Stephanie Sykes

Hi, I’m Stephanie! I’ve been behind the chair for 20 years and have been part of the Adrift team for over two years. After all these years, I’m still just as passionate about this industry as I was on my very first day behind the chair.

​

Creating a welcoming, relaxed atmosphere where my clients can unwind and enjoy some time for themselves is so important to me. Whether you’re brand new to my chair or I’ve been doing your hair for years, my goal is always to give you a personalized, elevated experience and make sure you leave feeling confident and cared for.

​

I believe a great consultation is the foundation for great hair. I take the time to really understand what you’re looking for, talk honestly about what’s achievable, and create a game plan that works for both you and your hair. From a customized color palette to a precision haircut tailored to your texture, features, and lifestyle, every detail is intentional.

​

Some of my favorite services include grey coverage and blending, lived-in color, balayage, and Brazilian Blowouts—but if I had to choose one true favorite, it would be cutting. There’s nothing quite like a great haircut! I believe the right cut is the foundation for easy, everyday styling and, ultimately, more good hair days. ✂️ 

And I don’t want the good hair to end when you leave the salon. I love sharing tips and tricks throughout your blowout so you can recreate that fresh-from-the-salon feeling at home. There’s nothing better than hearing, “I love it!” while you’re still sitting in my chair.

​

As a mom of two boys, most of my time outside the salon is spent driving to and from a baseball field. I love being a baseball mom and wouldn’t trade it for anything! When I’m not at the ballpark, I’m usually spending time with my family, cooking, lounging with my dogs, or indulging in true crime podcasts and documentaries. Honestly, if I weren’t doing hair, I think I might have been a detective! 

​

Whether you’re looking for a complete transformation or simply want to maintain your signature look, I’d love to help make your hair goals a reality. And if you’re like me and have a little phone anxiety, no worries—you can easily book online!

​

I’m looking forward to meeting you in my chair for great hair, good conversation, and plenty of laughs. 🤍
