THE STYLISTS

 

Lacy Messinger - Salon Owner

Balayage, Beaded Row and Fusion Extensions, On-location Wedding Hair

I have been passionate about the beauty and hair world since I was a little girl.  That dream became reality in 2004, when I started cosmetology school.  In my time working at one of the prestigious Jacques Dessange salons, I fell in love with both the world of french hairdressing (balayage in particular) and product knowledge.  It was then that I started to truly understand the power of educating yourself, being prescriptive when choosing products, and the importance of healthy hair.  Since then, I have studied all facets of hair, traveling from the east to the west coast for education.  I am a L’Oreal Certified Balayage Expert, taken multiple razor cutting workshops with Bumble & Bumble, studied runway and red carpet looks with Kerastase and taken a braiding workshop with Heather Chapman to name a few.  I most currently have become a Certified Bellami Extension Artist and am certified in tape-in, fusion, I-tip, and beaded row extensions. We can choose one type or customize and do a hybrid of a few different types!

These days you can find me rocking out some balayage in my salon, researching and developing new product ideas, and spending time with my amazing five year old bubba.

Best,
Lacy Messinger, Owner/Founder

Balayage, Lived-in Haircolor, Beaded Weft Extensions

I feel so lucky to be in this amazing industry. Everyday I get the opportunity to be creative and express my artistic side. For me it’s all about making friends and getting inspired!
I specialize in lived-in hair color and balayage. I am certified in various types of hair extensions including Fusion, Flat Tape, and Beaded Weft Extensions. I custom blend to match your own hair perfectly. Check out my gallery.
Let me tell you a little bit about my journey. For the first 15+ years I worked in the Pittsburgh area. I was lucky enough to be part of the Redken team and was a platform artist. I attended most of my training in New York City at the L’Oreal academy.
I moved to Colorado in 2009 and I love it! I spent the first 10 years working in beautiful Boulder, CO and was part of the Sidedoor Salon team. I am now located in Rino /Five Points area in Denver at Trademarc Salon.
💫 When I’m not in the salon, you can find me working out. Either at core power yoga or running at the park.
💫 I enjoy football, going to brunch or happy hour with friends or just relaxing with my fur baby.
💫 My hobbies include cooking, painting, and my new obsession: plants!
💫 I can’t wait to have you as a guest in my chair!
