Paige, Colorist

Since joining Taglio Salon in 2007, I’ve built my career around connection, creativity, and ongoing education. With advanced training in the Wella color line and over 15 years of teaching within the salon, I’m deeply committed to both the craft of color and helping others grow in it.

I specialize in dimensional color—from sun-kissed blondes to rich brunettes, radiant redheads, and natural grey blending for all. Healthy hair is always the priority, and I love creating natural-looking results that bring out your best features while keeping the integrity of your hair intact.

One of the most rewarding parts of my work is the deep relationships I’ve built with clients over the years. I’ve walked through so much life with so many of them—and nothing means more than earning someone’s trust in the chair. Whether you’ve been with me for years or you’re brand new, you’ll be welcomed, heard, and taken care of. I believe in listening deeply, offering thoughtful suggestions, and making sure you leave feeling confident and seen.

Outside of the salon, you’ll find me doing yoga, hiking, paddle boarding, traveling, or hanging out with my two amazing daughters. Life is full, and I bring all of that energy and care into the work I do every day.
