Michelle - Naples Hair Stylist & Special Event Hair Expert at Salon Mulberry

Distinguished as the graduation speaker for her cosmetology class at Lorenzo Walker Technical College, Michelle demonstrated exceptional skill and leadership from the very beginning of her career. As a table leader who helped instruct fellow students, she developed the patient, educational approach that now benefits every client in her chair. Her exceptional progression through Salon Mulberry’s intensive apprenticeship program—where only the most skilled stylists advance to the floor—further refined her natural talents.

Michelle’s expertise spans the full spectrum of hair color, from luminous blondes and rich brunettes to vibrant fashion colors that make a statement. Her meticulous approach to dimensional color has quickly established her as a go-to stylist for clients seeking perfectly customized results. Whether creating subtle babylights or bold, chunky highlights, she analyzes each client’s unique features—face shape, skin tone, and eye color—to design harmonious color that enhances natural beauty.

Her exceptional talent for special occasion styling has made her one of Naples’ most requested stylists for important celebrations. From elegant updos for galas to romantic styles for anniversaries, Michelle combines technical precision with artistic flair. Her versatility shines through her ability to work with all hair types and lengths—whether adding volume to fine hair, managing thick textures, or creating movement in short, medium, or long styles.

Michelle excels in both classic and contemporary techniques, including hand-painted balayage, seamless color melting, and strategic lowlight placement for depth and dimension. Her skill extends to precision cutting for both women and men, with particular expertise in traditional scissor techniques for gentlemen’s cuts. Continuous education in the latest trends, including keratin smoothing treatments and fashion color techniques, keeps her services at the forefront of the industry.

“My experience as a peer educator taught me that great hair is about communication and understanding. I analyze what makes each client unique—their features, their lifestyle, their personal style—and create customized color and cuts that make them feel absolutely confident and beautiful.”
