O ver the past 18 years, I’ve come to specialize in both hair color and cutting, having graduated from Jean Madeline Aveda Institute in Philly. I adore formulating the perfect tones and painting lived-in balayages. And whether it’s razor cutting, sexy textured bobs, curly hair, or voluminous layers, I am obsessed with techniques that ensure these cuts are not only executed beautifully but also are done with a modern eye.

I love to talk thoroughly with you about your hair hopes and needs so that I can help you achieve the version of yourself that you want to see in the mirror… and that your friends can’t stop raving about.

I love being a hairstylist—I am truly obsessed with hair—but even more than that, I strive to be a day maker.

Hailing from Warren Tricomi at The Plaza Hotel as well as Cutler Salon, I have loved finding a hair home at The Bird House. I love getting to know my clients and helping them reach their hair goals. Behind the chair I take pride in my ability to listen to my clients and provide them with hair that fits them perfectly. My goal is to help you unleash your own inner Beyoncé! My favorite hair-things to do are creative color, shags, redheads (loooove a good redhead!). I love doing curly cuts, too, and teaching you how to enhance your curly texture. It’s not just about the cut but also your lifestyle.

In my personal life, I love making and discovering new music, meditating, and learning about new cultures. I can’t wait to meet you and join you on your hair journey! Pronouns: She/Her/They.

My love for hair began in early high school, where I styled hair for school plays and my did friends’ hair for prom. I enrolled in beauty school a month after graduation, and have been in love with coloring and styling hair ever since. I am obsessed with always taking my craft to the next level, which is why I have taken many high-end courses and worked directly under top educators.

Since moving to New York, my passion has evolved into lived-in and dimensional blondes. I also love big transformations. My attention to detail helps me shape modern haircuts that fit your personality. When you’re in my chair, it’s all about you, and creating a style that makes you feel confident.

In my free time, I love traveling and tasting new foods.

I ’ve always known I wanted to be in a creative field, but after a haircut I got when I was in high school, I realized exactly what I what I wanted to do. After that cut I felt so cool and knew I wanted to give that same feeling to other people. Soon, I was enrolled at Arrojo cosmetology school and then began my career at the Arrojo salon before joining the Bird House team.

I love creating textured lived-in shaped with flowing seamless layers, strong curly shapes, and edgy shorter styles. And I love doing bright color pops and rich natural reds! My favorite thing to do with clients is creating new looks they thought they could never pull off. Whether it be a small transformation like adding some layers, or a big one like a total color change, seeing my clients’ happiness and confidence after a service is why I’m here! Hope to see you in my chair soon, trying new fun things together!

M y hair philosophy is to thoughtfully help connect your inner and outer beauty as one. Being a Taurus, I truly enjoy being surrounded by art, love, beauty and self care. I knew I wanted to transform hair and inspire beauty inside and out ever since I was a young girl.

I began Cosmetology School when I was 16. I started my career in NYC assisting editorial stylists backstage at New York Fashion Week. After graduation, I received advanced color training in Los Angeles, soon returning to New York. I believe that consistent education is fundamental to success in an industry that’s always changing, and I love learning about the latest techniques and trends.

G rowing up with thick, curly hair, all I ever knew was how to tame it and wasn’t taught to embrace it. My mom would let me get it blown out and straightened professionally once a year and let me tell you it was truly the most incredible feeling! A feeling that eventually inspired me to learn how to style hair so I could help others feel as amazing as that little girl. After getting my BA in Theater, I furthered my education by attending Arrojo Cosmetology. Soon after, I was offered the opportunity to be Brooke’s apprentice for a year and am now behind the chair full time.

I love doing crisp bobs, bright blondes, and fiery red heads, among so much else. My ultimate goal as a hairdresser is to make my clients, regardless of hair textures or type, feel as radiant as that tiny kid who got to feel like a queen for a day.

F rom Long Island, I always knew I wanted to live in NYC and have a career where I could express my creativity. After graduating from Hunter College with a degree in anthropology, I didn’t experience the fulfillment I’d hoped for from my post-graduate jobs. As fascinating as anthropology is, my career path lacked creative expression so I decided to attend Arrojo Cosmetology School. After being in school for just a short time, I knew I’d made the right choice. Hair dressing is, it turns out, a perfect mixture of anthropology and art.

As a hairdresser, I get to play with color and shape, but I also get to be a student of humanity. I specialize in cuts and color that are easy to work with at home and that give my clients that effortless look. I have training in both scissor and razor techniques and enjoy combining the two for most cuts. When not in the salon you can find me cuddling in bed with my cat, Lucy, or wandering around Prospect Park on a nice day.

I have always been a passionate, detail oriented, and artistic individual with a love for beauty and expression. I grew up in theatre, and found a deep love for hair and makeup through my backstage experiences. After getting a BFA in Musical Theatre, I studied at the Aveda Institute NY, and my hair experience also includes film/tv, theatre, celebrities, and fashion.

My favorite services are transformational haircuts, natural blonding, and updo/event styling, but every client experience is a treat, and I love tackling your hair goals collaboratively. I carefully consider your face shape, lifestyle, and personal aesthetic when I work, and my goal is to help you express your most confident, truest self.

Growing up, I often experimented with my hair but it wasn’t until I went to a real salon that I was shown my hair’s full potential. My stylist taught me how to style my curls when I didn’t even know I had them! I loved the feeling I left with, and knew then that I wanted to pass that feeling on to others. I take a lot of pride in educating my clients on ways to see the potential in their own hair, to reach their goals, and to match their lifestyle.

I specialize in all curl types and textures and I love setting my clients up with an at-home regimen geared toward their everyday habits and showing them ways to get salon results at home.

A fter moving to New York from California to pursue my passion for hair and fashion, I attended Aveda Institute in Manhattan. I have always been artistic and love working with my hands, so hairdressing is a perfect fit. I love helping people feel their best and I truly care for my clients’ well-being. Given that I’m a Californian at heart, it’s no surprise that I love creating blondes and creative colors.

I love the ocean, I listen to a lot of different genres of music, and occasionally pick up the guitar. I’m looking forward to continuing to broaden my skills at The Bird House and I can’t wait to see you in my chair!

G rowing up in a small Southern town, going to the hair salon was intertwined with being a part of our community. We’d all leave the salon feeling beautiful and ever since I was young I wanted to be a part of that experience. I attended Arrojo here in NYC and began my career at The Bird House.

I have had the opportunity to learn from the best of the best here, and I’m honored to now put everything I’ve learned to practice. My specialties include blonding, reds, and curly cuts. Whenever I’m not in the salon, I love hanging out with my pups, Dixie and Amos, and trying new restaurants with my husband.

A s a kid, my candy store was the salon—my passion for all things beauty has always been innate. Before I graduated the Aveda Institute NYC, I got a bachelor’s in psychology, because I wanted to learn the science of people before I embarked in my career in hair. The connection between you and your stylist is the foundation for creating beautiful hair. It’s not quite therapy, it’s Hairapy. When you’re in my chair, I am dedicated to listening and turning your vision into a reality, providing you with well-deserved pampering, and also teaching how to care for your hair.

I specialize in seamless balayage and blonding, meticulous color corrections and cool-toned brunettes. In my free time, you can find me luxuriating in the bath, hair mask in, face mask on, Celine Dion playing in the background. Let’s do your hair.
