Who is she

WHO IS SHE?!

Hi! I’m Erin. Welcome to my li’l website. I made it myself. 

Experience, Education & Professionalism

I became a hairstylist because I know what it’s like to need help and not be able to find it. Growing up in Ukiah, I couldn’t afford to get my hair done, and there wasn’t anyone with the skill level to give me the rainbow-colored hair I just had to have. So, I took matters into my own hands and started coloring my own hair at 15—and I haven’t stopped since. Back then, I was doing my hair before YouTube tutorials were even a thing!

 

Today, my passion revolves around providing the help I so desperately wanted when I was younger. I empower my clients to embrace and love their natural hair, help them manage it, and color it beautifully—without sacrificing the health of the hair. I’m all about healthy hair that grows strong, coloring that causes minimal damage, and using clean, non-toxic products that align with my own values.

I know firsthand how frustrating it is to look in the mirror and feel dissatisfied, or out of control when it comes to your hair. Your hair should be a source of ease, pride, and self-expression—and I’m here to make that happen for you.

The Struggles You Face

Living in Ukiah, I know you’ve probably struggled to find a skilled stylist, especially when it comes to going blonde without damaging your hair. Maybe you’ve had a bad experience with a botched color job, or you’re frustrated by a rough grow-out phase. I’ve heard clients say they feel like their stylist didn’t listen and just did what they wanted. Some of you live out in the hills on well water, which adds its own challenges for hair care. I solve these problems through education, specialized treatments, and a focus on keeping your hair healthy and happy.

My Approach

When it comes to hairstyling, I believe in low maintenance and high integrity. I’m here to create a plan that fits your life—both your time and your budget. I’m a big believer in educating my clients about their hair and giving you the tools and knowledge to take care of it long-term. Whether you’re looking for a low-maintenance routine or a full color transformation, I’ll make sure you leave my studio with a clear understanding of how to care for your hair.

I’ve spent years building my skillset, continually seeking education on both technical skills and creating an excellent client experience. I believe in being humble, open, and easy-going—you’ll never feel judged or uncomfortable in my studio. My work is unique, and I make sure to follow up to ensure you’re happy with the results.

A Space Made For You

My private studio is a hideaway designed just for you. I want it to feel like a peaceful escape from the stress of everyday life in Mendo, like you’ve stepped into a sanctuary away from the rest of the world. You’ll find a calming space with lavender essential oils, unique art, and Spotify playlists you can choose. I am happy to make accommodations for sensory preferences.
 
I’m here to ensure you feel cared for, comfortable, and accepted. Whether you’re looking for a simple trim or a bold color transformation, you can be yourself here—no masks, no judgment, just genuine support.

My Promise to You

I’m incredibly proud of my insatiable quest for knowledge, especially my ability to hyperfocus on hair science thanks to my ADHD. But what I’m most proud of is when clients tell me, “I’ve never had hair this healthy,” or, “I didn’t think it could grow this long!” Seeing my clients thrive after a year of working together is the most rewarding part of my job.

I’m passionate about helping my clients feel empowered and in control of their hair. You deserve to feel comfortable in your own skin, and your hair should be a reflection of that.

Most importantly, I want you to know that when you’re in my chair, you’ll always get honesty, care, and a judgment-free experience. I’m here to help you feel confident, empowered, and excited about your hair, no matter where you are on your journey.
