Rachel’s passion for beauty and wellness started at the age of 14. In 2004, she graduated with a degree in Cosmetology from the Continental School of Beauty. She then graduated from the Onondaga School of Therapeutic Massage in 2018.
Rachel loves to bring out the beauty in her clients’ hair by paying close attention to their needs. She also believes that the only way to stay current in the beauty industry is by taking continuing education. “Hair is one of our most important accessories and the first thing people notice right away,” she says.
Rachel strongly values her relationships with her clients and works to create a custom look for every person who sits in her chair. When she is not working her magic at our salon or improving the overall wellness of her clients in our treatment room, she spends quality time with her loving husband and five beautiful children.
“I am so grateful for the opportunity that God has given me to live my dreams of building a strong business in what I love, having flexibility for my family, and being able to make a difference in the many lives of my clients that walk through the door of my salon.”
