About Us

Ellen Powers

Stylist & Owner

Ellen has been a stylist for over ten years. She gained her experience and professional knowledge in Madison's higher end salons. She's always had the goal of eventually owning her own salon in order to create a work environment where the atmosphere was warm, friendly, eclectic, while still maintaining a high level of professionalism.

"Education will be an ongoing thing for me so that I am always current with the latest trends," says Ellen. Over the years, she has been to several hair trade shows here in Wisconsin, as well as classes in New York and California. "Trends aside though, I believe that your color and cut should look good on you. I will take the time to find what best suits you and make you look the best that you can!"
