?

We understand it can be nerve-wracking to see a new stylist. That's why we offer complimentary consultations, so you can talk through your hair goals and find the right match before committing to a full service.
