Say hello to Kelsey McDaniel✨ — one of the talented hands behind the magic at Cobalt Blue Salon! We asked them 10 fun questions so you can get to know the person behind the chair a little better. From favorite hair tips to off-duty hobbies, scroll through to see what makes Kelsey a true gem in our salon family!

✨What are your hobbies/ what do you like to do outside of the salon?
•I love trying new food and coffee shops, catching up on the latest reality TV shows, shopping, and working out!

✨What inspired you to become a hairstylist?
•Ever since I was little, I’ve loved being a girly girl and playing with hair. When I had to undergo brain surgery, they had to cut part of my hair, which forced me to get creative with styling. The more I experimented, the more I fell in love with it. Realizing that I could turn that passion into a career brought me so much joy and now I get to do what I love every single day!

✨What’s your favorite service to perform and why?
•I love creating blonde looks , especially through highlights. It’s such a timeless, classic look that won’t go out of style.

✨What hair trend are you currently loving?
•I’m loving layers and movement right now, along with a subtle lowlight-and-highlight blend that gives dimension but stays low maintenance!

✨What’s one hair tip you think everyone should know?
•Apply dry shampoo before your hair gets oily—think of it as a preventative step, not just a quick fix!

✨What’s your favorite product in the salon?
•Color Fanatic! I’ve been hooked on it for years and it’s still my go-to!

✨What’s one hair myth you wish people would stop believing?
•That you should come to your color appointment with dirty hair. Clean hair is actually better for us to work with when doing highlights or color 😋

✨What’s a fun fact most people don’t know about you?
•I used to compete in country dancing!

✨Favorite food spot?
•✨Aba✨It never disappoints.

✨If you could do anyone’s hair (celebrity or not), who would it be?
•The one and only Taylor Allison Swift 🫶🏻

Say hello to Maggie Wachowski✨ — one of the talented hands behind the magic at Cobalt Blue Salon! We asked them 10 fun questions so you can get to know the person behind the chair a little better. From favorite hair tips to off-duty hobbies, scroll through to see what makes Maggie a true gem in our salon family!

✨What are your hobbies/what do you like to do outside of the salon?
•I love books that pull me into another world, sketching, painting, being outdoors, and spending time with my husband and son.

✨What inspired you to become a hairstylist?
•Creativity & connection have always driven me. I’ve loved art since I could hold a pencil, and now I get to use that passion to make others feel confident every day.

✨What’s your favorite service to perform and why?
•Fashion colors, extensions, & color corrections—I LIVE for transformations! Nothing like seeing someone’s face light up when they finally love what they see in the mirror.

✨What hair trend are you currently loving?
•Lived-in fashion colors, 70s curtain bangs, and bold pops of color. Placement isn’t just about trends, but creating something unique for you!

✨What’s one hair tip you think everyone should know?
•2 things: 1st, shampoo twice! Your scalp needs to be truly clean. 2nd, heat protection isn’t optional—it’s one of the simplest ways to keep hair strong and healthy long-term.

✨What’s your favorite product in the salon?
•K18 Airwash changed the game—it’s my go-to for extending wash days. I also swear by Lanza’s Silk Serum, I use it almost daily.

✨What’s one hair myth you wish people stopped believing?
•That air drying is “better.” Hair doesn’t like staying wet for hours—it weakens strands and irritates the scalp. Blow drying (with protection) supports a healthier scalp by lifting hair off and slowing oil buildup.

✨What’s a fun fact most people don’t know about you?
•I’ve been a nerd since I was 4. Love anime, play D&D, have 7 siblings, and have read over 6M words this year—so I’ve got book recs!

✨Favorite food spot?
•Kura Sushi! Dessert? Amy’s Ice Cream.

✨If you could do anyone’s hair (Celebrity or not) who would it be?
•Billie Eilish!

Say hello to Emily Pardon✨ — one of the talented hands behind the magic at Cobalt Blue Salon! We asked them 10 fun questions so you can get to know the person behind the chair a little better. From favorite hair tips to off-duty hobbies, scroll through to see what makes Emily a true gem in our salon family!

✨What are your hobbies/ what do you like to do outside of the salon?
•I love spending time with my fiancé and our 2 dogs, Sage and Gus. I also love a good tv show or movie.

✨What inspired you to become a hairstylist?
•I grew up in the industry, so I knew I wanted to become a stylist from a very young age.

✨What’s your favorite service to perform and why?
•Blonding. I’m blonde and have been basically my whole life so I get it when the client says they’re not blonde enough (even though they’re already SO blonde 🤣)

✨What hair trend are you currently loving?
•The blowout look! Not everyone’s hair can do it but I just love how classy it looks.

✨What’s one hair tip you think everyone should know?
•Putting oil on your ends at night, I recommend either L’anzas neem plant serum or Kerastase’s Elixir Ultime Oil. Especially if you aren’t washing your hair every night!

✨What’s your favorite product in the salon?
•The Kerastase Elixir Ultime Oil. It can be used in so many ways, helps to add shine and softness to the hair. It also has heat protection and can be used in wet or dry hair!

✨What’s one hair myth you wish people stopped believing?
•Dirty hair IS NOT better when getting your color done. It actually does the complete opposite and makes our job harder!

✨Favorite Food spot?
•Chuy’s. I could drink their creamy jalapeño dip

✨If you could do anyone’s hair (Celebrity or not) who would it be?
•Megan Moroney. I’m obsessed with her and her hair 🤣

✨What are your hobbies/ what do you like to do outside of the salon?
• I enjoy all mediums of art/crafting, watching classic horror/sci-fi, and spending time in nature with my family.

✨What inspired you to become a hairstylist?
•Watching my mother do my grandmother’s hair when I was younger really stuck with me. It wasn’t just a haircut, it was about love, care, and connection. I’ve always had a deep sense of empathy and a desire to help people feel seen and cared for.

✨What’s your favorite service to perform and why?
• Can’t go wrong with a classic highlight + tone but I do enjoy creating more “subculture” and vintage pinup looks since that’s what I personally enjoy.

✨What hair trend are you currently loving?
•Definitely the mod 60s vibe with shaggy mullets and Bardot bangs + framing. Color blocking with vivids is always a good time too.

✨What’s one hair tip you think everyone should know?
•Healthy hair starts from within! Get lots of protein, iron, good fats and stay hydrated!

✨What’s your favorite product in the salon?
•Lanza KHO is a staple in my daily routine. Lot’s of benefits and a little goes a long way.

✨What’s one hair myth you wish people stopped believing?
•Plucking grey hair makes more grow, absolutely not and plucking can damage your follicles.

✨What’s a fun fact most people don’t know about you?
•I can hold a tune 🎤 and I’ve seen Lord of the rings more times than anyone else ever. Period.

✨Favorite Food spot?
•Moreno’s BBQ and Elizabeth street

✨If you could do anyone’s hair (Celebrity or not) who would it be?
•Dita Von Teese, Cher, or Ru Paul (in drag obviously)

Say hello to Sara Preston✨— one of the talented hands behind the magic at Cobalt Blue Salon! We asked them 10 fun questions so you can get to know the person behind the chair a little better. From favorite hair tips to off-duty hobbies, scroll through to see what makes Sara a true gem in our salon family!

✨What are your hobbies/ what do you like to do outside of the salon?
•I love spending time with my husband & our dog, Biscuit. I’m always down to try new restaurants, hang w/ friends, travel, garden, and take Italian classes.

✨What inspired you to become a hairstylist?
•I’ve always been drawn to the creative side of beauty and the instant transformation that can happen with hair. It’s a mix of art, connection, and science which keeps it exciting. I love helping people feel like the best version of themselves.

✨What’s your favorite service to perform and why?
•Blonding & covering grey and lived-in looks. I love a good challenge and watching the shift in someone’s confidence when we bring their vision (or fix their hair trauma!) to life. It’s satisfying to my soul.

✨What hair trend are you currently loving?
•Soft, lived-in texture. Loving effortless layers, curtain bangs, and subtle dimension.

✨What’s one hair tip you think everyone should know?
•Stop skipping heat protectant. If you wouldn’t reach into an oven to grab something at 350°, why are you subjecting your hair to that?

✨What’s your favorite product in the salon?
•I’ve been obsessed with the Gloss Absolut line from Kerastase. It can literally give your hair a reflection it’s so glossy! Locks out frizz for 3+ days, & makes it incredibly soft and hydrated.

✨A hair myth you wish people stopped believing?
•That all silicones are bad.
Silicones get a bad rap, but truth is, they can *protect* your hair from heat, frizz, and breakage. The key is using the right type & washing properly to avoid buildup. Amodimethicone is your friend!

✨Fun fact most people don’t know about you?
•I lived in Italy for two years and am fluent in Italian

✨Fav food spot?
•Intero or Uchiko

✨If you could do anyone’s hair, who would it be?
•I would love to give Hagrid the most fabulous, bouncy blow dry of his life!

•I love working out and doing the stairmaster! Hanging with my kids and reading!! I love a good romance book!

✨What inspired you to become a hairstylist?
•All the bad haircuts I got as a kid,/ I appreciate and love how creative and expressive this career allows me to be!

✨What’s your favorite service to perform and why?
•I love doing balayages, lived in color, and fashion color!

✨What hair trend are you currently loving?
•I’m such a sucker for curtain bangs—they’re like the plot twist of a haircut! When they hit just right! Total game-changer.

✨What’s one hair tip you think everyone should know?
•Getting haircuts every 6-8 weeks helps your hair grow longer and healthier by preventing split ends and breakage, which can cause you to lose length and hinder overall growth.

✨What’s your favorite product in the salon?
•My favorite product would be the KHO Lanza oil

✨What’s one hair myth you wish people stopped believing?
