Ashley BARTON
stylist
She/THEY
Ashley is a born and raised Austinite who has been dyeing her own hair since she was 18 (she would cut it herself too if she could). Using her hair as a form of expression and constantly being her own guinea pig, her friends started to notice and requested her to dye their hair too. Ashley has always wanted a career that would leave people feeling better about themselves, first studying psychology at Texas State University. She’s always expressed herself through art as well, so naturally, hair seemed like the perfect creative outlet and career! She’s most interested in alternative and creative cuts, color blocking, and anything vivid. If you’ve got that one cut you’ve thought about for years but have been too nervous to take the leap, Ashley will take that leap with you and give you your dream cut!
Ashley’s interests aside from hair include drawing and painting, video games, anime/manga, movies (especially horror), fashion, and hitting up the nearest yard sale or art market on weekends.

Maddie Angle
Stylist
she/her
Once upon a time, many years ago, there was a group of teenage girls gathered in a bathroom past their bedtime. Little did their parents know their little girls would come home with a whole new look thanks to some store-bought hair dye.
Since then, I love doing wild colors and wild cuts! I’ve been in the industry for over 2 years in school and in salons. I am a well-rounded stylist thanks to my multiple mentorships, and I’m excited to take on any task given to me. I’ll listen to your needs and we will work together to make you feel like a better, more comfortable you.
In my free time, I love to draw and play video games! I would love nothing more than to nerd out with someone or listen to anything you’re passionate about! Making a friendly connection and long-term trust with my clients is my goal, and I can’t wait to meet more wonderful people.
