Team Cherished

Cali’s calm presence, incredible eye for detail, and relaxing scalp massage have quickly made her a guest favorite (I mean, who doesn’t need a killer scalp massage?!). Cali graduated Traviss Technical College in 2011 and is a blonding specialist in our salon. She also does an amazing blowout/style. Cali loves to educate you on the proper product usage and gives a styling tutorial every visit in order to help you reach your hair goals! Some of her favorite services include grey blending and lived in/custom colors and she’d love for you to DM her in instagram to book. In her time off Cali loves being with her husband, Brian, her seriously adorable son, Cash and their sweet little Olivia. They love to go to movies and ride all of the latest rollercoasters at the theme parks.

Hannah is one of our advanced stylists who always has a warm smile on her face. Her attention to detail beautifully shapes her craft, both in foiling and cutting. She makes everyone feel special and pampered with her wonderful shampoo massages. Hannah graduated from Traviss Technical College with a cosmetology license and has been in the industry since 2022. Hannah has excelled during her time here and continues to grow her clientele. Hannah loves hair cutting and beautiful dimensional hair color, leaving you with a fresh new style! Outside of work, Hannah loves spending time with her husband and their two GSP pups! In Hannah’s free time she loves to watch sports, paint and watch Disney movies!

Makenna’s joyful and bubbly personality brings such an exciting atmosphere to the salon. Makenna has exceeded in each position of the salon. She began at the front desk then shortly transitioned to assistant while in cosmetology school. She has now graduated from Aveda Institute in Brandon and is quickly filling her books as she’s transitioning to stylist! Makenna is our social butterfly, she loves to talk, loves to meet people, and will jump at any opportunity to sit in an open chair talking to and getting to know our guests. One of her many passions is doing wedding/special event hair and makeup where she creates such a sweet environment for the preparations of their event. She’s our energizer bunny, running at a mile a minute. In her time off she likes to spend quality time with her family and fiancé! Lots of wedding planning for 2026! We are excited to watch this sweet girl grow in her talents, and are so thrilled to have her a part of our team!

We love Stephanie and all her amazing talent! She is so well rounded in the hair world. Whether it’s vivid, extensions, blonding or just an incredible bouncy blowout, Stephanie is well versed! She’s also on our booth rental team so feel free to use her booking link or dm her directly on her Instagram to book.

Betania is another one of our amazing booth renters! She is our quiet but beautifully talented presence in the salon. Everyone who leaves her chair walks out with stunning hair. Whether its extensions or lived in color, her seamless blending is always a work of art! Feel free to contact her directly on her Instagram to book or call the salon and we can point you in her direction.

Yes that’s right! She’s BACK! Holly is a seasoned stylist who is back after spending the last two years home with her 3 kiddos! She began her career in 2010 and has continually grown in her expertise of hair over the years. Holly has been with Cherished from the start and such a special member of our team. She’s a Lakeland native and loves creating dimensional colors that are beautifully curated to each client.

Originally from Kentucky, she moved to Lakeland in 2017 to attend Southeastern University, where she earned her undergraduate degree in 2019 and my master’s in 2020. What started as a season for school quickly became something much more! Lakeland is where she met her husband, which makes it especially meaningful to her. After some time away, returning truly feels like coming home.
She always had a deep passion for helping people, and that passion is at the core of everything she does. As a certified spray tan artist, she began her journey in July 2024, and it has quickly become more than just a service; it’s a way to care for and serve others.

Her goal is to create an experience where you feel beautiful, confident, and genuinely cared for. Whether you’re preparing for a special event or simply wanting to feel your best, it is truly an honor to be a part of your moments and to get to know you along the way.

When she is not in the studio, she is at home with her husband and their four fur babies (two dogs and two cats), and probably making them all watch a reality show.

Baileigh is one of the bright lights of our team, known for her love of blonding, color, and the perfect blowout. As both an assistant and stylist, she brings an unmatched work ethic, a fun and energetic spirit, and a passion for growing behind the chair. Baileigh’s bubbly personality makes every appointment feel easy and enjoyable, and she’s currently building her clientele while continuing to refine her craft. When not in the salon, you can find her at the beach or on a beach enjoying the Florida sunshine with friends!

Jaz is a talented stylist with a passion for creating customized, dimensional color that enhances each client’s natural beauty. After graduating cosmetology school, she spent her first year assisting and refining her skills before confidently stepping behind the chair. With two years in the industry, Jaz specializes in dimensional blondes, lived-in color, balayage, and glossing services, always prioritizing healthy hair and results that fit her clients’ lifestyles. She is dedicated to continued education and staying current with the latest trends and techniques. Outside of the salon, Jaz enjoys beach days, exploring new places, fashion, and spending time with family and friends.

We are so excited to be offering nail services at the salon! Hannah is a licensed cosmetologist with a true passion for nails and creative nail art. A graduate of Travis Technical College, she has been honing her skills since before cosmetology school, always drawn to the beauty industry through her love of creativity and self-expression. Hannah specializes in detailed nail art and loves creating a pampering, uplifting experience that leaves every client feeling confident and beautiful. Outside of the salon, you can find her soaking up the sun at the beach, exploring farmers markets, thrifting, crafting, or spending time with family and friends.
