When I started in this industry I had a dream: to be a salon owner. I had no idea where my career was going to take me. But I realize now, many years later, that all my experiences have prepared me for this.

I learned patience and leadership skills from being a cosmetology instructor. I learned mentorship and management through leading instructors. I honed in on my presentation skills as a brand educator.

Most importantly, I learned how important client relationships are from being behind the chair. If you are an existing client, welcome to your new salon home; if you are a new client, I can’t wait to meet you!

Xoxo, Taylor

Hannah Kruse

Tier 1 Artist

Hannah started her career by assisting her cousin, who owned a salon for several years. This experience ignited her passion for the beauty industry. Between raising two children and working full-time, she committed herself to go to cosmetology school so that she could pursue her career as a hairstylist. Her school experience led her to believe that behind the chair was exactly where she was meant to be. Hannah has a unique ability to connect with people, and her dedication to consistently practicing her craft is admirable. Along her path she was introduced to Taylor, the owner of Bespoke, and quickly realized this was going to be her salon home where she could thrive. As she begins to cultivate her clientele she will be available on select days to take appointments, as well as being the salon protegé, making to most of every opportunity to learn and grow.

Marisol Beans

Tier 2 Artist

Marisol began her career in the beauty industry in 2004 and worked for about 2 years.  She decided to stay home and raise her son, taking small jobs here and there, but her passion for hair persisted.  She got back into the salon in 2018 and is so happy she did!  Once acclimated back into salon life, she rose quickly up the ranks.  She takes education seriously and has taken many classes with some of the best-known stylists in the country.  Always following what’s on trend, Marisol takes classes to achieve the most requested styles from clients.  Some of her favorites are natural beachy lived-in looks and modern 1990’s styles that are making a comeback.  Marisol is proficient in cutting hair of all lengths, utilizing many different techniques, whether it be precision, razor, or dry cutting. 

Lexi Shumaker

Salon Protegé

Although Lexi is new to our team, she is not new to the industry. Lexi grew up in salons her whole life, watching her mom as a successful stylist. She wanted to create a path of her own, but she knew at a pretty young age this industry is where she was supposed to be. Her desire and ability to make people fall in love with themselves truly shows behind the chair. She loves to create a connection with each and every one of her clients. Lexi attended the Aveda Institute in Washington DC for 6 months until she decided it was time to slow down and spend some time with her husband and son. So she joined the apprenticeship program and has been growing ever since. She is finishing up her apprenticeship and preparing to take her state board exam, while under the tutelage of Taylor and the artistic team.
