Leah Ambrose Ingalls
Founder- Master Stylist, Grey Blending, Lived-In Dimensional Color and Blonde Specialist, Certified Extension Artist
I am a passionate and creative hairstylist with over 27 years experience behind the chair, and a salon owner for over 21 years. I am a color specialist with a love for gray blending, and all dimensional coloring services. I would consider myself a classic hairstylist with a deep appreciation for natural timeless beauty. Curly girls and bobs are some of my favorite precision haircuts. My approach is all about personalization, I love to create amazing hair specifically tailored to each of my guests. When I'm not in the salon you can find me spending time with my family, admiring the beauty of my flower gardens, or rummaging through antique and salvage stores.

Antonia Lilly
Luxe Studio Independant Eyelash Technician, Permanent Makeup Artist
I have found a love in empowering women and making them feel amazing about themselves! I started in this field and got my Esthetics license in 2013. I immediately fell in love with the beauty industry. However, the longer I was in the industry the more I realized how much I truly get to help women not only feel confident and beautiful on the outside, but I get to help them on the inside too. The bond I create with each client is unique to the individual and it is what makes me love what I do so much. Not only do I want my clients to leave happy with their service, I want them to feel like they deserve to pamper themselves and they were able to do it with someone they can connect with and confide in or even just laugh with. Every one of my clients means something so special to me and I have such a unique relationship with every single one. I have also always had a love for art and fine detail, which all in combination makes me perfect at what I do.
