Bailey
INSPIRATION: I feel very inspired by nature. When I see things come together so organically in regards to color, it sparks the memory of all the natural beauty we see in the world. Edgy high-end fashion also gets my creative mind thinking outside of the box. Most importantly, the salon environment is my muse. It gives me joy to connect with clients and give them a positive change for themselves.
EXPERTISE: Hair color is my passion. Everything from a golden free-hand painted balayage to a statement-making red makes my heart smile. I love playing with a wide range of colors to make client's hair dreams come to life.
PRODUCT: Apres Beach from Oribe give the perfect amount of texture and shine for that effortless lived in look. Another favorite is the entire Extentioniste line from Kerastase. It helps transform your hair from the inside out. It is personally changing my life.

EXPERIENCE: Hairdressing since 2021
INSPIRATION: I’m inspired by change. This is an evolving industry where there’s always new trends emerging, techniques to master, or products to try…and I want it all!
EXPERTISE: Any type of blonding: lived-in and dimensional, sun-kissed brunettes, and traditional highlights. I also love cutting - especially big, bouncy layers.
PRODUCT: Anything that’s going to keep hair long and healthy. There is a perfect shampoo, conditioner, heat protector, and styling product for each and every hair type. The goal is customizing them to you!

EXPERIENCE: I’ve been doing hair for 10 years!
INSPIRATION: Instagram, celebrities, coworkers and my clients! I’m always wanting to learn more!
EXPERTISE: Dimensional color! I love enhancing a clients natural color by customizing lived in highlights/balayage best suited for them! Who doesn’t love low-maintenance?
PRODUCT: I’m a product junkie! Can’t go without my moisturizing creams and serums- my favorite is Kerastase Elixir Ultime. Also can’t go without texture spray- Oribe Dry is the best hands down.
Dori
EXPERIENCE: Experience: I have been a stylist for two years and started at Solo in 2021.
INSPIRATION: Instagram will always inspire me, but also happy clients. Being able to make someone feel more confident in themselves with a new color or style inspires me to do more daily!
EXPERTISE: I love doing any type of lightening service whether it is blonding or making the hair look sun kissed through balayage. My expertise is to make hair color look soft and natural like you were born with it but with a little extra pop! I also love a good face frame. I feel like it can really open someone’s face and give the hair some fun texture!
PRODUCT: My favorite product would have to be R&Co Bleu Lifestyler. This is my favorite product because it finishes off every type of style from beachy waves to a bouncy blowout by giving the hair some texture and lift. I also feel as if it helps the hair hold a style because it puts some grit in the hair, so it is not too soft. Lifestyler completely brings the hair back to life and makes it look like you belong in a Victoria Secret fashion show!

EXPERIENCE: Hairdressing since 2021.
INSPIRATION: My biggest inspiration is the way clients speak about the love for their hair and new products from our last session, and the joy on their faces at the end of their service. I am grateful for the Solo team, learning from their experiences and brainstorming ideas for our clients. The nature of continuous education in the industry through classes and social media excites me to continue to elevate my skills and master new techniques. Finally, the connection between people within the salon - stylists and clients - makes coming to the salon each day something I truly look forward to.
EXPERTISE: Enhancing natural beauty and transforming hair through color, cut, and extensions. I love creating dimensional and lived in lightening looks. By observing features and assessing what would compliment them best, each appointment is an opportunity for a fresh fresh take on a clients hair, whether they’re new to my chair or not.
PRODUCT: I have a major product addiction! The right combination of products makes all the difference in achieving your desired look. Some of my ultimate favorites are Oribe’s Impermeable to maintain your style in humidity, Oribe’s Hair Alchemy Serum to strengthen your strands and was made with extensions in mind, and everything from the Kerastase Chroma Absolu line!
