Artist & Founder Mari Hernandez
Hey, I’m Mari. I specialize in surf-inspired balayage and hand painting while dreaming of mermaid locks, tropical sand and piña coladas. When I’m not at the salon, you can usually find me at the beach or hunting down coffee along the PCH. Mostly I love spending time with my clients and enjoy the process of bringing their color dreams to a reality. I love working with all types of hair, and especially having naturally curly hair myself, I know the best ways to enjoy the curl while containing the frizz. Just as trends change, I’m constantly educating myself. I want my clients to feel their best while looking natural and refreshed!
Artist Kirsten Eliot
Hey, I’m Kirsten. I bring a laid back coastal vibe to every appointment. I adore working with lived in blondes, dimensional brunettes and hand tied extensions with a focus on creating effortlessly beautiful hair that feels as natural as a day at the beach. When I’m not at the salon you’ll find me soaking up the sun with my dog, flying in the wind tunnel or flowing through aerial silks. Whether you’re catching waves or catching up over coffee your hair should make you feel confident. I’m passionate about everything I do both inside and outside the salon.
Artist Lexi Aquino
I’m Lexi! My passion for hair started when I was itty bitty giving my dad updos & saving up to buy Barbie doll heads to play on! I’ve been blessed in my career to work in both Orange County & Australia alongside very talented stylists. I gravitate towards natural, dimensional colors anywhere from grey to blonde to black, as well as custom haircuts to compliment any client's unique facial features & style! I believe a cut is only as good as the color & visa versa :)
I’m allll about quality & longevity as your hairstylist. I want you to LOVE your hair & be able to wear it to your highest potential. I’ll help you find the best route to take care of your locks! Can’t wait to have you in my chair
Xx Lexi
