Meet The Goats
Sheena Ernest
Founder
Eyebrow Pruner + Makeup Artist
Being in the beauty industry for well over a decade has opened my eyes to the way people see themselves. I think that now more than ever we need to empower and elevate one another.
I want my clients to see that they all have something beautiful to offer. There is so much power behind our individuality. Our uniqueness allows us to stay true to ourselves and there is nothing more gratifying.
My eyebrow obsessive-compulsive disorder paired with my love of symmetry has allowed me to refine and master the art of eyebrow shaping. I love a strong, natural, and low maintenance brow that is suitable for each individual’s face. Simple is beautiful.
Brian Rand
Founder
Master Hairstylist + Colorist
I have always felt the most joy when I am doing something creative. Being in the hair industry for close to two decades has allowed me to channel my creative drive and develop my own unique and intuitive style of cutting and styling. My past experience as a salon owner in Boston has allowed me to cultivate an environment where our clients feel like they aren’t just a number in my chair, but instead know they are in a safe place where they are truly being heard, and the foundation of a real relationship is being built.
Wake, shake, and go! hair is what I strive to give each of my clients. I love to encourage each person who sits in my chair to embrace the natural texture of their hair. I use the movement and shape of the haircut and enhance it with purposeful placement of color. My approach to color is customizing a tone dependent on each individual that will best compliment their hair, skin, and eye color. I am a lover (not a fighter) of gray hair and prefer to work with it rather than trying to cover it up.
Afterall, when your hair is on-point you walk with a little extra swagger in your step, and confidence is a beautiful thing.
