Avery Dowler

Mentee

A relaxed, creative appointment can make even the smallest hair refresh feel special. I’m currently a mentee stylist, which means I’m learning, practicing, and preparing to be a full-time stylist with the support of the Prickly Pear team. During this stage, I offer select services that help guests feel refreshed while I continue building my technical skills and clientele behind the chair.

​

Right now, I love helping guests with services that support their routine and make their hair feel refreshed. That includes blowouts, treatment sessions, and select maintenance appointments that help your hair feel softer, healthier, and more manageable. As I continue growing behind the chair, I’m especially excited to learn more about vivid color, fashion colors, creative cuts, and all the ways hair can help people express who they are.

​

I graduated from the Aveda Institute in 2023, and I’ve always loved how hair can help someone feel more creative and confident. My own style has changed a lot over the years, so I understand how exciting, personal, and sometimes a little nerve-wracking it can feel to try something new. My goal is to make your visit feel easy, welcoming, and never intimidating.

​

What makes my approach different is that I’m not rushing the process. I’m focused on learning the right way, asking thoughtful questions, listening closely, and making sure guests feel taken care of from the beginning of their appointment to the end. As I continue preparing to be on the floor full time, I’m building the kind of foundation that supports beautiful hair, thoughtful creativity, and a calm guest experience.

​

Outside the salon, I’m usually working on one of my crafts, working out, or spending time outside when the weather is behaving itself. I love creative hobbies, cozy hobbies, and anything that lets me keep learning. For a low-pressure appointment with someone kind, creative, and excited to grow, I’d love to have you in my chair!
