The Team
Keely Jardine Coleman
Keely Jardine Coleman is a Loreal Professional Certified Balayage Expert specializing in natural looking hair color and French Balayage highlights. Her passion for creating highlights that look sun-kissed was inspired by her years spending time on the beaches of Santa Barbara. Observing the way surfer girls' hair naturally lightens in the sun and ocean led her to study the art of Balayage, a classic French technique that creates gorgeous, beachy highlights that offer dramatically lower maintenance than traditional foil highlights.
Keely has a Bachelor's degree in English from UC Santa Barbara and received her advanced education as a colorist at Vidal Sassoon and Loreal Academy in New York City under celebrity colorist, Nancy Braun (www.nancybraunsalon.com). She studies in Santa Barbara, Laguna Beach, Santa Monica and New York City annually for trend and technique updates.
When not in the salon Keely enjoys painting, making pottery and hiking with her three dogs, Vita, Elvis and Hobbes.
