With 30 years experience in this industry I’ve seen a lot of styles and trends come and go.
My career began in Florida and brought me here to Nashville in the early 80’s. I worked in a salon that was departmentalized, meaning I specialized in a certain aspect of hair care. I performed haircuts and perms and I did a lot of them. When the 90’s came along color was becoming more in demand with baby-boomers beginning to discover gray hair.
I placed my cutting and perming skills aside and began to pursue hair color diligently. Logics hair color was Clairol’s top of the line crème color system and it revolutionized hair color forever. They were the front runners in American hair color technology. I explored all opportunities for education they offered. I traveled… read books… and trained my eye to distinguish underlying tones in all color. I spent hours in fabric stores and paint samples. I excelled in this field yet I wasn’t satisfied. In 1999 I proceeded in becoming a board Certified hair colorist. They were a prestigious and highly honored group that was rigorously tested. It included written and oral testing, and implemented several different segments of practical examinations. That year I achieved my goal. I have been awarded the title and honor of being an ABCH www.haircolorists.com
Where to now? I am the proud owner of Baxter and Company where we are committed to raising the bar. I have surrounded myself with a group of professionals that share the passion within this industry. My acquired knowledge is now being happily shared with young aspiring hairdressers. We as a team have established that this continual is what separates us from the others.
