I’m a hairstylist based in Los Angeles, CA and founder of @hairpainters. I’m originally from Palermo, Sicily, a small island off the coast of southern Italy. Growing up, I was always surrounded by art and Italian culture. This influenced my love for creativity and people, which led me to find my place in the hair industry.

When I first started in my career, blonding and corrective color was not only intimidating but my least favorite service. In time I began to understand the concepts of lightening. What was once a challenge became an obsession and something I’m truly passionate about.

I specialize in blondes and corrective color. I love creating bright, highly detailed, modern lived-in blondes in the healthiest way possible. As a blonde specialist, I continuously challenge myself to always improve and keep up with new techniques and better, more efficient ways to create and enhance blondes to their full potential.
