Hi, I'm Dana, a colorist at Craft House Salon. Self-expression is key, and I love helping clients explore new styles. Whether you're here for a natural look or ready to embrace a party shade, I'm dedicated to making sure you feel you feel confident and beautiful.

Self-expression is vital, and as a mom of neurodivergent children, I know how draining it can be. It requires constant research and resources, often leaving little time for oneself. Knowing the importance of refilling your cup and taking time for yourself, even if that means adding a pop of pink to your hair, I am here for you. 

My calm and gentle approach sets me apart in this bustling industry. As a true introvert, I used to think I chose the wrong profession. So many stylists seem so much more fun and outgoing, but I realized being calm and gentle creates a relaxed environment where you can truly unwind. This allows me to connect deeply with clients on an individual level. Intentional in my approach, ensuring that every decision I make—from the placement of color to the lifestyle advice I offer—is designed to work for you. Consistency is vital; you can expect reliable, excellent results every time. My patience means I'll work with you to articulate your needs, even if you're unsure how to express them. I'm an active listener, attuned to your words and body language. This authenticity helps build trust and comfort, and a light-hearted approach makes each visit enjoyable. You always feel at ease in my chair. 

I've honed my skills with some of the best in the industry, including Vidal Sassoon, Wella, Davines, and Pulp Riot vivids. My extensive training includes Salt Society balayage, Davines color, and teacher training, courses with NOT ANOTHER SALON for blonding and vivids, and BIG RUDE HAIR for curly coloring. These experiences have enhanced my technical skills and deepened my passion for education, providing the best color care for each person in my chair. 

My style is unique—I love all things pink and kawaii, and yes, I'm a Barbie girl at heart. Despite being an introvert, I'm incredibly expressive and far from a wallflower. I'm deeply into spirituality and love music, especially alternative rock concerts. I'm a mom, wife, and lover of a dog, two hairless cats, and two bearded dragons. I'm a maximalist at heart, passionate about home decor, jewelry, and comedy. I enjoy Bravo reality TV, and my coffee is always an iced cold brew with cream. On my days off, I love spending time in nature; you'll find me at a playground or beach and doing family bike rides. 

Comfort is queen in my chair, and I'm always optimistic about achieving the best results for you and your hair. You can reserve time here -I look forward to meeting you.
