In the world of beauty and self-care, finding a professional who understands the latest trends is essential. Today, we’re excited to introduce Kate, a talented stylist and lash technician whose passion for the industry shines through in her work. With her eye for detail and deep knowledge, Kate is building a loyal clientele that trusts her with all their beauty needs.
How Kate Got into the Industry
Kate's passion for the beauty industry started young. Always asking for makeup for birthdays and getting distracted in class by her own hair. Kate was her family and friends go-to for all their beauty needs. Whether it was a wedding or a daddy daughter dance, Kate found herself pampering others. It wasn't until her last few months in her senior year of highschool that she got back in-touch with those childhood roots and chose to go to cosmetology school over college.
A last minute decision became a life changing one. Her passion only grew as she was in beauty school, meeting so many others with similar dreams and ambition, Kate was inspired by the industry and the power it held for people. She graduated from Grand Rapids, Douglas J. Aveda Institute in July 2023.
Kate started with us at SHOW in August 2024. She has blossomed coming from a small-town salon to Downtown Grand Rapids. We're excited to see her continue to grow her clientele and as a stylist. Her specialties lie in balayage, clipper/short hair cuts, and lashes + spray tanning.
Outside the Salon
When she’s not busy in the salon, Kate enjoys all the things. Wherever Kate goes, a good time follows. Golfing and playing soccer are her most loved ways to stay active, as well as going on walks with her roommates. She spends lots of time with the people she loves. Lunch dates, playing games, shopping trips and crafting are some of her favorite ways to spend quality time with those around her.
Kate is a foodie at heart. She loves to cook with her boyfriend and try tons of new foods. Her chef skills come from her dad (though her mother is also a great cook). She always looks forward to the yummy meals when she gets to go home to her family in Battle Creek.
She grew up on a dairy farm, so working is in her genes. Even on her days off she dedicates time to working on her media and reaching out to clients or taking education classes. Kate works hard at her business and in turn we see many of her clients strutting out of the salon with confidence.
Favorite Things: Products and Services
In Kate's chair, you won't leave without learning about one of her favorite products. She shares a great relationship with our 'Surface Awaken', favoring the texture spray and thickening spray. Kate is also a big fan of our 'Sachajuan' root lifter for giving her clients that extra "bump" in their bouncy blowouts.
Some of her favorite product knowledge to share is with her curly guests. Kate has taken specific courses including a 'Surface Curls' cert. and a curly cutting cert. to ensure all her guests hair have the proper treatment.
Come see Kate if you want your dream hollywood hair, a sunkissed tan, or lashes to up your confidence another level.
