Holly Schmidt

Owner, Creative Director, Master Designer

Hi! I absolutely love my industry. I have a passion, desire, and dedication to my craft, that never makes me feel like it’s a “job”. My passion, has allowed me to thankfully be successful in owning several salons through my 25+ years in this amazing exciting field.
I put my guest first, by not forgetting that my livelihood depends on them. I am forever grateful, thankful, and present while with my guests. I want to teach my clients how to do many different things with their hair, while sharing time with them behind the chair. I love that my regular guest allow me to be free creatively, to do whatever I feel is best for them. Their trust in me is humbling, and exciting to have a canvas to paint on...so to speak.
Wicked Scissors Salon was created differently, with a twist on the industry. I feel that bringing in the right stylist and investing in them along the way, is vital to success. I am thankful for them, as much as I am my own guests. You will see “starting @ pricing” with newer talent, ranging up to “master designer” pricing. That is because we will have new talent stylist who will be trained, and continuing their education with Wicked Scissors. This effort will not just be for hair, but in business as well. This will allow the new stylist’s to grow with their families and clients. I want the best for my new talent, and I will allow them to move and grow at their own speed, into commission, and eventually into their own boss as booth owners. I want to make a difference in others lives, and make an impact by investing in them. I want the detail in others to thrive behind the chair, so that the clients in the chair, all benefit from a great experience! This industry is constantly moving and changing, but i still believe it is powered by passion, desire, and dedication to your craft. Please follow us on social media, as we will be holding events monthly to bring all that excitement to you!❤️ I look forward to meeting you!

Hailey Schroeder

Salon Manager, Educational Director, Master Designer

I’ve always had a love for art. I took that love for art and turned it into a passion for hair in 2013. I’ve spent the past 5 years endlessly perfecting my craft. 

I went to Atlanta Georgia where I was able to be apart of the Candy Shaw academy for three days and learn French cutting! I also was blessed to join Candy Shaw in Ohio where I began my LOVE for balayage! I love challenges such as color corrections, color melting, and high lifts. So please bring your challenges to me! I believe that this is a career that will always keep you on your toes because Trends are always changing. This is what makes me love my craft even more. I’ll never stop growing , and my promise to you is I’ll never make you feel like you’re stuck in a rut.

Beth Marsh

Master Designer

I've been in the industry 10+ years. Multi dimensional Color and Curly girls are my favorites. I have been to Atlanta to the Jamison Shaw Academy getting certified in Balayage along with going to the DevaCurl Academy in NYC 3 times, getting Certified at their highest level. I believe in a thorough consultation before every service to get to know you, your needs, wants and lifestyle. That way I can make you feel the most confident, beautiful, BEST version of yourself, inside and out.

Ashley Eversole

Master Designer

My favorite thing about being a hairstylist is the opportunity to give my fine hair clients the hair they've always wanted! Finally hair isn't a chore.... it can be fun! 

 

"If you sit in my chair, plan to find a new passion for styling your hair even if your mornings sometimes feel like sheer chaos. I make gorgeous hair easy and achievable"

I became a hairstylist because I fell in love with the energy the salon I visited from the time I was a young age. I knew that I wanted the opportunity to have powerful, fun connections with women day after day and I've spent the last 13 years making that dream a reality.

 

I am fueled by my love of strawberry mocktails and workouts in the morning. When I'm not in the salon, I'm running my daughters to sports, shopping at local boutiques, planning our next  vacation,or just hanging around the house with my family.

 

Having fine hair myself, I found that it was hard to find stylists who knew how to create certain looks on fine hair. While I love balayage and am self -professed highlighting master, doing extensions are really my sweet spot and I'd love the opportunity to discuss taking your gorgeous locks to the next level.

I graduated PJ's Beauty College in Greenfield, Indiana as of December 2019. I have experience in cutting and styling hair on women, men, and children. Something about using my art and creativity to do hair since I was a child has driven me to continue my path to where I am today and where I'm going in the future. I love continuing my education to keep up with current practices and trends. My main goal is to communicate and connect with my clients to achieve their goals to make them feel their absolute best.
