April Jackson,
Aloha! My name is April Jackson. I am a master-craft stylist with over 3 decades of experience. The first two decades of my career were spent training, working, and eventually owning my own salon in the Seattle, Washington area. It was there that I had the absolute honor and privilege of learning from who are now some of the “ Great Masters” of our beloved industry. I have studied over the years with different brands. My first lines were Matrix and Paul Mitchell, then on to Davines, Moroccan Oil, Redken, Pureology, and Color Proof. I was introduced to Alterna, Sunlights Balayage and most recently Keune color, and the Wilson Collective. In 2005, during my studies with the original Pureology, I started training with Phillip Wilson. He was Vidal Sassoon’s protégé for 25 years, and now the founder of Wilson Collective. He developed a method of compression haircutting that I immediately adopted and never looked back. Yes, I cut hair with 2 combs! Compression Cutting has allowed me to hone my craft in a very different way. I have never been one to think “inside the box” and I’ve defined my art with Fashion in mind, Function, and Integrity for all my guests. My passion for our craft began as a small child. I have had a pair of shears in my hand since I was 10 years old. Its an excellent and rewarding feeling to have the ability to create for, uplift and connect with people all in a days work. I abide by the phrase “love what you do, and do what you love” I recently moved to Nashville from Maui, Hawaii. My spare time interests include gardening, lots of house plants, and jewelry making. I also enjoy geology and going to a good gem and rock show! Of course, I’m a huge music lover, so I couldn’t have landed in a better place! I’m so incredibly excited to have landed at Ohana Hair Salon and look forward to creating nice hair for nice people. See you soon! Much Love and Aloha! – April |
