Maggie Morgan

Stylist, Color and Bridal Specialist

It is the need for a creative outlet which led to this career in 2003. Since then, I have been committed to exceptional customer service and advanced education. I attend multiple advanced education classes throughout the year to bring knowledge and inspiration to you.

I am a self-proclaimed introvert, and I enjoy the one on one conversations with every person who sits in my chair. I am focused on giving you an exceptional spa-like experience by incorporating a relaxing scalp massage with your shampoo.

I specialize in color, women's haircuts and wedding/special occasion styles. I am proud to use Aveda’s botanically-derived hair color. Organic sunflower, castor and jojoba oils in the color itself, leaves your hair shiny, healthy and vibrant. I also do a lot of balayage, or free hand hair painting, which provides low maintenance highlights.

I also work with a traveling wedding hair and makeup company in the Portland area, which keeps me very busy in the summertime.
