I love creating beautiful hair that works in your lifestyle, and helping you solve your hair and scalp problems. I am a certified Hair Loss Practitioner with USTI and AMCA.
I started doing hair in 2006 and I opened the salon in 2015. At home I have my husband who is a Corralitos native, our three daughters, and two wild pups.
I got into doing hair by accident. I didn't like the classes in college, and I didn't like the job I had (selling cellphones sucked in the early 2000's). So, I decided to enroll in cosmetology school because, it was a short program and sounded kinda fun. I had no idea I'd still be doing hair and loving my career all these years later.
Since moving to Corralitos, I have fallen in love with community and small town vibe. Opening the salon made me want to really connect with the community and I have been fortunate to meet many neighbors and locals and make a lot of friends.
I feel fortunate to live, work, and raise my babies in such a wonderful community.

Hair Extensions
I am a San Juan Bautista native, but I got my start in hair while living in Utah. I began doing hair in 2009, and took a hiatus to raise my babies. I have two wild kids who are in growing up way too fast, and are keeping me on my toes (you mamas know what I'm talking about🙄).
When I started working at The Hair Studio, Corralitos I was just getting back into hair and didn't really have a plan. Through my amazing clients I reignited my passion for my career and also found some amazing friends along the way.
Even though I don't live here in Corralitos I feel fortunate to spend my work days and some of my play days here with my clients and friends.

I am a Mama to 4 kids aged high school to preschool. When I'm not in the salon I'm either driving the kids around or working in our family construction business.
I started doing hair in High School, and I have worked in Hair Replacement, Education, and traditional salon environments. I love doing hair because it allows me to be creative while hanging out and chatting with amazing people.

I am born and raised in Soquel and Aptos. I love our area and I am so excited to grow my career here.
Covid really messed with my high school career, but I knew I wanted to become a hairstylist. I attended the Gavilan College Cosmetology program. My favorite services in school were haircuts and hair color.
I am a cat 🐱 mom, and a lover of all dogs.
When I'm not in the salon I am probably outside riding dirt bikes or camping. When I'm home I love making jewelry and knitting (but it's always a struggle keeping the cats away from the yarn).
