Lindsay Duer

Executive Stylist + Lead Mentor

Aveda Institute Graduate 2007
Aveda Certified Stylist for 13 years

In the words of Phoebe Waller-Bridge: “Hair is everything. We wish it wasn’t so we could actually think about something else occasionally. But it IS.” I love working one on one with other humans to achieve a look that reflects your personality and honest expression. I enjoy efficiently solving your hair, scalp, and styling challenges to enable you to occasionally think about something else. Outside the salon I collect hobbies, oddities, facts and possibilities. I can talk to almost anyone about almost anything, but I also offer silent appointments (post consultation) for those wanting a more meditative experience!
