Chloe McKee

ABOUT
After graduating high school, I decided to further my education in cosmetology by attending the Aveda Institute. I graduated from the Aveda Institute in 2008 and started my career at Jon Charles Salon in Uptown and Wayzata. I worked at Jon Charles for three years then wanted to become an independent stylist, so I relocated to the hair district in Plymouth.

I specialize in haircuts, and I love doing blowouts! I worked with the famous hair stylist Oribe, and I was even lucky enough for him to do my hair! I thought it was one of the most inspirational moments of my life! I love to stay up to date with my fashion, so if you are in need of a new hair do or just want a fabulous blowdry for the weekend, I am perfect for you!
