SALON MARCEL

Mila lamberson- owner, I have been a licensed hairdresser for over 40 years. My parents, both artists, immigrated from Europe and eventually settled in Carmel By The Sea in Central California. I grew up with a deep love of art and enjoy creating in many forms today. I began my career designing costumes for theatre, and was ultimately stumped when it came to styling hair and wigs. I decided to go to beauty school, and the rest, as they say, is history.

My training modalities include Vidal Sassoon, Pivot Point, Head Shape Matters, Sally Rogerson, DevaCurl, Rezo, and more. For many years, I taught and specialized in multiple methods of hair color. Having curly hair myself, I always had an insight into the behavior of curly hair and with the recent natural texture trend, my current specialty has shifted to the cultivation and love of natural wave and curl.

For me, the experience of doing hair is not simply the hair itself – my approach always begins with the person behind it. I strive to help and inspire every client to see their inner beauty, and having great hair is a wonderful way to begin the process. I recognize you are as unique as your curls, and my goal is to empower both in equal measure.
