She / Her

Also known as "Ches", Chelsey is almost 10 years into this craft, despite having a few spinal surgeries under her belt. With her pup George by her chair side, she loves painting a balayage finished with a bangin' blowout, but is truly inspired by edgy/weird/out of the box haircuts. Ches has had various education sessions with brands like Oribe and Bumble & bumble, has had hair + makeup work published in print by Auxiliary Magazine, and has also been posted on American Salon's social platforms. It seems everyone in Buffalo (and beyond) knows Ches. Even Buffalo Spree named her as a Taste Maker in 2016. Her dream is to never stop learning, and to take her talents around the world, doing hair + makeup for a touring band.

Chelsey has the most contagious laugh, and you’ll always find her out exploring our lovely city. Bike rides with herr fiancée Ben, a good read in the park, or dreaming up crown’s next big plan- she’s not slowin down any time soon!
