Hi! i’m Ella, Owner of Salon Eight Ellaven. I’ve been a licensed cosmetologist since 2016 and have been in Charlotte since 2017! I love all things pink and girly but also grungy and edgy as well. You can find me sipping an Iced latte, with my two cats, or riding motorcycles with my friends. I dabble in almost everything hair wise but particularly love low maintenance dimensional color, men’s cuts, special occasion hair and some pink and purple peekaboos. I’ve dreamed of having my own salon since I started beauty school and I hope you will love my salon as much as I do!

Hi! I’m Ashley and I’m new to the Charlotte, NC area, originally from Massachusetts! I've had a passion for hair ever since I was a kid, and I’m so excited to experience this new city! I love lived in color, blonding and styling. I especially enjoy getting to know my clients and making them feel their best in my chair and outside of the salon. When not behind the chair you can find me with an espresso martini or a glass of sauvy b. I also enjoy visiting new local restaurants or a binge day of Vanderpump Rules. Come see me for all your hair needs- I can’t wait to meet you!

Hi! I’m Emma! I’ve been a licensed cosmetologist since July 2024. Even though I love everything hair, my favorites are razored and layered cuts. Shags, mullets, mod cuts, you name it! I also enjoy funky and dimensional color! When I’m not doing hair, I’m singing and dancing to my favorite songs, cuddling with my cats and dog, and hanging out with my friends. I’m also a coffee and tea fanatic! Ask me about my favorite drinks, my favorite songs, and my furchildren!

Hey y’all, I’m Alyssa! I’m from Indian Land, SC, and a recent beauty school grad ready to bring fresh energy to the chair! I specialize in all things blonding, from sun-kissed lived-in looks to bold, high-impact transformations. But don’t worry, my brunette babes are just as close to my heart. I love creating dimensional color that brings out your natural glow. My chair is a space where you can feel heard, hyped, and 100% yourself! When I’m not at the salon, you can probably find me on a run or trying a new coffee spot! Whether you’re ready for a subtle refresh or a total transformation, I’m here to make you feel confident and obsessed with your hair. Let’s create something beautiful together!

Hi! I’m Hannah and am a recent graduate from Aveda Arts! I’m born and raised outside of Charlotte, in Belmont. I’ve always dreamed of doing hair and my love for it continues to grow with every guest! I love all types of coloring including my higher and lower maintenance blondes. Whether you’re a bleach and tone or a super lived in blonde, I'll see you in my chair. Layered cuts are another favorite of mine, especially with hair on the longer side! When I’m not at the salon you’ll find me looking for a blueberry latte at a cute coffee shop, or curating own syrups at home. I’m usually found tanning by the pool, listening to Mac Miller, or hanging out with friends and family!
