Meet Ashieka
I have been a Hair Stylist for over 11 years. I have a love and passion for the art of styling hair. For as long as I can remember I have had my hands in someone's hair. During my "I really don't know what I'm doing" years, my family was kind enough or some may say crazy enough to be my "guinea pigs".
As my ability to do hair increased I felt it was time for me to get some real experience. Pat Hamel, owner of Movements Hair Salon in Oak Park, IL hired me as an assistant. While there, I worked with 5 hair stylists and after 1 year, gained the motivation I needed to enroll in hair school. Upon graduating in 1998, it was time for me to chose a salon and build my own clientele. In 2005, I ventured out and opened my very own salon, Honeycomb Hair Studio. It was a joy to have my very own location where I could set the atmosphere with music, candles and good conversations. My clients were able to come and relax for a short time, without worrying about spending their whole day with me.
However, in 2009, I closed the doors to Honeycomb to focus on being a wife to my husband, Garreth and our 3 children. This was a very bitter sweet moment in my hair styling career but I knew that it was time for me to put down the curling irons and scissors and focus on my family.
It's now 2011 and "I AM BACK"!!I am picking up where I left off starting this summer. Join me in my big comeback...I look forward to seeing you in my chair!**
