Trish Dawson

Assistant Manager + Stylist + Makeup Artist

With nearly 14 years of experience, Trish sees hairstyling as more than just a career—it’s a calling. Trained at Fayetteville Technical Community College (FTCC), her journey has been shaped by a wide range of loyal clients, each one leaving a meaningful impression on her path as a stylist. To Trish, every client is notable and deserves genuine care, attention, and respect.

Trish specializes in color, precision cutting (especially short styles), and curly hair, but she also enjoys crafting the perfect updo or delivering a luxurious shampoo and blowout—always with an unhurried, relaxing head massage. She understands how powerful the combination of touch, presence, and attentive service can be, and she aims to make every visit a moment of calm and comfort. Even children’s haircuts are welcome in her chair, where patience and understanding are part of the experience.

While her personal style shifts with the seasons, Trish’s approach to hair remains consistent: meet clients where they are, listen deeply, and collaborate to create a style that reflects who they are and how they want to feel. She believes in the transformative power of hair—not just in how it looks, but in how it empowers. Though she once considered a career in holistic healing, she realized that her true purpose is right behind the chair—offering both beauty and meaningful connection through her work.

Trish finds daily inspiration in her clients and the collaborative energy they bring. Whether someone arrives with a photo or just an idea, Trish helps them shape it into something uniquely theirs. Her chair is a space where no one feels rushed, dismissed, or unseen. She prioritizes communication and honesty, asking thoughtful questions, offering expert guidance, and being transparent if a certain look isn’t right—always with compassion and creativity.

When she’s not behind the chair, Trish enjoys embroidery, gardening, reading, holistic wellness, traveling, and most of all, being a proud Memaw.

New clients are encouraged to bring their ideas and inspiration—Trish will bring the artistry, insight, and kindness to help them leave feeling confident, seen, and beautiful.

At the heart of Trish’s work is more than just great hair—it’s the belief that everyone deserves to feel at home, valued, and cared for. In her chair, you’ll always find a forever friend.
