VESTA

Vesta began her career as a hair designer in Atlanta, GA in 1986. Upon graduating with Pivot Point education, she continued to perfect her cut and color techniques with Scott Cole, Vidal Sasson. Vesta has interned with several well-known names in the industry and has attended many cut and color seminars across the country. She has worked in salons from Atlanta, GA to Beverly Hills with Horst's Aveda concepts, as well as crafting special effects hair and makeup on films and in theatre from Canada to Oregon.

Vesta’s interest in the health aspects of the beauty industry peaked after she went back to college in 1999 and worked in the medical field for 6 years. After her disappointment in the lack of preventative health in the healthcare industry, she began to investigate U.S. laws governing toxic chemicals in our everyday lives. To her dismay, she also found this lack of government oversight in the beauty care industry and began her mission to help educate both clients and stylists while returning to the creativity and joy she finds through hair design and working with her clients.

When Vesta is not behind the chair or helping the environmental organizations of Alaska, she enjoys getting fresh air outside in Homer, Alaska. Her dog Shiloh, is always by her side and supports her endeavors 100%, especially if food is involved.
