Mikayla Subrina Bailey

I'm Mikayla Bailey, a client-focused emerging cosmetologist with two years of hands-on salon experience and a passion for luxury hair care. Currently an Apprentice Stylist at Scott J Salons, an Aveda Lifestyle Salon in New York City, I specialize in delivering a calm, elevated guest experience from the shampoo bowl to the styling chair. My skill set spans cutting, blowouts, silk press, single-process color, highlights, air-touch, and color formulation — with a growing extension specialization actively in development. Trained at Arrojo Academy and certified through Wella, Barbicide, and industry educators including Lana Kurayeva and Asil Simsek, I bring a detail-driven, coachable approach to every service and a genuine commitment to refined guest care.

My biggest inspiration has been a family friend, who is a celebrity stylist. Getting my hair done as a child and watching her career grow has been love at first sight moments for me. The mix of fashion, travel, beauty and therapy make it all worthwhile.

I am focusing my career on extensions, sew-in weaves and hair loss solutions because I love to be the creator of transformations in women and men.  

I specialize in blowouts for all textures, color silk presses, and precision & razor cutting. I have taken several paid courses to enhance these basic skills and I continue to take additional continuing education courses. I have had training carious cutting methods, color with air touch niche, and sew-in extensions. I have taken a textured blow out class and I am due to also take a two day blowout mastery.
