A Note From Our Founder
Hi, I’m Megan, I am the leader and founder of HairSmith and Co. The craft of hairdressing found me. I was sitting in a Psych class and a classmate asked if I wanted a job helping out at the front desk of a new salon on the weekends. Twenty-five years later, I am so glad I said, "sure, why not."
With over 20 years in the business, I’m now at a phase in my career in which mentorship is my biggest priority and joy. I love being able to support other stylists achieve their business goals.
How to apply….
Send an email to me, Megan, at meganhairsmith@gmail.com telling me a little bit about your experience, what you’re looking forward to in your next salon, and add a link to your social media page or website that includes photos of your work.
From there we will schedule a coffee chat. We’re excited to meet you!
