Team

At La Luma, we work as a team on the salon floor. Each stylist collaborates and assists to provide the very best experience possible for you as a guest.

We have four different niches to serve you best:  Student, Apprentice, Stylist, and Master Stylist.  All of the stylists on our team provide a professional, high quality service that supports you in looking and feeling great. You choose which level matches your needs for time and budget, and we connect you with a stylist that will serve you and your style best.

You can choose to develop your relationship with your stylist by pre-booking future visits, or connect with another member of our team to try something new. Our mission is to give you the best experience possible, so you can look and feel great, and maintain your look every day in between appointments.
