Nina
Stylist
Nina is easygoing, calm, and someone clients instantly feel comfortable with. She loves creating blondes and dimensional color that looks natural, stays healthy, and grows out beautifully. Clients appreciate how much Nina listens. She takes hair health seriously, never rushes the process, and makes sure you leave feeling confident about your color. She’s a great choice if you want thoughtful, customized color in a relaxed environment.
When she’s not in the salon, she’s usually hanging out with her fiancé, family and her big goofy pup, most likely at the beach.
Christen
Stylist
Christen is your go-to girl for bright blondes, seamless color, and low-maintenance hair that still turns heads. With a laid back vibe and a serious eye for detail, she’s all about creating fun appointments and flawless results.
Babe extension certified and obsessed with highlights, she’ll make sure you leave feeling confident and refreshed.
Mom of three, fueled by coffee (and the occasional margarita), Christen keeps it real while keeping your hair looking its best.
Dea
Stylist
Service Focus: Lived-in blondes, dimensional color, extensions
I’m Dea, a licensed cosmetologist and colorist at Mane Retreat. I specialize in extensions, lived-in color, soft dimensional blondes, and rich, glossy brunettes designed to grow out effortlessly while preserving the integrity of the hair. Alongside color, I’m deeply passionate about hair styling, including bridal, updos, and refined event looks that feel timeless and elevated.
Originally from Albania, I moved to the U.S. 10 years ago, and hair has been my creative outlet and passion since my teenage years. My approach is intentional and detail-driven, with a strong focus on customization, hair health, and long-term results. I’m known for creating a calm, elevated experience where clients feel truly heard, cared for, and confident at every step. My philosophy is simple: healthy hair is always in style — and I love helping my clients feel effortlessly beautiful for both everyday wear and life’s most special moments.
