Meet Your Stylist

Hi! I’m Monica. My close friends call me Mona! I’m from the beautiful beach town of Santa Barbara, California. I started my hair journey at Toni & Guy Hairdressing Academy in Los Angeles, CA in 2012. Then, I worked as a hairstylist at The Doves Salon in Los Angeles. After 10 years in Los Angeles, I made the move to NYC—from one big city to the next. While working at Muze Salon in New York, I joined the Wella Family and became a Wella brand educator. I worked alongside some of the best artists in the industry and mentored new season stylists at Shampoo Ave B in the East Village. 

My goal is to give my clients the top current trends as well as create my own unique styles. My number one concern is the health and integrity of my client’s hair and tailoring the cut, color and treatment to their needs. I am constantly improving and developing as an artist with advanced education at the Wella Studio, Toni & Guy, Redken and Arrojo.

You can count on me to provide an honest and thorough consultation on styles—looking at what is achievable and delivering results that will leave you looking and feeling like the best version of yourself.  I specialize in maintaining healthy double process blondes and rich brunettes with Foilyage, highlights, balayage, Color melts, vibrant colors, and styling current, edgy and classic haircuts. Your time is valuable to me and I aim to provide a safe space where relaxation comes easy. If you love to chat, I speak English and Spanish and enjoy getting to know my clients. If you don’t feel like chatting that day, there is no pressure at all—I will follow your lead.

I continuously post updates and last minute openings on Instagram, so please give me a follow! My books are open three months in advance and fill up quickly. You can always add yourself to my waitlist on Vagaro if you can’t find your ideal slot.

Currently I work full time behind the chair, in Williamsburg Brooklyn at my private studio. And once a month at Le Noble Studios, Lower East Side New York. Working with my clients is where my heart is. When I’m not styling hair, you can find me bike riding, boxing, working out, hiking, caring for my plants or hanging out with my husband and cats. Lucifer and Morticia. I’m looking forward to getting to know you! If you have any questions please email me at Monalahairvixen@gmail.com.
