Rachel started taking hair classes in 2013 and has been a licensed hairdresser since 2015. After spending a year assisting and doing hair on the side, she moved to Los Angeles, CA to further her education with a new foundation from the Toni & Guy Academy. There she studied directly under cutting master David Evans (National Creative Director) and award winning colorist Courtney Greenday.

In 2017, Rachel moved back to Virginia and accepted a job working behind the chair at a high end salon in north Stafford. By summer of 2018, she had transitioned into salon ownership by opening Bangs & Boujee Salon Studio where she took clients 4-6 days a week and traveled some weekends for weddings. In 2021 she expanded to a boutique storefront in the heart of downtown Fredericksburg. She now takes clients 4 days a week, trains her assistant 2 days a week, and runs all of the behind the scene operations that come with a full service salon and growing team!

Rachel’s continuing education includes hands on techniques and classes from Lisa Walker, Emmanuel Andrade, Victor Valverde, Mariah Cloke, Judith Viola, Nicole Higgins, Sarai Speer, and many others. She has graduated from the BBC Master boot camp class, is Brazilian Blowout Certified, Systeme Volume Extension Certified (currently not offering this service), hand tied extension certified, and a Halo Couture Extensions distributor. Her specialties include hand tied extensions, color corrections, and blonding services.

Julia started her cosmetology journey in the Fall of 2018, following her graduation from high school in her home state of Illinois. She has been a licensed hair stylist since February 2020. During her final year of cosmetology training she assisted at a boutique salon in Frankfort, Illinois where she later started her career behind the chair. Over the last 3 years, she has attended various classes with educators from Lanza, Eleven Color, and Patricia Nowakowski to further her education and skill set. One of these being the Grace Hand-Tied Extension class, where she became certified in hand tied extensions. She has always had a passion for hair but more specifically blonding services, lived-in color, and extensions. In her free time Julia frequents local coffee shops for an iced white mocha and loves a good target run. Julia moved to the Fredericksburg area in February 2022 with her husband and joined the Bangs & Boujee Salon team in shortly after settling in!

Jennifer started her cosmetology career in the Fall of 2017, after graduating from high school in her hometown of Staten Island, New York. She has been a licensed hair stylist since August of 2018. She started her first salon job assisting for a high end salon in Brooklyn, New York. In August of 2019, Jennifer moved to North Carolina with her husband and has been behind the chair ever since. Over the last 3 years, she has attended many educational classes taught by Aveda and Modern Salon educators to further her techniques. She enjoys all things hair, but especially blonding services, dimensional color, and vivids. In her free time, Jen loves to spend time with her 2 dogs and host pasta nights with her friends! Jennifer moved to Fredericksburg in 2022 and is so happy to be a part of the Bangs & Boujee Salon team!

Kaity has always had a passion for everything hair and makeup, so it only made sense for her to enroll in the Paul Mitchell School shortly after high school.

She started her first job immediately and has worked hard to progress in all things hair related. Her specialties include many forms of highlighting, cutting and styling. Kaity excels at communication and truly gains an understanding and trust with all her clients. She wants anyone who sits in her chair to feel listened to, at ease, and trusting they will leave looking radiant and feeling amazing! Some of the continuing education has earned her a Brazilian Blowout Certification, a Certified Makeup Artist, and is Certified in Lash Extensions as well Keratin Bond Extensions. Kaity grew up in a military family and has lived in many different homes over the years with her favorites including Oahu Hawaii and Monterey Bay California. A favorite day of Kaity’s would include listening to True Crime, watching dramatic shows with her boyfriend and, of course, giving lots of love to her cat Freya!
