Hair by Ashley Jo

I've been a licensed hair stylist since 2003, specializing in extensions, multi dimension coloring, cutting and bridal up-do's. I've been licensed doing hair extensions since 2004 which give length to short hair or fullness to thin hair. I have had advanced training in multi dimension and 3D coloring and cutting. I have exceptional experience working with all hair types including curly, thinning, straight, coarse, over-processed and ethnic hair. I've mastered making fine, thin hair look thick and full of body and making thick, coarse or curly hair look tame with tons of shine.

I also specialize in bridal up-do's from the most classic looks to intricate or avant-garde runway styles. I'm trained in techniques like highlighting, shadowing, accent colors and eyelash extensions for a flawless makeup finish. I also graduated from Florida Gulf Coast University in 2010 with a bachelors degree, cum laude, in business management, where I gained an understanding on the business aspect in this industry.

My inspiration comes from my grandmother, who was a salon owner and stylist. I can remember as a young girl, looking forward to playing with the manikins in her salon and shampooing her clients. That was the foundation that started my passion for hair. I believe that any amazing hairstylist is born with a natural ability, that is then combined with experience and education, to make something great.

The most rewarding part about this profession is having the ability to help others feel and look incredible. It is what drives and motivates me each day! guard.
