Hi! I'm Mel! I've been making my name as a curly + wavy hair specialist over the course of my career, but I enjoy working with all textures, thicknesses + lengths. After working as a haircutting specialist for over seven years, I've really enjoyed getting back into custom color. My favorite color projects enhance your natural look by using complementary tones + strategic color placements, but I also love a fun vivid moment! I am very passionate about healthy hair, which is why I offer treatments like Olaplex + Lasio Keratin smoothing to keep your hair looking and feeling its best. When I'm not at the studio, I'm listening to all kinds of music, hiking, tending to our many houseplants, creating art + spending quality time with my partner + loved ones. I can't wait to meet you!

At Happy Hair Salon, our love for this Earth and all the creatures and curiosities it holds drives everything we do. Minimizing waste in the beauty industry is essential if we want our planet to remain healthy and gorgeous. To support this cause, Happy Hair Co is participating in a pilot recycling program called Reclaim by Nomad Beauty in Rochester Hills, Michigan. This initiative allows us to recycle aluminum waste locally, helping to keep tons of aluminum out of landfills and turn aluminum foils into a reusable resource. Did you know aluminum is infinitely recyclable? We'll be tracking the weight of the aluminum we collect over the coming years, so follow along with us at Happy Hair Design as we work together to reclaim our planet!
