Taylor VanAernem

She/They
Stylist

Hey, I’m Taylor! I’m originally from upstate New York and have been doing hair for more than ten years. I actually started before graduating high school because I knew I wanted to help people express themselves through color and style.


Behind the chair, I’m all about individuality. Whether it’s bright vivids, rich reds, or soft blondes, I love creating color that feels intentional, wearable, and totally you. My guests know me for my calm energy, curiosity, and love for keeping things fun.


I’ve trained with Virtue’s curly cutting program, Sassoon’s advanced color course, and even worked backstage at New York Fashion Week. Education keeps me excited and inspired to keep evolving.


Here’s a fun fact: before returning to the industry hair, I ran a snake-breeding business for three years and had a pet tarantula. So yeah, I guess I’ve always loved unique transformations. This is a space where everyone is welcome, respected, and seen.
