OUR TEAM
CAROLYN NIZENKOFF
Owner, Hairstylist, Educator
I'm Carolyn, owner of The Hair Studio, Corralitos. I specialize in hand-tied hair extensions and dimensional blondes.
I've been doing hair for 14 years and I opened the salon in 2015. At home I have my husband who is a Corralitos native, our two daughters, and our wild pup.
I got into doing hair by accident. I didn't like the classes in college, and I didn't like the job I had (selling cellphones sucked in the early 2000's). So, I decided to enroll in cosmetology school because, it was a short program and sounded kinda fun. I had no idea I'd still be doing hair and loving my career 14 years later.
Since moving to Corralitos, I have fallen in love with community and small town vibe. Opening the salon made me want to really connect with the community beyond the client who walk through our doors. I joined the Corralitos Women's Club a few years back and just last year began volunteering with the Corralitos Valley Report.
I feel fortunate to live, work, and raise my babies in such a wonderful community.
AMY GREEN
Hairstylist, Crafty Gal
I'm Amy the other (better? kidding!) half of The Hair Studio, Corralitos. I specialize in dimensional color, and I love giving dream hair with hand-tied extensions.
I an a San Juan Bautista native, but I got my start in hair while living in Utah. I began doing hair in 2009, and took a hiatus to raise my babies. I have two wild kids who are in elementary school, and are keeping me on my toes (you mamas know what I'm talking about🙄).
When I started working at The Hair Studio, Corralitos I was just getting back into hair and didn't really have a plan. Through my amazing clients I reignited my passion for my career and also found some amazing friends along the way.
Even though I don't live here in Corralitos I feel fortunate to spend my work days and some of my play days here with my clients and friends.
