I graduated from Regency Beauty Institute in September 2011 and since then I have been working as a Salon Coordinator at Salon Intuitions, a salon that is exactly what I had been hoping to be a part of.  The clientele are wonderful friendly people and I am lucky to view the salon from a coordinator’s perspective before working and studying my way to become a Color Designer.  The amount of talent in each of Salon Intuitions’ stylists is absolutely motivational.  From them I see my possible potential and I am super excited!

I began my color education in January 2012 with Erin and soon I will become an Associate, where I will then accept clients on a part time basis.  I can’t tell you how fortunate I am to be learning from Erin.  She is an amazing educator and her passion shines through to her teaching style.  I will never forget the blessings I have been given here and the education I am receiving.  Salon Intuitions is such a highly respectable salon that I cannot wait to grow here with these guys and start taking clients of my own, so, please, keep me in mind!

After graduating, I moved to Austin to broaden my horizons. I absolutely love this city! Knowing that I made the right move, I thankfully found Salon Intuitions. This salon is the type of family I’ve always wanted to be a part of. The stylists here are awesome at what they do and they reassure me everyday that this is the right career for me.

I started here as a receptionist and, after a few months, started assisting a couple days a week. And now, I am being taking classes from Megan, whom not only is great at what she does, but is also a great instructor. After my apprenticeship ends at the end of this year, I will be on the floor as a Salon Intuitions stylist. It feels like a long way to go, but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Below are a small selection of our talented staffs’ creations!

Salon Intuitions’ Coiffed 2011 Flyer in PDF

by Samantha Breslow

The last time I had my hair cut there was snow on the ground; so needless to say, a haircut does not land high on my list of priorities.  However, I am aware of the significant impression a hairstyle makes, so I decided a new look would be an advantage when entering law school in the fall not to mention that being repeatedly compared to Thelma from “Scooby Doo” doesn’t help one’s self-image.  I went into my makeover with an open mind, and mostly just looking forward to a relaxing shampoo and scalp massage.
Before I even entered Salon Intuitions, located at the Triangle in Austin, I was impressed by the complex’s luscious landscaping and peaceful neighborhood ambiance.  As soon as I entered the salon, I was greeted and offered a complimentary glass of wine; refusing the free booze ended up being my only regret of the day.  The salon was pristinely decorated with a contemporary feel and it was free of the usual perm stink that fills a salon.  Customers can see their reflections in sleek, thin, ceiling-high mirrors that cleanly divide each workspace.
One of the owners and my stylist, Hailey Chau, made me feel comfortable instantly.  She assured me that she did not want to change my look, but rather enhance it.  Not afraid of change, I opted to trim the length for a fresh, shorter summer look.  As my hair began falling to the floor, my anxieties were assuaged when I learned Hailey had been styling hair for nine years and had been the proud owner of Salon Intuitions for the past two years.  After a discussion about Patty’s one-liners from “Millionaire Matchmaker,” the cut was almost complete.  I was pleased to see Hailey trim the weight off my do, and she was very keen to my preferences.  She was concerned with making the haircut match my lifestyle, and as I saw my sleek, finished look for the first time, I was completely satisfied with her innovation and attention to detail.
The final step, make-up, was the aspect of the makeover I most appreciated.  Preparing for happy hour, she gave me a smokey eye with gray and blue shades of eye shadow, mascara to elongate the lashes and eyeliner on my upper eyelashes.  The most educational part of the makeover was how she gave my eyebrows definition.  First giving them a quick and surprisingly painless pluck, she added definition by filling in the less prominent areas with brown eyeshadow.  Although I first thought an artificial brow would make me resemble RuPaul in drag, I was pleasantly surprised to see how the brows cleanly framed my face.  She finished off the look by applying concealer and a youthful pink lip gloss.
I won’t numb you with a transitional story about how an ugly duckling blossomed into a swan, but I can vouch that as I left the salon, I felt less like a tomboy and more like a confident law student, ready to conquer the field of law with a sassy haircut and a Hilary Clinton power suit.
