I’m Emma and if there’s one thing I’m absolutely passionate about, it’s making your hair dreams come true! My passion for hairstyling was ignited during a tour at The Salon Professional Academy. The hands-on, creative nature of this profession instantly captured my heart. That was 9 years ago! While I may not be a North Carolina native, I’ve made this beautiful state my home after growing up in the picturesque Colorado.

The deep connections I’ve formed with my incredible guests and coworkers are what stand out the most in my career. Building relationships and making people feel comfortable is what I’m all about.I truly believe that every guest should feel beautiful and welcome. I strive to create a warm and kind environment where everyone feels seen! One of the absolute highlights for me is connecting with clients on a personal level. Meeting people from all walks of life, hearing their stories, and getting to know them on a deeper level is incredibly rewarding.

Now, when it comes to my favorite services, I absolutely thrive on hand-tied extensions and bringing out the beauty in blondes. There’s something magical about creating that perfect shade.One of the game-changers in my career was receiving certification in Invisible Bead Extensions. It took my career to new heights, and I’ve watched it grow exponentially since I started offering extensions.

Staying ahead in the ever-evolving world of hair fashion is a top priority. I’m always seeking out education to stay updated and deliver the best in my favorite services. When faced with a hair challenge, I dive deep into the consultation to create a customized, unique game plan for each guest’s goals. I want everyone who sits in my chair to leave feeling heard and absolutely loving their hair.

If there’s one lesson I’ve learned loud and clear during my hairstyling career, it’s that communication is key! For me, hair care is all about helping people feel beautiful on the outside, which in turn lets them project their inner beauty into the world. I consider the trio of shampoo, conditioner, and leave-in treatment the holy grail. Customizing services is my forte. I always keep in mind a guest’s hair texture, density, scalp health, and maintenance needs to create a perfect outcome every time.These are the essentials for keeping hair looking and feeling its best.

Outside of the hairstyling world, I’m an adventure enthusiast. I love to travel, groove to all sorts of music, and cherish quality time with my family. Now, here’s a little surprise about me: I’m an adventurous eater who will try almost anything, but I have a secret dislike for cheese. Yep, I’m one of those rare cheese-haters!When I'm not behind the chair, I enjoy spending time with my fiancé and two (feline) fur babies, Oliver and Dakota. Call me a cat lady because I'm absolutely obsessed with those guys. My mother is my role model, a true fighter who inspires me every day with her strength and resilience. Her unwavering determination reminds me to push through any challenges, both in my career and life beyond it.

But let’s not make this all about me. My true joy in this profession comes from turning your hair dreams into reality. It’s about you feeling your absolute best, whether it’s a new look, a color transformation, or simply a fresh, confidence-boosting haircut. Let’s chat about your hair goals, and together, we’ll make them a beautiful reality!
