Paul

Hi! I am the general manager at Impressions. You will definitely find me greeting you as you walk in the front door. I have worked at the salon for 16 years. Fun fact, I was first a hairdresser and then fell in love with the business side of the salon. I am married to my wonderful husband and we have 3 dogs that we love like children. On my free time you can catch me watching Real Housewives, reading and listening to the podcast My Favorite Murder.

Ali

Nail Tech

Hiiii! I’m Ali and I started my nail career here at Impressions 20ish years ago while going to grad school. I tried the corporate gig, but truly missed the salon and the Impressions family… so I came back home. As part of the leadership team, I look forward to growing new talent, adding new services (though what don’t we offer?!), and increasing our community engagement/outreach. My favorite services to provide are UV hard-gel nails and pedicures because I love to see a fun transformation. I truly enjoy meeting new people and learning all about what makes them tick. 

I live in lovely Bay View with my crazy dog Daisy. I’m the FAVORITE auntie of 4. Travel, live music, wine, and relaxing at my family’s lake house up north are some of my favorite things. Say hi!

Sarah Taylor

Level: [8]

Owner of the salon. My favorite thing to do is teach our new talent how to fix a haircut or color for a client. After all these years, it means the most to me to see the smile on someone’s face when they love their hair. I am nationally certified in haircutting and color through Redken. My husband Chris works in marketing and my two boys (Liam and Dylan) keep me super busy. When I am not at the salon you can usually find me on a soccer field or basketball court. I absolutely love dogs, Netflix, babies and shopping. Sarah is currently not able to take new guests at this time, but is always willing to give a referral to one of our other amazing stylists.

 

Madison

Level: [8]

Hi. I am Madison. I have worked at Impressions since 2004, and I sometimes can’t believe it’s been that long. I am nationally certified in Redken color and specialize in dimensional foil work and grey formulation. I only work part time behind the chair, since having my boys over 9 years ago. I absolutely love the balance I have between being a great hairstylist and a great mom.

When you sit in my chair, you can expect a great conversation, lots of laughs, and to walk out feeling amazing.

I work side by side with an associate as I help grow our new stylists. What that means for you is that you get double the attention! I think its a win win for all involved.
When I am not working behind the chair you will find me at home working behind the scenes of business. Did I mention I love a good spreadsheet?

In my free time you can find me streaming tv shows, enjoying a glass of red wine, re-decorating my house, and loving up on my 2 boys (Jacoby & Jaxson) and my husband Joe.

I look forward to meeting you!

Mandy

Level: [8]

Hello there! I'm Mandy, and I've been a member of the Impressions team since 2011. I initially began my journey as a receptionist at the front desk. After a few cross-country adventures and earning a cosmetology license, I returned to Impressions in 2014 as a stylist.

I have been told that the experience in my chair is akin to a mullet - a perfect mix of business and fun. I enjoy transforming clients' hair into their dream styles while ensuring they have an enjoyable experience. Whether you want to chat about trash TV shows and murder podcasts, gossip about your second cousin's dubious dating choices, or simply enjoy a quiet, kid-free relaxation time, I'm here for you.

My favorite services to perform include lived-in colors, men's cuts, and specialty styles. I am proud to be nationally certified through Redken, specializing in both color and cutting. As Impressions' Director of Education, you might see me working with one to three associates at any time. I genuinely enjoy fostering the next generation of stylists and collaborating as a team to serve you. Plus, who could resist a Beyoncé moment with two people blow-drying their hair?

When I'm not at work, you can find me spending quality time with my two adorable children, Clark and Frannie, or enjoying a round of golf with my husband and high school sweetheart, Andy. I'm always available for a complimentary consultation to see if we're a good fit!

  • Carol

    LEVEL (5)

    Some artists choose oils and canvas, watercolors, clay or photography to showcase their talent. I have chosen human hair. My entire career has been here at Impressions I have enjoyed every minute of it. From start to finish with each client my ultimate goal is to make you feel special. In this journey as a stylist, I have been lucky enough to hone in my creative skills and meet truly fantastic people. When you look good you feel good. That is what makes me happy, as well as, long walks, cozy fires and a really good book.

At the end of each service, I love teaching my clients how to style their own hair. From embracing your natural curls, using a hot tool, or a quick pinned easy updo- my goal is for you to walk out feeling inspired, cute and trendy! I have had the privilege of being “the glam squad” for countless weddings, proms, etc and it brings me so much joy. I genuinely love the beauty industry and empowering women. My chair is always a safe space to laugh, cry or anything in between. My clients are like family, with that I will always give them my best efforts and honest opinions.

When it comes to hair, creating lived-in looks by blonding & adding dimension is my favorite thing to do, but there’s something about bringing someone to the dark side that I’m kinda obsessed with! Another specialty of mine is the Keratin Complex smoothing treatment… its life changing. Last but certainly not least, sending you home with a customized product regimen & knowledge on how to care for your hair makes me so happy! When I’m not at the salon you can probably find me at the gym. Boxing and strength training are some of my favorite things to do! A few other hobbies include: hiking, baking, shopping online and lovin’ on animals! And that’s the tea.

    P.S. Always accepting new friends to come hang in my chair! XX
