Hey, friend, I'm Rachel. I build confidence and make people feel great about themselves through hair color and extension in Monmouth County. 

 As a mom of two, I understand the need to look and feel good with minimal effort daily. That's why I specialize in creating low-maintenance, personalized colors that cater to your busy lifestyle. The goal is to have long-lasting effects, resulting in fewer salon visits. I am also incredibly passionate about hair extensions. As someone who has fine hair, I can attest to the power extensions have to offer. Extensions can make you feel like a superwoman with versatile styles and a boost in confidence.  

While many colorists can design a beautiful color for you, what sets me apart is my ability to connect with clients and build long-term relationships, resulting in a hair journey that brings you through different stages of your life with beautiful hair transformations. I pride myself on deep listening skills, carefully considering your goals, and making consultations thorough and effective—my meticulous attention to detail and commitment to precision color guarantee gorgeous results. Consistency is key for me, and I continually seek to keep your look fresh and updated from season to season. 

 I am often told that I am down-to-earth and an empath with whom you can easily connect. When you sit in my chair, you can expect deep conversations or comfortable silence, whichever you prefer. 

With over 20 years of experience, my extensive education and training build trust with my clients. I've completed numerous advanced courses, including Wella Color Courses, Vidal Sassoon, Davines Teacher Training and Color Courses, ION Studios Updos and Balayage Classes, and certifications in Cezanne Soothing Treatments and Bellami Extensions. My expertise is further solidified with certifications from Invisible Bead Extension (IBE), Davines Advanced Color Classes, Roch Lemay Color Mentoring, and BIG RUDE HAIR Curly Coloring. I've been fortunate to travel to Monaco, France; Nashville, TN; Chicago; Santa Monica, CA; and Miami for training. I am fortunate to have enriched my skills at Fashion Week in NYC.

My children are my driving force, and I am proudly a football and dance mom. I am also certified as a group trainer and nutrition coach,  with a love for teaching cycling and active lifestyle. I have a dream of owning a mini farm, which is not too far off these days! If you follow me on social media, you will see the cameos of my chickens, ducks, bearded dragons, and dogs. Born and raised in Jersey, I have a deep love for the beach and ocean, and enjoying evening sunset paddle-boarding sessions with my crew is something I look forward to. At the end of the day I look forward to cozying up with my family and diamond painting.
