If Laura hadn’t started cutting hair for friends in her parent’s kitchen during college, she would have missed her calling. After beauty school, Laura apprenticed learning Vidal Sassoon techniques, and with over 15 years in the industry, she has received advanced training from Aveda, Bumble and Bumble, Kevin Murphy, and Nick Arrojo. Laura loves precision haircuts just as much as she loves tearing into those haircuts to bring out the hair’s natural texture & helping the hair to move. She also loves special occasion hair and men’s cuts. When she’s not working, she loves spending time with her family, going to the gym, or spending countless minutes reading or watching videos on hair, health, fitness, food, and raising children.
As a third generation hairstylist, CJ grew up in and around hair salons. With over 14 years experience, CJ has extensive training in Vidal Sassoon haircutting techniques. In addition to precision haircutting, he specializes in natural looking hair color with a strong focus on dimensional color and blonding. CJ is known for his incredible blowouts and gorgeous event hairstyles. When he’s not at the salon, CJ loves spending time with his two little dogs, baking and cooking. You’ll want to ask him about his lasagna recipe… it’s delicious!
