What do you do at Reflektion?

At Reflektion, I’m a stylist dedicated to creating hair that feels as good as it looks. I specialize in lived-in color, soft layers, and transformative styles that bring harmony between how you feel and how you show up in the world. My chair is a space where self-care meets creativity, and I love helping clients express themselves in a way that feels natural and elevated.

I keep the energy light and welcoming—you can always expect a few laughs along the way while I make sure everyone feels comfortable, cared for, and right at home.

How long have you been doing this?

Hair has been part of my world for as long as I can remember. I grew up in my mom’s salons, surrounded by creativity and connection, which naturally shaped my love for the industry. In high school, I was drawn to costuming and styling, and not long after, I was the go-to friend for late-night hair transformations in bathroom mirrors.

That passion eventually led me to Aveda school in Chicago, where I refined my skills and deepened my approach to hair as both an art and a form of self-expression. Today, I continue to build on that foundation behind the chair, bringing both experience and intention to every client I work with.

What’s your approach to beauty?

My approach to beauty is all about ease and authenticity. I believe looking your best shouldn’t be stressful — it should feel like an act of self-care. We all carry an image of our best selves in our minds, and my goal is to help bring that vision to life in a way that feels natural and empowering. I love helping clients align how they look on the outside with how they feel on the inside — confident, grounded, and completely themselves.

What are you into outside the salon?

Outside of Reflektion, I love soaking in city life — long walks, spontaneous art projects, and the occasional thrift-store victory. I’m a proud cat parent, serial dog-petter, and believer that fitness should be fun, which is why I trade gym time for bouldering sessions whenever I can.

Fun facts?

I’m known to be a bit of a chatterbox, and I’m slightly obsessed with the Tomato Mozzarella Salad from Trader Joe’s — it’s my go-to lunch at least three times a week.

  • If I could give more stars I would! Ema did such a fantastic job with my hair & had me leaving the salon feeling gorgeous! Shocked that she’s considered a level 2 associate, her talent is definitely above that! Not only did she take the time to do a proper consultation but she has an amazing personality to match. Can’t wait for my next cut with her!

  • Ema is an amazing stylist! She has been cutting and coloring my hair since June and I couldn't be happier! With this last visit, we decided to try baby lights and the result is so natural and beautiful. So happy I found her!
