La La Luxe announces another fabulous addition to our salon all the way from California! Welcome Stylist and Colorist, Emily Johnston
"My love of hair isn't just based in aesthetics but rather in the desire to make people feel good about themselves and their appearance."
As a young girl, Emily’s passion for theater led her to start doing hair and makeup for her school’s performances which paved the way to cosmetology school and her desire to create gorgeous hair. After graduating from the Redken Academy in Santa Clara, CA in 2008, Emily was an assistant to 3 master stylists in Santa Cruz where she learned even more of an advanced technique and skill which molded the foundation to her artistic approach to hair.
Emily’s experience in both hair and makeup artistry led her to work on sets for film, photo shoots and numerous television and infomercials in Los Angeles. Her hairstyles have graced the runways of the Big Sur Fashion Show, and the Santa Cruz Fashion Art Show. Emily has also styled hair for Santa Cruz Good Times Magazine for their fashion issue.
Emily continues her advanced education because she feels as though it keeps her creativity and craft on point. Her drive and passion for education led her to New York City where she trained at Bumble and Bumble and is now a Network Educator for them. Emily has an immense understanding of color, color-correction and color with an edge and can confidently say her specialty is color but doesn’t limit herself to just one area of expertise. She is also experienced in cutting, highlighting, flamboyage highlighting, blowouts and wedding/event styling.
