Hi, I'm Lauren!

Passion is the Foundation of Success.

With over 10 years in the beauty industry and nearly 5 years as a salon owner; I've seen firsthand how education and innovation can transform a business. My journey started at a vocational high school, where I had the incredible opportunity to begin my career early. From the very start, I was drawn to education—not just learning new skills but also the power of sharing knowledge. Inspired by the educators who shaped my path, I knew I wanted to give back to the industry in the same way.

​

For over five years, I’ve been immersed in advanced training with L’ANZA Haircare, refining my expertise and deepening my passion for education. More recently, I took a bold step and expanded my salon into a head spa, an addition that has DOUBLED our income—and now, I’m here to help other stylists do the same!

I founded The Courageous Stylist as a space for new and seasoned cosmetologists alike—a place to learn, grow, and build a thriving business with confidence. Whether you’re looking for inspiration, guidance, or a supportive community of like-minded stylists, you’re in the right place.

Let’s be courageous together!
