Claire Michalak

Meet Claire:

Claire grew up in downtown Chicago always knowing she wanted to be a hairstylist. She received her first mannequin head as a Christmas gift when she was seven years old. She always loved styling her friends’ hair when she was a little girl. Since then, Claire has pursued her passion for hair in Denver, Colorado, and has been in the salon industry for the past seven years. Immediately after graduating high school, she eagerly attended the Aveda Institute Denver. With hard work and love for the industry, Claire graduated at the top of her class and received high honors.

Claire specializes in blondes. Her favorite part about being a hair stylist is the ability to completely transform a person’s image in just a few hours, and help them feel just as beautiful on the outside as they are on the inside. Claire is inspired by the confidence she sees in people when they look at their reflection in the mirror. The cosmetology industry is fast-paced and always changing, which excites her because she is constantly learning something new. Claire is passionate about continuing her education by attending hair and beauty shows around the world. She assisted in teaching at the National Hair and Beauty congress in Dusseldorf, Germany. Claire is able to set herself apart from other stylists because she has a strong passion for hair and the ability that it gives her to use her creativity.
