Mia Malchow

I'm an award-recognized hair artist, creative visionary, educator, and the founder of Electric Leopard Hair Studio. Known for my bold approach to color, transformative corrective work, and avant-garde hair artistry, I've built a reputation for turning hair into living art while helping clients and stylists alike step boldly into self-expression.

With over 15k+ followers on Instagram and a growing professional audience across social platforms, I have cultivated a community that values artistry, authenticity, and innovation in the beauty industry. My woek has earned national recognition, including being named 2 x Top 100 in the One Shot Hair Awards for Creative Color, Top 25 for Hair Tattoos, 2 x Top 10 at The Rainbow Convention, and a 2 x nominee for the Booksylive America’s Live Fashion Hair Awards for Best Color Transformation.

As an independent educator, I have created The Masterpiece Method, an immersive advanced color and artistry education experience designed to help stylists elevate their technical skill, expand their artistic vision, and build profitable careers behind the chair. Through traveling classes and host salon partnerships across the country, I teache stylists how to approach hair not just as a service, but as a craft, a canvas, and a powerful form of personal expression.

In addition to my work behind the chair and in the classroom, I collaborate with professional beauty brands to create high impact educational and artistic content that resonates with both consumers and industry professionals. My unique blend of technical authority, creative direction, and storytelling allows brands to showcase products in an authentic, visually compelling way that inspires real engagement and trust within the professional beauty community.

At the heart of my work is a belief that creativity changes lives. Whether I'm transforming a client, mentoring stylists, partnering with innovative brands, or teaching my signature methods in salons across the country, my mission is to elevate the beauty industry through artistry, education, and bold individuality.

I am currently available for brand partnerships, educational collaborations, creative campaigns, speaking opportunities, and host salon bookings for The Masterpiece Method.
