Lindsey- Senior Stylist & Educator

I am a senior stylist at both of our locations, and also one of the educators for our intern program here at C’zar. I have a strong passion for the work that I do and love that I can come to work every day not feeling as if it is “work.” I have been a stylist for 10 years, 5 ½ of those years I dedicated to teaching other aspiring stylists at the Aveda Institutes in Michigan and Chicago, and getting certified to teach salon professionals the ins and outs of our beautiful, artistic industry. I am always up for a challenge and I love working with all hair types. Thin, fine, thick, course, straight or curly, I enjoy working with it all while teaching my clients how to work with their hair instead of against it--simplifying life for them in the way I know best. I can not say that I prefer any one aspect of hair styling over another. Whether it is cutting, color, retexturizing services, or special occasion hair styling, I enjoy each one as much as the next and prefer to have that variation day by day. Delivering the best service to my guest from beginning to end and helping you achieve your desires and goals is what I strive for. I am very personable, love to listen to anything you have to share, and truly care about my guests and their happiness. Come on in and let me make your day. (Naperville and Bolingbrook)
