Your mane gal

About Tori's Journey

Howdy! I'm Tori, the gal behind the chair. I specialize in custom, bright and healthy blending along with 4 different extension methods. Whether you're wanting to enhance your current look or do a complete transformation. I love making people laugh and feel confident in their own skin. The lifelong friendships, constant education and creativity is what I love most about working behind the chair. In my free time, I am spending time with my friends and family, lounging on the couch with my pup Goldie, or getting the crowd going and singing karaoke. I couldn't imagine myself doing anything else in this world, getting to do what I love everyday is a true gift. I can't wait to see you in my chair!

Client Testimonials

"From blonde to brunette I wouldn't trust my mane to anyone else in Austin! I was looking for a stylist who didn't start my hair and have their assistant finish it. She's fun, funny and I've always left the salon more confident than when I arrived. Thank you for being you, Tori!"

VERONICA HORNSBY

" I only have great things to say about Victoria! First, she is incredibly talented at doing hair and puts her absolute heart into it. Second, it's always such a great time sitting on her chair because she's funny, she listens, and she gives honest feedback. I recommend her again and again! Victoria is a gem and you're going to be so happy you came across her. I'm sad she left California because no one does hair like her. She's and amazing stylist and has an even bigger heart! Cheers to Tori!"

SHASTA PELLEGRINO

"Tori is a hair goddess. She brought my blonde back to life and made me laugh while doing it. She felt like a best friend from the moment I sat in her chair. We talked about life and love and everything in between and by the time she was done, I felt like a brand new person!"

HEATHER HOLMES

"Tori you get me and my hair. Hands down best colorist I've ever experienced. I have super thick butt long hair and Tori never got intimidated or lost in it. I've had a lot of stylist say they can handle my hair, to find out they truly had no idea. Tori is the real deal, from the first visit to my last. Now I have to figure out how to get my butt back in her chair and magical hands. Thinking a trip to Texas might be in my future. Cali misses you!"

REBEKHA WOLF

"I don't remember the FIRST time but I remember the energy you gave off and always made me feel so comfortable and confident after our appointments wether it was you taking my blonde and me begging for 22" extensions lol you will always be my most favored hair stylist! Thank you for always making me feel amazing and look amazing!"

MELISSA RODARTE

"Any lifetime blonde knows the struggle of finding the perfect stylist. I don't think I've ever truly been happy with my hair until I met Tori, and she has my full trust to do whatever she thinks is best every time I sit in her chair. I've never been disappointed, only impressed and happy. Not only is she an expert at her craft, she's a good person to know. Her energy is calm, confident, and capable. I know I'm not alone in saying this, but I'd follow her anywhere."
