Hi, I'm Tara. It's nice to meet you.

I have been a hairstylist specializing in cutting since 1997.

I teach people about their face shape and craft custom haircuts designed specifically for them.

I grew up in New York City. I’ve lived on both coasts and in the Midwest. I’m a little bit country and a little bit rock and roll.

In my travels, I’ve learned about different lifestyles and cultures. I’ve learned to work with various hair textures, face shapes, and bone structures.

I’m known for my custom consultations and dry cutting.

Dry cutting allows me to feel the texture and weight of your hair. It also helps to give a more balanced and precise haircut. When your hair is dry, I can see exactly how it will frame your beautiful face, enhance your unique features, and show off those gorgeous eyes – giving you a true custom haircut.

“Good design has a profound impact on one’s life. Good design creates balance, organization, and a sense of peace.”

I believe in kindness, transparency, and truth. I have a passion for education and will always be a student.

I live for good conversation while providing a positive, safe, and stress-free salon environment.

Schedule a haircut with me. You’ll look and feel your best.

See you soon!

Xo, TS
