Meet The Team
Erica
Erica, has been in the beauty industry for over 20 years. In 2007, Erica embarked on an exciting journey by opening her first salon, Head Rush. After closing that chapter and starting a bridal business
she was driven by her desire to recreate the familial atmosphere of a salon and provide a nurturing environment for artists to flourish, Erica opened Wash Salon along with Jacqui & Richie(Bangz Salon). This venture allowed her embrace her role as a mentor and guide, helping stylists develop their careers in a non-competitive, warm, and fun environment.
Erica has attended color classes with renowned brands such as Goldwell, Wella, Redken, and Blacklight, ensuring they stay up-to-date with the latest trends and techniques. Additionally, Erica has honed her cutting skills through classes with esteemed stylists like Ruth Roche and KMS. Her expertise extends to updo styling, and she has acquired certifications in various hair extension methods, including Babe tape-in extensions, Habit hair extensions, and the most recent addition, Invisible bead extensions.
Whether you're seeking a transformative haircut, a stunning color, or expert advice, she will be happy to take care of you. One of her favorite parts is creating long lasting relationships with her clients, having many from her originally HR days!

Samantha
Sam is 21 years old and I’m fairly new to the industry. She started working at Wash in October of 2022 and graduated beauty school this past June 2024. She is currently an assistant and working her way up to eventually becoming a licensed hairstylist. Sam would like to master her skills at color, cutting and styling as well as getting her hair extension certification. Hair extensions have always been something she has been interested in, and it is something that she eventually wants to specialize in. So far she has taken a class with Goldwell and Redken for color, and a cutting class by Nick Arrojo at Arrojo Cosmetology School.
Sam's main goal is to have everyone that sits in her chair to look and feel better about themselves and overall leave our salon with confidence in their appearance.
