About me
Hi! I’m Peyten, a passionate cosmetology student who loves creativity, fun, and connecting with others. I’ve always had a fascination with hair—there’s something so rewarding about transforming a look and seeing the joy it brings. I’m constantly exploring new techniques and love perfecting blowouts and mastering extensions. I’m also proud to be Bellami Certified, which helps me deliver the highest quality results while ensuring healthy, beautiful hair.
Hair health is incredibly important to me. I make it a priority to protect the integrity of the hair during every transformation, because lasting beauty starts with healthy hair. I’ve dedicated a lot of time to making sure my own hair stays strong and gorgeous, and I bring that same care and attention to all of my clients.
I’m a bubbly, outgoing person who loves to connect with others, and I’m always up for a good laugh—I’m definitely a jokester! When I’m not behind the chair, you can probably find me reading (I’m a bit of a bookworm). Music is another big part of my life, and I love how styling hair and singing both allow me to express my creativity.
I’m passionate about specializing in blonding and extensions, and I’m also really excited to explore copper shades further. I’m always learning, always growing, and I can’t wait to help bring out the best in everyone I work with!

Why I'm here
I originally considered pursuing a career in the medical field, specifically dermatology, because I’ve always had a strong interest in skincare and helping people feel good about themselves. However, my true passion has always been in the beauty industry. From a young age, I’ve loved everything about hair—how it can transform a person’s look and how amazing it feels to help someone feel confident and beautiful.
After a lot of thought, I made the decision to follow my heart and pursue cosmetology instead of dermatology, and I couldn’t be happier with that choice. Every day in cosmetology school feels like the perfect fit for me. I get to combine my creativity with my love for connecting with people, all while helping others feel their best. I’m beyond excited to continue learning, growing, and ultimately building a career where I can make a real difference in people’s lives, one hairstyle at a time.
