Stephanie Sykes

Hi, I’m Stephanie! I’ve been a stylist at Adrift over 2 years, but I’ve been behind the chair for a

total of 20 years. I am just as passionate and in love with this industry as I was on my first day

behind the chair all those years ago. I’ve always strived to create a welcoming, relaxed atmosphere where my clients can unwind and enjoy some time for themselves. At every appointment, I aim to provide a luxury hair experience for every client, whether you are new or someone I've been servicing for years. I am extremely proud of the relationships that I have been able to make with my clients over the years.

As a mom of 2 boys in youth sports, I know how hard it can be to take some time for yourself. I

love being the get-away for a few hours. When you're in my chair, we always start with an in-

depth consultation to determine the desired end result. I think it's extremely important to be

honest with my clients during our consultations on if their desired end result is achievable or not. I always lay out a game plan that works for my clients to ensure they achieve the hair they've always wanted. This includes creating a color palette customized for each client, along with a precision haircut tailored to their hair texture, unique features, and personality. I always finish with a silky smooth, bouncy blowout that is sure to last.

​

I love going beyond the chair during my blowouts by giving in-depth tips and tricks to my clients on how to recreate that salon blowout look. I feel accomplished when my clients leave the salon feeling confident that they can recreate the look at home.

Some of my favorite services to perform behind the chair include grey coverage/blending,

lived-in color, balayage, and brazilian blowouts. I must say my absolute favorite is having a pair

of shears in my hand; in my opinion, a great haircut is the foundation of easy, everyday at-home styling which leads to more “good hair days” for my clients (which, of course, is the ultimate goal).

Whether you're looking for a transformative new look or maintaining your signature style, I am

committed to delivering results that not only meet, but exceed your expectations. I love being the reason my clients leave with a million-dollar smile and feel as beautiful on the outside as I see that they are on the inside. There’s nothing I enjoy more than hearing my clients say, “I love it!” while sitting in my chair. 

Feel free to call the salon to book an appointment! If you’re like me and sometimes experience phone anxiety, you can easily book online as well! I can’t wait to meet you in my chair for some good conversation, lots of laughs and, of course, great hair. I am so ready to start making your hair dreams a reality!

When I'm out of the salon, you can almost always find me driving to and from a baseball field

with one of my boys. I love every minute of being a baseball mom! Although it takes up most of

our time, I would have it no other way. I enjoy spending time with my family, cooking for them, lounging with my dogs, and indulging in true crime through podcasts or documentaries. I like to think that if I weren't so passionate about doing hair, I might have become a detective!

Thanks for taking the time to learn a bit about me and I hope to see you in my chair soon!
