Erin Powers

Rhea loves creating soft, lived in color and cuts for an easy grow out, working toward and maintaining healthy hair, and accentuating looks with many types of extensions. After graduating from beauty school in 2004, the first 17 years of Rhea’s career were in Washington state where she began perfecting these skills, although she continuously strives for more education.

She is a lover of nature and lives for finding the connection between it all- plants, animals, the stars and people. When she’s not outside, you might find her in a ballet class. And in another life, you might find her working in environmental science.
