From Hairstylist to Trichologist
When I first stepped into the world of beauty, my dream was simple: help people feel confident, radiant, and at ease in their own skin. I never imagined that my path would lead me into the fascinating, intricate world of scalp health - but looking back, it feels like every step prepared me for this calling.
Early Beginnings in Hair
I’ve called the greater Los Angeles area home since I was eight years old. After graduating from Pasadena Unified schools, I pursued my passion for hair at Pasadena City College’s Cosmetology program, earning my license in 2014.
My early years in the industry, I worked on set and in salons across Beverly Hills, Studio City, and Pasadena - perfecting my craft, learning from industry leaders, and building lasting relationships with my clients.
Creating a Safe, Personalized Space
In 2020, in the midst of a world turned upside down, I envisioned a haven where clients could receive deeply personal, private hair care. That dream became Hair Dreams Boutique Salon, a tucked-away retreat in the hills of Pasadena, designed to be as comfortable and safe as it is beautiful.
From Extensions Expert to Educator
My specialty in hair extensions led to a new role I cherish - teaching. As an educator, I’ve shared techniques and “aha moments” with stylists nationwide, helping them bring artistry and integrity to every application. Education has always been my way of giving back to the industry that gave me so much.
Discovering the Deeper Story Behind Hair Loss
But over time, I began noticing something: many clients came to me not only for beauty transformations, but because they were struggling with thinning hair or scalp concerns. Extensions could give them instant length or volume - but they didn’t solve the underlying issue.
That’s when I knew I had to go deeper.
Becoming a Board Certified Trichologist
In 2024, I completed advanced training to become an AADP Board Certified Trichologist, a specialist in hair and scalp health. This opened up a whole new world of science-based, personalized solutions that address hair concerns at their root - literally.
A Holistic Approach to Hair and Scalp Wellness
Today, my work blends advanced technology with holistic philosophy, offering treatments such as:
Yume Head Spa - Relaxing scalp therapy that improves circulation and balances the nervous system.
Infrared Sauna - Gentle, penetrating heat that boosts circulation, encourages detoxification, reduces stress hormones, and supports overall wellness - all of which can contribute to healthier hair growth.
Vibration Plate Therapy - Whole-body vibration stimulates lymphatic flow, improves blood circulation, and enhances nutrient delivery, creating a supportive environment for scalp and follicle health.
Calecim® Advanced Hair System - Stem cell-derived growth factors to rejuvenate follicles and reduce inflammation.
Alma TED - Pain-free transdermal delivery of nutrients and peptides for visible hair restoration results.
Each method is chosen based on the individual - because no two scalps, or stories, are alike.
Why Scalp Health Matters to Me
For me, scalp health is more than a treatment menu - it’s the missing link in so many people’s hair journeys. By restoring scalp balance, we can help hair grow stronger, fuller, and healthier… and with that comes renewed self-confidence.
