Nicole Expert Stylist
5 years experience in the Snohomish county area.
I have a ton of passion and creativity that I thankfully get to use to inspire confidence and beauty in my clients. I enjoy doing colors, foils, Balayage, extensions, updos, and perms. My favorite part of any service is the consultation. I like creating a comfort zone of communication between my client and myself, and watching our vision come to life. I do most of my hair cuts dry; I prefer to see how the hair texture is while dry. I also do curly hair this way so I know the end result will be a controlled cut. I love learning knew techniques and urge all my clients after their 3rd or 4th appointment to try a different color or cut. I love Salon Dolche for the education they offer their stylist, and in turn, keeping our clients fashion forward. Some of the new techniques I have learned and really enjoy doing are Balayage and extensions. I like to offer the Balayage service to clients who like less grow out and are looking for a more natural look. Extensions are awesome for people who are looking to thicken their hair, or get through that rough part of growing their hair out. I love the achievement of the final look. I feel validated and appreciated when I get the glow of my client through the mirror.
Outside of work, I am married, have 2 children and pets. We enjoy walks, soccer, reading, and going to the gym.
I look forward to meeting new people, and think the best compliment I can get is through referrals.

As a true southern gal originally from the southeast, my passion for the beauty industry began when I was a child. I would watch the women in my family practice their beauty rituals every night and stare at my mom in admiration as she applied lipstick perfectly. I fell in love with makeup early on, as I would get into trouble playing with not only hers, but my grandmothers as well. It was always a special surprise when Babere (my nickname for my grandmother) would give me her free gift bag whenever she would visit the cosmetic counter. I later went off to a fine arts college where I majored in painting and learned all about color theory. My passion for skin care started when I got my first facial. I thought, I need to do this! I also knew I would be able to combine my therapeutic massage skills, fine arts background, and love of makeup along with it. I graduated from the Gary Manuel Aveda Institute in May 2009. On the side, I'm an artist and a certified equine shiatsu massage therapist. I enjoy spending time with my husband and our two four-legged feline sons.
