“I’m Kelsey Melissa, Owner and Master Stylist of Balayage Blonde in Santa Barbara, California.

Colorado raised, California rooted with over 10 years of experience in the industry. I created Balayage Blonde with the intention to enhance each clients’ natural beauty. Every appointment involves a customized technique and color tailored to each individual clients’ needs.

Over the years, my clientele has grown immensely and has been built mostly on referrals which I believe is truly a reflection of my work. I genuinely love what I do and the amazing people I get to connect with along the way. There is nothing better than seeing a client’s reaction to their new, refreshed look and the happiness and confidence they exude as they leave the salon ⏤ this is truly the driving force in my desire to constantly challenge myself and evolve my craft.

Whether your natural hair leans towards light or dark, warm or cool, my goal is to always deliver an effortless, beachy, California sun-kissed look. I look forward to meeting you and welcoming you into Balayage Blonde where all the ‘Good Vibes and Good Hair’ magic takes place.”
