Meljaye’s strong foundation in the salon world began long before she attended, and graduated from the Aveda Institute in Washington, D.C., and continues today as an experienced and talented artist at Atelier Studio. Her passion for working with people and sharing her knowledge with every guest is evident in the beautiful work she does. She is her own best model, and frequently posts her styling videos to Youtube to share her tips and tricks. Meljaye Simie on YouTube
She considers educating her guests on how to do their own hair to be a priority at every visit.
Her specialities: Extensions, Smoothing treatments, Curly and textured hair, balayage, and customized color techniques.
When she’s not in the salon, she loves to cook, hike, and is super crafty with the crafts!
