Karen feels being a hair stylist is like catching up with your best friends all day sharing life lessons, new beauty tips, and life experiences. A third generation South Bay native, Karen attended Southern California Regional Occupational Center (S.C.R.O.C.) where she received her cosmetology certificate while attending high school.

Attended Los Angeles Harbor College and achieved her Associate Degree in Business Administration. Karen continues to reach her goals which include advancing in the latest hair techniques and education.
