Monica Amendano
Cofounder, Lead Cutting & Texture Specialist
From spiraled ringlets to sleek strands, every type of hair has a story, and I’m here to elevate yours. With a special affection for curly textures, reflecting my personal transition from years of straightening to celebrating the beautiful chaos of my natural curls—I take pride in my expertise across all hair dynamics. My prowess in precision cutting techniques, especially in the realms of pixies, bobs, shags, and both scissor and razor cuts, stands out, ensuring that every cut is tailored to enhance your individual style and face structure.
My craft has been sharpened at renowned institutions such as Oribe, Kevin Murphy, Kao Academy, and Rezo Academy. With experiences working in NYC and training with top stylists, I’ve mastered diverse cutting and styling techniques, always aiming to bring out the best in every hair type. From the very beginning, my training was heavily focused on mastering the art of cutting, making me adept at creating hairstyles that not only frame your face but also complement your personality.
Now, based in the serene surroundings of Westchester, I deliver a salon experience that’s a perfect blend of fun, comfort, and expertise. I’m all about empowering you to replicate that fresh-out-of-the-salon look right at home. Whether it’s an everyday style or a special event, I ensure my clients feel confident, sexy, and fabulous!

Karen Nieves
Cofounder, Lead Colorist & Stylist
As a brunette and blonde specialist, I view hair as a canvas, ready to be adorned with vibrant stories of color and style. Every shade I mix is more than just a hue. It’s meticulously tuned to suit your unique skin tone and personality. And my passion extends beyond conventional palettes. I revel in the challenge of gray blending, ensuring those natural sparkles are showcased in their full glory.
But beauty, in my book, isn’t just skin (or strand) deep. It’s about ensuring that your hair doesn’t just look fabulous but feels and stays healthy too. This is why I’ve married my craft with a commitment to eco-friendly, ammonia-free and non-toxic products. Embracing a hair coloring technique that prioritizes the hair’s integrity, each hue is infused with care, ensuring health and vibrancy remain paramount.
And while the world of color might be my playground, my expertise doesn’t stop there. Precision cutting, whether you’re looking for a seamless layered masterpiece or a dynamic play between scissors and razor, is a craft I hold close to my heart. I’ve honed my color, cutting and styling skills under the guidance of industry titans: Kevin Murphy, Master of Balayage, Moroccan Oil Academy, KAO Academy, and Oribe.
Together, we won’t just chase trends—we’ll set them, all while cherishing the natural integrity of your hair.
