MASTER STYLIST

Hey there, Alli! I’ve been a stylist for 9 years and absolutely live for all things color — think bright blondes, rich brunettes, and spicy coppers that turn heads. Whether you’re ready for a bold change or just want to refresh your glow, I’ve got you! When I’m not behind the chair, I’m deep in mom life with my four awesome kiddos — three wild boys and one tiny dancing queen. We’re usually on the go between football fields, dance studios, and soaking up the sunshine any chance we get.

MASTER STYLIST

Hi, I’m Riley! I’ve been in the hair industry for over 10 years and a Master Stylist at Elysian for the past two. I truly love everything about working behind the chair—from crafting precision cuts to creating effortlessly beautiful, lived-in color.

When I’m not in the salon, I’m traveling the country as a Brand Educator for L’ANZA, teaching and connecting with other stylists (fun fact: that’s actually how I found my way to Elysian!).

Outside of work, I’m married with two amazing teenagers, two dogs, and a cat. We love traveling as a family and doing all the classic Colorado things.

What I love most about this industry is meeting new people and helping them feel confident, seen, and absolutely amazing.

HAIR STYLIST

I’m McKennah, a hairstylist at Elysian Salon & Spa - Colorado Springs and a curly hair specialist with a passion for all things hair!

Having curly hair myself, I struggled to find stylists who truly understood my texture—so I made it my mission to learn everything I could. Now, with over five years of studying hair and two+ years behind the chair, I’ve helped hundreds of clients embrace and love their natural curls!

But my love for hair doesn’t stop there! I’m also passionate about blonding, brunettes, grey blending, and bold fashion colors—creating custom looks tailored to each client.

I’m also certified in I-tip and sew-in extensions, giving my guests more options for length, volume, and confidence! Education is a priority for me, and I continually take advanced training to ensure every client gets the best possible experience in my chair.

As a hairstylist my biggest goal is to hear you and your needs out to collaborate on your hair goals. I want my chair to be a relaxing and comfortable environment for everyone! When I’m not behind the chair, you’ll usually find me baking something sweet, getting lost in a good book, or snuggled up with my cats. I hope to see you soon!

Hi cuties!! My name's Megan & I've been behind the chair since 2022 specializing in lived-in colors, and mid/ long layered cuts; I love growing my skill set each year and being able to help educate my clients and cater to their specific hair needs! While I'm originally from Colorado Springs, I moved to Golden, Co after highschool which is where I started my career in cosmetology! In my free time you can catch me enjoying the outdoors with my daughter, making memories with my family or enjoying a good taco!

The best part of my job is asking, “How are you feeling today?” In a world that rarely slows down, this simple question creates space for you to pause, check in, and feel truly seen.

HAIR STYLIST

Hi! My name is Candice. I’m a Colorado Springs native. After being a SAHM for several years I decided to do something for me. So, I went to TIGI Hairdressing Academy in Colorado Springs and became a hairstylist.

I am so glad I did! I absolutely LOVE my job!!! I believe in breaking down the stigma around looking and acting “your age”. Life’s short, make it fun!

I really love it when a client comes in with an idea that is completely opposite of what they normally do and we run with it. Total transformations are my favorite!!!

My husband and I recently became empty nesters. It hasn’t been easy but we’ve found a way to make the best of it by RV’ng. So when I’m not at the salon we’re probably on the road. I would love to hear about your adventures too.

MASTER STYLIST

Hi there! I’m Sydney , and I’m so excited to share a little about myself with you. I’ve been passionately doing hair for 14 years, specializing in vivid colors, extensions, and color corrections. I absolutely love helping people express themselves through their hair!

Originally from San Diego, I moved back here in September 2023 with my fiancé, who I actually met here during high school. We’ve built a tiny house together (it’s a labor of love!) and moved it all the way here from San Diego. Before we made the move, I ran my own Sola Salon for 6 amazing years, and I’m thrilled to bring my expertise and passion for hair to this area.

When I'm not behind the chair, I spend my weekends as a horse wrangler – giving stunning ride tours through Garden of the Gods! I also enjoy juicing, and I make sure to carve out time to be with my friends and family. At home, my fiancé and I share our space with our two dogs and two cats. We look forward to purchasing land to park our tiny house and have horses of our own.

I can’t wait to meet you and help bring your hair dreams to life!
