Meet Amanda

My hope is that everyone who walks in the door feels like they are in a place that pays attention to detail. The beautiful nature-inspired environment puts people at ease, and gets them into the vibe that it's time for relaxation and pampering. LA can be hectic at times. We crave the ability to escape and feel like we have been transported to a little desert retreat. 

With me, it all begins with setting intentions and establishing a clear hair history while considering style, routine, maintenance level, and budget to deliver beautiful results that fit each client’s lifestyle.

Balayage is my specialty. Seeing my clients leave with dimensional, healthy hair is my passion, both subtly sun-kissed or boldly bright.  

I also specialize in dry hair cutting for beautiful lived-in looks to create natural, effortless texture that is beautiful when styled or simply air-dried.  

I enjoy short cuts. Everything from controlling longer, shaggy looks to tight, well-groomed fades and tapers.

I love having the creative freedom to integrate my intuitive hairdressing techniques with every client to bring their self care to a whole new level. I am so excited to share my gifts at Cactus Moon LA and look forward to seeing you in my chair.

I have been doing hair for over ten years. I was fortunate enough to be trained by the best in the industry, from being an assistant to being behind the chair. Previous salon experience include: Sally Hershberger Salon, The Well, and The Hive.
