Salon Owner & Lead Stylist
I began my hairstyling career as an assistant at The Hair Department, eventually taking a position behind the chair. Concurrently, I worked with M.A.C. Cosmetics, where I earned my Product Specialist Certification and contributed to teaching new trends to my team. My time at M.A.C. also included participating in counter events at other stores. Ultimately, I chose to dedicate my full attention to building my salon clientele and left M.A.C.
In the salon, I expanded my services by becoming an Xtreme Lashes Certified Stylist. I was drawn to Xtreme Lashes® for their commitment to safety and quality. After years of refining my skills, I advanced to the Omni Volume™ technique, elevating my lash extension expertise.
After six years at The Hair Department, I opened my studio in December 2019. I've now been thriving in my space for four years, cherishing every moment. I prioritize continuous education, aiming to attend at least two classes yearly. The beauty industry is ever-evolving, staying educated keeps me inspired and innovative behind the chair.
Jelena is awesome! She is super friendly and easy to talk to. I love her studio! It is peaceful and relaxing. She always gives me the outcome I am looking for when she does my hair. She does a phenomenal job at wedding makeup and updos! I couldn’t have asked for anyone better to do my bridal hair and makeup. I will always recommend her to everyone for all their hair needs!
