Stylists

Amy

I’ve happily been doing hair for 14 years and counting! My favorite is creating believable brunettes and sun-kissed blondes and I love working with natural curls!

Outside of the salon you can find me adventuring outdoors, or working on a creative project. Silversmithing is one of my true passions and I love dreaming up new designs!

Ashley

I have been a licensed hairstylist since 2009. I love doing traditional as well as lived-in highlights, grey coverage, precision bobs, and soft, blended layers.

Outside of work I love spending time with my family, doing puzzles, traveling, going out to restaurants, and watching movies.

Bri

I’ve been doing hair for 3 years and loving it! I especially love doing blonding services and men’s cuts. I’m passionate about creating looks that help my clients look and feel their best.

I was born and raised in Eugene and have always loved being outdoors. My favorite thing to do, when I’m not behind the chair, is camping with my family, rain or shine!

Jordan

I’ve been doing hair for 3 years! I get most excited to do anything blonding and really beautiful lived-in color. I really love seeing the transformation on my clients!

I lived in Seattle for 20 years and recently moved to Eugene in 2023 with my cat, Kevin. So far, we both love it here!

Lindsay

I studied at the Paul Mitchell School in San Diego and have been doing hair since 2008. I love doing all types of blonding services, fresh color, and soft, blended haircuts.

After more than 20 years I am back in Oregon and loving spending time with my family and my dog, Baylee, hiking, playing games, doing pilates, going to restaurants, and reading.

Camille

I have been doing hair since 2016 and I love it! Find me in the salon doing custom blondes and lived in balayages. I love doing anything bridal!

My favorite hobby is spending time with my family. We love to go to the Coast! A couple fun facts about me are that I’m a twin, we were born in Romania, and my favorite drink is an iced chai latte.

Joy

I have been a hairstylist for 20 years and still love what I do! I love doing long, boho hair, blowouts, highlighting with the perfect toner, and edgier styles. Grey Blending is also a favorite of mine. It’s important to me that clients know it doesn’t have to be “all color” or “all grey,” there are lots of options in between. Building relationships with my clients is really important and something that makes what I do the perfect job for me! I’ll never get tired of pics of pets, kids, or grandkids.

When I’m not doing hair I really enjoy hiking, listening to live music, and my guilty pleasure, watching old episodes of Judge Judy.

Lupe

I have been doing hair for over 20 years at Chikara. I have built up an amazing clientele, some who have been with me since the beginning! Even after all this time I still really love what I do.

Skin & Nail Specialists

Cassidy

I’ve been a licensed esthetician since 2005! I specialize in full-body waxing but love all things to do with skincare. I feel very lucky to have found a career I’m so passionate about even 20+ years later.

I have a very full life, outside of work, with my husband and 3 daughters. If you ever need to find me, I am most likely at a soccer field somewhere in the Pacific Northwest.

Catherine

I love to provide relaxing, rejuvenating treatments and long walks on the beach!

Corina

I’ve been a nail tech and esthetician for 23 years! I love custom blending gel polish colors with chrome, glitter, and cat eye gels whether it’s on the hands or feet. My absolute favorite service, however, is in the treatment room. Skincare is what I’m most passionate about! The importance of touch, relaxation, & allowing oneself to unwind should not be taken for granted. Along with my facials I like to include music as a form of therapy.

My other loves are my family, painting, live music, books & movies, and just over all connecting with people.

Mary

I have been a licensed Nail Technician since 2015. I have a background in massage therapy, which helps me focus on relaxation, comfort, and attentive care in every service I provide.

I was born and raised in Chicago and relocated to Oregon in 2008, where I found a deep appreciation for the region’s natural beauty and slower pace of life. Outside of the salon, I enjoy hiking, nature photography, cooking, and spending quality time with my husband and teenage son.

Emilie

I’ve been a licensed nail tech for 14 years! Since I can remember nails have always been a passion of mine. As a child, I was the kid who took polish to school to paint my friends’ nails at recess. I love working with natural nails and especially gel polish. I really enjoy the creativity that being a nail tech brings me!

When I’m not painting nails you’ll find me spending time with my two little kitties, crafting, and enjoying time with family and friends.

Massage Therapists

Cosmin

I was born in Romania, where I studied Physical Education and Massage Therapy. I moved to the US and in 2010 received my license to practice massage in Oregon from LCC. I am proficient in many forms of massage therapy and the structural understanding of the body stands at the foundation of all my techniques. I enjoy helping people reach their recovery/relaxation goals.

In my free time, I enjoy outdoor activities, dancing, martial arts, gardening/food, and traveling.

Kandice

I have been a licensed massage therapist since 2013. I practice multiple modalities and work intuitively combining techniques that allow treatments to be tailored to my clients’ needs. It’s important to me that clients leave with a feeling of relaxation & rejuvenation, but also knowing they’ve had work done that will make them feel better long after they leave the spa.

Mariza

I have been a massage therapist since 2016 and still love it! I attended the University of Alaska for pre-nursing and later continued on to Wisconsin pursuing midwifery after graduating from massage school here in Eugene. I specialize in pre and post-natal massage as well as working on athletes, having been one myself. It’s important to me to take note of each person’s needs and leave my clients feeling comfortable, relaxed and a little sleepy.
