Vanessa has been behind the chair for 16 years, with a love for hair that started long before cosmetology school.

Raised in a salon from day one, she grew up immersed in the industry, and by high school she was already the go-to for friends’ updos and event styling. That early start, paired with her naturally creative side, eventually led her to the International Institute of Cosmetology and into a career that’s been shaping her ever since.

Known for her artistic eye and steady, experience-led approach, Vanessa delivers polished, wearable hair that fits real life. Her most in-demand services include Brazilian Blowouts and keratin treatments, lived-in color, traditional foils, and root retouches, with a focus on healthy shine, seamless grow-out, and results that stay looking fresh between visits. Originally from Rocky Hill, CT, she’s built a reputation on consistent work and making clients feel confident in the chair.

Outside the salon, Vanessa’s life revolves around her family. She’s a boy mom, and she loves traveling with her husband and two sons whenever they can get away.
