About me
Hi, I’m Via! I found my way to beauty school after college left me feeling unfulfilled, and I’ve never looked back. Hair is a vessel for my creative soul—I’ve always been inspired by the artistry of character design in video games and anime. Now I’m channeling that passion behind the chair, crafting one-of-a-kind cuts and colors that are uniquely you.

Why I'm here
Future Haircutter & Vivids Specialist | Salon Assistant with 2 Years Experience | Obsessed with the “Why” Behind the Work
With nearly two years of salon assisting under my belt, I’ve gained hands-on experience in what makes a salon run smoothly — from providing top-tier shampoo experiences to helping clients feel comfortable and cared for from start to finish.
I’ve developed a strong foundation in Davines product knowledge, basic color theory, and haircutting techniques, along with a deep commitment to client connection and maintaining a supportive salon environment.
What I’m truly passionate about now is growing into a master of haircutting — someone who understands the “why” behind every decision, line, and section. I’m looking for a one-on-one apprenticeship with a stylist or salon that values education, curiosity, and intention in the craft.
My long-term goal is to become a cutting expert and vivid color specialist who combines technical skill with creativity and connection. I learn best at a steady, intentional pace with focused mentorship — and I’m ready to dedicate myself fully to the journey.
If you’re looking for someone with heart, hustle, and hunger to grow, let’s connect.
