Chelsea started The Hideout Salon and Lounge to create a space and community that welcomes everyone to be their unique selves, and to create great hair! She has been a stylist since 2005, originally from gloomy Seattle where she first fell in love with mermaid-colored hair under grey skies. In her free time she cuddles with her three rambunctious pups and two oddball cats, makes cakes with eggs from her backyard chicken coop, and spontaneously buys plane tickets to places she’s never seen or just can’t resist seeing again.
