lindsay davis
the connection between art and caring for others is the reason lindsay is so passionate about her career. with a focus on natural looking color lindsay loves creating custom low-maintenance looks for each person. after many years of training and mentorship at the jessica todd salon, lindsay went on to the l’oréal professionel academy and became certified as a master colorist. she finds the title of master colorist a bit silly because there’s always something to learn, but she’s earned it. the constant change and growth that comes with being a colorist is one of the many reasons why lindsay is still in love with her career more than 15 years later.
