Step into the world of dimensional color, balayage, and extensions, and you’ll meet the essence of our team – Lauren Montgomery, or as we lovingly call her, Lo.

Lauren’s roots trace back to Dalhart, TX. She moved to Amarillo for more opportunity and to raise her sweet and spunky little girl, Kendall. She navigates the delightful chaos of parenthood with a beautiful blend of love, laughter, and a touch of craziness!

Now, let’s dive into the fun quirks that make Lo, well, Lo. Picture this: a quirky obsession with fruit roll-ups and a love for those weird comedies that you secretly binge-watch. But one of her absolute favorite things? Gathering an arsenal of snacks for epic movie nights with her family – because who doesn’t love a good movie and munchies combo?

In Lauren’s world, there’s a strong connection with faith, and her favorite Bible verse, Philippians 4:13, encapsulates her belief: “I can do all things through Christ.” This mantra guides her through life and infuses every aspect of her work.

Lo’s passion – hair. It’s not just a job for Lo; it’s an art, a meticulous process where every detail matters. Her mantra? “If it’s not perfect, it’s not right.” That’s the level of dedication she brings to her craft.

Here’s what makes Lauren’s approach special: she doesn’t just see hair; she sees your hair dreams. It’s not about what she wants; it’s about understanding what you, as her guest, envision for your hair goals. Lauren strives to turn those visions into reality, leaving you with a smile that reflects the magic of her work.

For Lauren, the joy of this line of work comes from that radiant smile on her guests’ faces as they leave the salon. It’s not just about hair; it’s about creating moments of beauty that linger long after you’ve left the chair.

So, if you’re dreaming of that perfect lived-in color, balayage, or extensions that seamlessly blend with your style, Lauren Montgomery is here to make those dreams come true. Come, experience the magic, and let Lo weave her artistry into your world.
