Hair Stylist and Colorist: Valerie Esperanza

Valerie Esperanza brings over 11 years of expertise to the chair, with extensive Sassoon-based training from Luxelab in Santa Monica. A true born-and-raised LA stylist, she’s known for creating bright, dimensional blondes and rich brunettes that are low-maintenance, healthy, and effortlessly glamorous.

While color is her specialty, Valerie also has a deep love for precision haircuts and relaxed, “undone” waves-styles tailored to highlight each client’s natural beauty and personal vibe.

Since moving to Asheville in 2022, Valerie has embraced the city’s warm, artistic energy. Outside the salon, you’ll find her with her husband and young son, exploring local breweries, getting lost in a good book, or taking classes to keep her creative spark alive.
