Hi, I’m Abigail

Cutting • Blonding • Lived-In Color

I’m a fifth-generation native to Colorado, with 13 years of experience behind the chair, I bring a technical, detail-oriented approach to hairstyling, paired with a deep love for genuine connection. I specialize in low-maintenance, high-impact hair: precision cutting, seamless blonding, soft babylights, and lived-in color that grows out effortlessly.

Formerly, I served as an educator in cutting and perm techniques, teaching in-salon classes across Colorado. I especially enjoy working with curly-haired clients, guiding them step by step through the technical side of styling so they feel confident and empowered in their natural texture.

But more than the craft itself, it’s the people who drive me. I have deep respect for the stories they carry. I thrive on connecting with kind, easy-going individuals who want to feel seen, heard, and cared for. My evening hours are designed to support working-class clients, who I’ve always connected with most deeply, and it’s an honor to create space for them.

If you’re looking for honest conversation, elevated technique, and hair that truly fits your life, I’d love to meet you.
