For this week's team spotlight, we'd like to formally introduce our Coordinator, Lindsay✨

Lindsay joined our Strands Family in August of last year. She holds a Bachelor's Degree in Mass Media Marketing, and has worked in customer care for almost 20 years 👩🏻‍💻 After college, Lindsay spent over a decade as an Employee Benefits Account Executive in San Diego, before leaving the corporate insurance industry and relocating to Sacramento in 2022 🏡

As a passionate advocate for small businesses, Lindsay enjoys specializing in operational efficiency, conflict resolution, and strategic marketing. Her favorite part of working at Strands is connecting with her new community, supporting the team she's quickly grown to love, and helping deliver a positive, refreshing experience to clients every day 🥰 ...anndddd the obvious self-care work perks, of course! 💁🏻‍♀️

As far as Lindsay's concerned, she has "retired in her 30s" and is enjoying her “soft era" after exiting the corporate rat-race 😌 When she isn't buzzing around the salon, she's spending time with friends, family, and her rescue pup, Millie; she loves cooking, DIY household projects, nail art, and binge-watching True Crime 🤓🔪

Lindsay's portfolio isn't visual, so we’ve shared her professional mantra in lieu >>> "If you focus on success, you’ll have stress. But if you pursue excellence, success will be guaranteed.”- Deepak Chopra 🪷

Whether it's a sunny or a soggy day, take a quiet moment of pause with the relaxing aromatic experience of Aveda's Comforting Tea ✨☕️✨

🌱100% organic and non-caffeinated, this unique, signature tea blend greets you with a sweet yet subtle fragrance, followed by a delicious delivery of calming herbal extracts. Infused with the perfect pinch of licorice root and peppermint, this sugar-free tea is equally enjoyable hot or iced 🫖

Here at Strands, Aveda's Comforting Tea is always served as a complimentary beverage option with your visit. Be sure to give it a try next time you're in, and find tea bags and loose-leaf Comforting Tea available for purchase in our home & lifestyle retail section🪴

This week's Team Spotlight is taking focus on Allison 🌟

Allison began her cosmetology career 13 years ago in Yuba City. As a young adult, she up-rooted to Sacramento, and has been part of our Strands Fam ever since! 💕

Out of all the amazing things she can do with a mane, Allison most enjoys working with mid/long length hair, and specializes in (totally epic) color corrections for both natural and fashion-colored hair clients 🌈 Not happy with another salon's job, or an at-home job? Allison's got your back! ✊🏼 Whether she's performing a total rescue mission, or just giving you a fresh new look, she will get you where you want to be 🙌🏼 Her favorite part of her career is being able to help people look and feel their best, meeting new people regularly, and hearing everyone's amazing travel stories 🌎

When she's not behind the chair, Allison loves exploring other countries, paddle and snowboarding in the summers and winters, cooking delicious (seriously, DE-LI-CIOUS!!!) food, and adventuring around with her fur-baby, Cusco 🐾🦴
Allison's work >>> Highlights w/ shadow root, Fashion-color ombre, Natural color correction, Fashion-color ombre, Natural/fashion-color high/lowlights

Then, now, and always 💚🌱
“The strands are all there; to the memory, nothing is ever lost.” 🪢✨
— Eudora Welty

Our next Team Spotlight is shining on Candace 🌟

Candace has been doing hair for over a decade, beginning her career right here in Sacramento. Since 2012, she's built an impressive clientele that keeps her calendar booked for weeks in advance!🗓️❤️

Like all our talent here at Strands, we're far-stretched to find a hair task Candace can't do. Her specialities include natural, lived-in color by way of balayage and ombre styles with beautiful, melty shadow roots 🤤 she also enjoys the polarity of having mastered thick, long hairstyles, and super-short clipper cuts. Candace's favorite part of her career is the daily opportunity to serve the various and unique needs of others- every single day is different, which keeps life colorful and fun 💖🤗

When she's not behind the chair, Candace loves being in nature- camping, foraging, and paddle boarding are frequent favorites of hers
🏞️ She also dabbles in photography and meditation, and loves going on fun outings with her friends, like concerts, dancing, and group karaoke nights 💃🏻🕺🏽🪩
Candace's Work >>> highlights, baby lights, custom precision cut, lived-in color/balayage

This week we're shining the Team Spotlight on Veronica 💫

Veronica has served the Sacramento area as an Esthetician since 2008, having started her career in Citrus Heights 💆‍♀️

Of all her exquisite treatments, Veronica enjoys specializing in therapeutic facials, physical rejuvenation, and delivering her services with a relaxed-mind, meditative experience 🧘🏻‍♀️🧘Her favorite part of her career is being a true asset to her clients' wellness in a way that is noticeable and measurable, boosting their self-love and confidence, and the personal relationships she's built over the years 🪷✨

When Veronica is away from the spa, she loves spending her time hiking and paddle boarding; being in nature is what brings her the most joy! ⛰️🌊She also enjoys photography and gardening, and adventuring around with her precious kitty-kid, Winslow 🐈💕(who even has her own Instagram to document all her wonderful wandering!)
Veronica’s work >>> personalized facial treatments, waxing, stimulating face massage (all footage authorized by client/participant)

🌱When it comes to a daily skincare regimen, it's true that one size never fits all, but, what are the bare essentials for maintaining clean, healthy, happy skin? 😌

For beginners or those reignighting their skin care journey, we recommend starting with the "Cleanse, Treat, and Feed" approach, using our Aveda Botanical Kenetics skin care regimens 🌿✨

At minimum, it's imperative to wash and tone your face and décolleté every day (preferably in the evening), and moisturize two times a day (morning and evening). Did you know: washing more than once a day can actually be harmful to many skin-types, causing breakouts and discoloration! So, be sure you're talking to your esthetician about your home regimen AND frequency so that s/he can best advise you further 🤓

With Aveda's Botanical Kinetics skin care, we're able to cover all bases by providing a wide selection of cleansers and moisturizers, in addition to various treatments and serums to help you achieve your skin goals. More than anything, remember: consistency is the key to lasting results 🤩

Aveda Botanical Kinetics' recommended essentials are>>>

🧼*Cleanse* with BK's purifying gel cleanser: a gentle, plant-derived gel cleanser that foams away oil and impurities and helps normalize skin. (For normal to oily skin.)

🧴*Treat* with BK's toning mist: Come face to face with the benefits of nature as this cooling, refreshing mist helps hydrate and balance your skin, while helping dissolve surface oil. (For normal to oily skin.)

💦*Feed* with a BK moisturizer, like our hydrating water gel creme: Instantly hydrate and soothe skin, restore radiance, reduce the look of redness, and help strengthen skin’s protective barrier. Clinically tested, naturally-derived, vegan formula.

Next up, we're shining the Team Spotlight on Dominic ⭐️

The man, the myth, the masseur... If you've seen him once, you'll see him again-- nobody visits Dominic just one time! 🦹🏻‍♂️

Dominic has been serving Sacramento with his phenomenal Massage Therapy since 2014, and has built an impressive, loving clientele here in East Sacramento over the past decade 💚

Amongst his versatile menu of massage therapies, Dominic specializes in Craniosacral Therapy, Calming/Sleep Massage, and sports massage therapy, and also has extensive experience with Prenatal Massage💆 His favorite thing about his career is the opportunity to quite-literally help people leave feeling better than when they arrived, and to make a difference in their overall wellness, inner peace, and happiness 🌱🪷☀️

The Strands Family is also truly Dominic's family! He is Stylist Keri's other half and as a result, a beloved brother-in-law to Owner and Founder, Jacquie. His spare time is best spent with Keri and their two dogs, and enjoying gardening as a personal hobby. Fun fact: You know all the cute greenery we have around the salon? Dominic is our resident Green Thumb-- he leads the charge on keeping those babies alive! ✨🪴✨ (Which is such a relief for our new Coordinator, Lindsay, who is a self-proclaimed “hopeless plant-killer” 😬🥀)
Dominic’s work >>> Pretty, thriving plants at Strands (because 😇 …Having photos of you all on his massage table would be pretty weird 🙃)
