Alyssa Rozowy - Hairstylist

Alyssa was born in Manchester, CT. She’s always been the friend to do everyone’s hair in the kitchen, including her own. After working many (miserable) odd jobs, she decided to quit her insurance agent position and finally go to school for cosmetology. Her passion has always been with coloring and cutting hair but it took a turn of events for her to really be able to dive in to doing hair professionally.

Alyssa has focused on specializing in vivid colors, cutting shags and mullets. She loves cheering on creativity wether it’s from fellow stylists or guests in the salon. For her, there is nothing better than being the trusted and loyal source for taking an idea and bringing it to life.

Alyssa enjoys spending time on the weekends with her two dogs (Apollo and Zara), finding treasures at flea markets, collecting creepy dolls, and eating at all of the vegan eateries.
