my approach
Hi I’m Katie - Your Hair Color Specialist
My passion is creating lived in, dimensional hair color. I love seamless, low maintenance colors that are easy for my guests to maintain, and keep the hair healthy and beautiful. I focus on dimensional foil work and grey blending rather than grey coverage. My style is soft, blended, and my hope is for your hair to grow out gracefully so you don’t feel like you have to get your hair done.
I work out of my private studio in Ballard where I love to create and connect with my clients. I am so grateful for the relationships I get to make every day while enhancing their natural beauty.
Kind Words
“Katie has been doing my color for years and she is so good at lived in blonde. She always makes it look natural, bright, and effortless. My color grows out so well and somehow still looks even better months later.
She is also just the best person and makes every appointment so fun! I always leave feeling so good about my hair. Highly recommend her if you want the best lived in blonde!”

“Katie is one of the best colorists I've ever worked with. I feel confident with my hair thanks to the work she does. Katie does a great job of truly listening to what her clients want and executing it to perfection.
As a natural dark brunette, it has been difficult to find a professional who can integrate blonde in a natural way that is complementary to me. I feel very fortunate to have found Katie, and I cannot thank her enough for providing such stellar services; it can be stressful and disheartening to find the right person to work on your hair, but I feel totally comfortable in her hands. Thanks, Katie!”

“I’ve been seeing Katie for almost ten years and even fly home to Seattle from San Francisco just to sit in her chair. That alone should tell you everything you need to know. :)
She has an extraordinary talent for lived-in blonde. Every six months I come back to her, and somehow the grow-out looks intentional the entire time between appointments. The color she builds is dimensional, natural, and low-maintenance in the best possible way.
After nearly a decade, she knows my hair better than I do. I trust her completely, and she has never once let me down. If you’re looking for someone who creates color that truly lives and breathes between appointments, and the perfect blonde, she’s the one.”

“Katie is absolutely magic! She has been my colorist for 6 years now and I wouldn’t dream of seeing anyone else. She has a fantastic eye for color and is always able to translate my inspo pics into the exact shade I’m looking for. Katie is also a lovely person to be around. She is kind, warm, and friendly and her studio is so comfortable and calming. I always look forward to my appointments with her and recommend her to everyone!”
-Chiara M.
“If you are looking for consistent, tasteful color, Katie is your girl! I have been seeing Katie for more than 6 years and trust her entirely with my hair. Katie has amazing taste which is reflected not only in her work but also in her studio salon and her personal style. On top of being amazing at what she does, she is such a sweet and kind person to pass the time with! Cannot recommend her enough!!”
