Lauren Katalinich
Lauren has a strong passion for hair design and making people feel beautiful. Her career began with a 15 month apprenticeship under master cosmetologist and salon owner, Tonya Samples Kvapil. Tonya Says; “I knew right from the start Lauren was going to be a rock star for us, and was I ever right! Lauren has the skills and knowledge that is equal to designers with 15 years of experience beyond her. Sometimes, I just like to stand back and watch her work and find myself in awe of her natural talent and creative eye for everything beautiful. It is like watching a sculptor create a fine piece of art!” Lauren’s continual training with Aveda, Tigi and Goldwell has proven to be very effective in keeping her up to date with the most innovative techniques, not only in color, but in cutting and styling as well. Lauren is certified in Balmain Hair Extensions. With this certification, she enjoys not only transforming full heads of hair, but loves to introduce just a couple of brightly colored extension pieces to give young girls instant funky hair without creating a permanent change! Lauren also has a keen eye for the make-up arts. She can refine your look by offering the finishing touch to your new image with a make-up application. Lauren says, "There is no better way to complete a new look than with beautiful make-up to match!!!" My goal as a stylist is to give the best experience to each of  my clients every time I see them. "I always strive to create an environment in which my clients feel relaxed, comfortable, and above all, blown away by their look!"
Lauren happily resides in the Smyrna area with the sweetest angel of all, her no-tailed cat named Kitten!!!!
