Bio:With over a decade of expertise in the hair industry, Karissa brings a wealth of knowledge and creativity to every client. A proud 2015 graduate of the prestigious Gene Juarez Academy, she kick-started her career by assisting renowned Redken Artist Megan Gepner during an intensive one-year associate program. This invaluable experience ingrained in her a deep understanding of hair color chemistry and an arsenal of advanced techniques.
