Our Team
Emiee
Studio Owner | Lashes, Brows & Spray TansHi, I’m Emiee, a licensed esthetician specializing in lashes, brows, spray tans, and PMU. I’m passionate about helping my clients feel confident, comfortable, and like the best version of themselves every time they leave my chair. Whether you’re coming in for a subtle glow or a full transformation, I focus on creating a personalized experience that enhances your natural beauty and fits your lifestyle.
Outside of the studio, I’m a busy mom of two and a wife, deeply rooted in family life (you’ll usually find me at the dirtbike track). I’m an Aquarius who loves the beach, true crime podcasts, and keeping things simple. Give me a crisp Coke or a yellow Red Bull and I’m happy. My favorite color is black, always.
Tyler
Body Waxer | Brazilian Speed Waxer Hey, I’m Tyler! I’m a licensed esthetician with over 12 years of experience, specializing in waxing for the past 10.
I’m passionate about creating a comfortable, efficient and ,dare I say, fun experience for my clients. I truly value building genuine connections with clients and creating a space where you feel completely at ease every time you walk in.
Whether you’re a first timer or a regular, my goal is to make every appointment feel easy, so you feel you very best.
Outside of waxing, I’m a wife and soon to be mama. I’m also a dog mom to Lily and Lugnut and will take any opportunity to talk about them. I enjoy traveling, getting lost in a good book and staying active.
In the summer you’ll find me soaking up all the sunshine at the lake.
Hannah
Hi loves, I’m Hannah. I’m a licensed nail artist specializing in Gel X, Builder Gel & Hard Gel. Focusing on creating sets that not only look amazing but support your natural nails.
Every set is made to match your aesthetic, because your nails should be as iconic as you are.
The vibe here is fun, chill, and low stress. Like a little therapy session where you can vent, laugh and just have a moment for yourself.
Outside the nail studio, I’m usually hanging out with my husband and our two pups, spending time with my friends and enjoying life!

My approach is elevated but effortless. I enhance your natural features in a way that fits your lifestyle, so you can feel put together without the extra work. Every appointment is customized because no two faces or routines are the same.

Megan
I’m a tattoo artist specializing in bold blackwork, fine line and realism. I have a deep appreciation for traditional tattoos. Ive been tattooing professionally for over two years, but art has been a constant in my for as long as I can remember.
Choosing to pursue tattooing wasn’t just a career move, it was something thats always felt like home. Having been immersed in tattoo culture since high school, I’ve grown to love not only the craft itself but the connection, storytelling and community that comes with it.
Originally from NC, I spent over eight years living in California, which helped me shape both my artistic perspective and personal journey.
I’m married to my best friend- known each other since 13- and together we are raising our daughter. When im not tattooing, you’ll usually find me outside, soaking up nature and recharging creatively.
My goal with every piece is to create something meaningful, lasting and uniquely tailored to each person who trust me with their skin.
