Rya Ehle Rya’s career in styling began at an early age in her hometown of Duluth, MN where her family owned three salons. Growing up around a salon environment she got to know the business and industry well. Rya attended the Aveda Institute in Minneapolis, MN where she received extensive training in color, styling, and hair cutting techniques. Rya has also had the opportunity to work on several photo shoots, videos, live shows, and web castings working as a hair, makeup and clothing stylist.   Erin Pruitt Erin began her career in the styling industry in her hometown of Battle Creek, Michigan. While working full time as a stylist and assistant, Erin took on extensive training in color, precision cutting, and styling techniques at the Aveda Institute in Lansing, Michigan. Over the past six years, she has mastered the art of delivering a broad range of styles to a very diverse clientele. Erin’s passion for the styling industry has lead her to work on photo shoots, fashion and runway shows, and theatrical productions as a hair and makeup artist.   Fatimah Hunter-Brown Fatimah caught the hair dressing “bug” as a child watching her mom and aunts get their hair done at the beauty salon in New York. It was no surprise that she decided to become a beauty professional, and start studying at the Aveda Institute of Atlanta. There she learned the basics of cutting, coloring and applying relaxers and perms. She started her career in Nashville, working under a well respected hair dresser and learned various cutting and coloring techniques that enabled her to become a strong stylist. For Fatimah education is key, which is why she attends advanced classes. Fatimah takes pride in having the ability to style all types of hair textures.   Susanah Lambert Susanah first took an interest in cutting and styling at an early age when she took the shears to her Barbie doll collection. While attending college for a degree in social work she decided to satisfy her desire for art and styling hair and changed course. She completed her cosmetology education from GCI where she specialized in color and cutting. She has continuing cutting education from "Tony and Guy" as well as color and cutting & make up education from AVEDA. In the past few years of her career she has done print work for Mercy Ministries, a nonprofit organization. Susanah loves fresh new ideas and enjoys keeping up with the latest trends. For that reason she takes her continuing education very seriously.   Sara Wilson Sara began her career in 2005 at the suggestion of a friend who was already in the business. These days, she lives by the mantra "Do something you love and you'll never work a day in your life". Her passion for hair has led her to the realization that education is everything. She began her training in Knoxville, TN at TN School of Beauty, a Pivot Point Training School. Since then, she has undergone rigorous training with Aveda continuing education, and even traveled to New York to study at the Toni & Guy Advanced Academy. Sara is also a certified Brazilian Blowout stylist.
