Meet the talented Art + Science hair stylists.

Together, the Art + Science team has learned from some of the top names in the industry, including Salt Society, Tracey Cunningham, Beth Minardi, and the professionals at Nine Zero One in Los Angeles. After decades of extensive training and experience, our hair stylists have developed a unique menu full of innovative techniques and salon services meant to give you a red carpet-worthy look.
