Managing Designer IV Stylist

Xennon Academy – 2015,  Aveda Certified Stylist

Executing a customized look that all my guests can recreate at home, is my #1 priority. I want you to feel and look like your best self.

I love staying on top of my education and consistently challenge myself behind the chair. Outside of the salon, I love spending time with my husband & our young son. We have a miniature dachshund, Charlee (who I might be obsessed with)

Fun facts about me: My favorite food group is baked goods and my husband and I eloped on a mountain

Janaye Lovely

Designer II Stylist

Xenon Academy – 2017

I specialize in hand painting and lived in colors. I am here to give you a natural look with either using a balayage technique or foils!

Outside the salon you’ll find me being your #1 plant mom and auntie. I enjoy the simple things in life and good conversation.

Nicole Beck

Designer II Stylist

I came to Omaha from Arkansas, where I went to hair school. I loves a good fashion color or blonding session, and as an animal lover, I’m working on having a full fellowship of pets. I have Gandalf the cat, Frodo the beagle, and working on a French bulldog.
