Janelle Neilson-Friedrich

Owner - Stylist

I love to create... I love to be inspired... I love doing great hair... Being a hairstylist means believing that knowledge is the key to everyday beauty. In today's world the eye of beauty is so diverse yet the internal value is to feel beautiful and experience beauty. With my creativity and passion for excellence I feel a sense of freedom when I am behind the chair. I have an insatiable hunger for knowledge, I attend a number of classes and seminars every year in order to stay ahead of the curve and keep up with the cutting edge hair trends.

"I believe hairdressing is an art it's like a blank canvas. I love coming to work. It makes me feel good knowing that I'm helping make a little part of the planet feel and look beautiful and that's my art."

Lani Nutt

Stylist

I have been a hair designer since 1989, a majority of those years being in upscale salons in the affluent downtown Seattle area. I have been fortunate to work closely with a prominent facial reconstructive surgeon for five of those years encompassing all aspects of beauty and well being. I have been very blessed to take part in a profession where one can really be able to attach service with friendship.

I love what I do and get a great sense of joy knowing that everyday I get to connect on such an intimate level with others. I have a passion for making people feel special about their own individual sense of style. I realize the trust that comes with such personal relations and really try and stay within a client's comfort zone. There is so much inner beauty in all of us and it's so rewarding to know that I can help others to find that about themselves. I give my full attention to the client sitting in my chair and really try and listen to what their wants and needs are, combined with their lifestyle and goals. My top priority is making my clients feel that they are beautiful both inside and out. I want my clients to feel comfortable in their own skin.

I guarantee consistent results so that a trusting relationship can be built. I offer professionalism, warmth and passion about beauty. I take pride in connecting with each client with sincerity, truly listening and trying to understand what it is the client is searching for and how we can achieve that dream.

I love all aspects of hair. My services include haircuts, color and perms. My specialties are in highlights, fine-textured hair and special occasion hair.

I would love to meet you!

Rachel Miletich

Stylist

I am the true definition of a free spirit; someone who requires a creative outlet to be happy. Working with hair inspires me. I love the idea that a person can use their hair to express their internal colors without saying one word. I find joy in creating the perfect style, cut and color to accentuate my guest's face, body structure, image and lifestyle. I love turning someone's boredom into excitement, with a vision we can create together.
My services consist of haircutting, highlighting, baliage, color and special occasion styling. I also focus on maintaining the integrity of my guests' hair and offer deep conditioning, moisture and protein treatments. In addition, I educate my guests on how to best take care of and style their hair at home.
I have been in the industry since 2001. I also work at Baroque Salon in Tacoma.

Jo Rios

Stylist

I've been a stylist since I was a little girl, it all started when my mom cut my first set of bangs, after that first snip, I was hooked!! Dolls, pets, and friends no one was spared my creative vision!! However, I've been licensed circa, 1995. My first day at beauty school began with perms and I was like YES!! This is so awesome!! I just wanted to know all there was to know about hair.... cutting, coloring, reconfiguring the bonds....so exciting!!

That enthusiasm and excitement to learn is always present. I am dedicated to educating myself on the latest trends and techniques so that I am knowledgeable and can offer my guest a variety of looks.

I respect and honor my guest by listening to their likes and dislikes with their hair, the amount of time spent styling and their general goal for the look they would like to achieve. I truly enjoy creating a style that is unique to their facial type as well as their lifestyle.
