Growing up on NJ beaches Jessica started styling hair in 2012. For five years she focused on thick wavy hair on most of her clients in north Jersey. During that time Jessica took master classes at Vidal Sassoon in New York studying precision cutting and creative color techniques. Moving to northern Philly she mainly worked with blondes for a year.
Jessica and her husband took a life changing honeymoon to southern India in 2018. With an adventurous few months and a cross-country road trip, they were inspired and moved to south Denver. Hair has always been an obsession but on her days off she spends her days hiking, snowboarding, doing yoga, visiting museums, and enjoying great restaurants.
Over the past five years of enjoying Colorado, Jessica has done many corrective colors, balayages and fashion colors.
Jessica has a background in yoga teaching and has studied ayurvedic holistic health at Kripalu.
