ABOUT LAUREN (she/her)

Hi, I'm Lauren and I'm a hairstylist at Verde Salon.

What excites you the most about doing hair?

The thing that excites me the most about doing hair is being able to really hone my craft, and also every service is so different for each individual. I love being able to come to work every day and have kind of something different to do, a new person to meet, and being able to be a problem solver for people as well as being creative.

What are your favorite services and why?

My favorite services are color services, as well as haircuts. I've always really loved like a bright color and a big chop. And I love being able to really connect with my guests and personalize the haircut for them. So it really matches their lifestyle and they can express themselves with it.

What can your guests expect from you?

My guests can expect a listening ear as well as a very personalized service and a lot of attention to detail. I really like asking a lot of questions and feeling like I really understand the vision of the guest, so that the guest can feel really confident during the service, kind of reassured and like we're on the same page, so they can kind of just relax and sit back.

Why is Aveda important to you?

Aveda is important to me because of the mission and the values that they uphold. They're so dedicated to recycling so much of the products. Whether it comes to like the hair or the foils, as well as the kind of values they hold when it comes to like being supportive of the community whether it's like worldwide or even just within Winnipeg. As well as their values of like inclusivity and connection.

What do you like to do in your free time?

In my free time I like to read, do creative hobbies like drawing, crocheting, listening to music as well as connecting with friends and family.
