Meet Your Hologram Stylist: Lillie
Here at Hologram Salon, we LOVE our talented hair artists and stylists, and we want you to love them too! Here is a little Q&A with our apprentice and braid-master, Lillie Ramos.
What inspired you to be in this field?
Coloring my mom’s hair in our bathroom when I was a little girl is what got me hooked! I was also that person constantly braiding/curling my friends hair growing up.
What is your favorite part of this job?
Seeing the transformation; in the hair but also in people’s overall confidence when they leave your chair!
What is your hair specialty? What do you like most about it? What makes it hard, or tricky?
Braids, braids, and more braids!!! I love manipulating the hair into shapes and forms to create a specific look. The hardest part is maneuvering different hair types, making thin hair look fuller than it is naturally or condensing thick hair to better fit their desired look. But the challenge is also the fun part!
What is the most difficult hair request you’ve had and how did you do?
Creating fullness that’s not naturally there. Texture & hairspray baby, texture & hairspray.
How do you want your clients to feel after coming to you?
Confident, vibrant, and at ease.
What are your favorite things to do when you’re not slaying hair?
Work! I like to stay as busy as possible so if I’m not in the salon I’m probably bartending – my other passion. But when I do find down time, I’m probably eating my weight in tacos or drinking margaritas with my friends!
What are your dreams for the future in reference to hair styling?
I see myself working as a hairstylist on production sets or traveling around the world as celebrity’s personal hairstylist!
Anything else you would like us to know about you?
I have a cat named kitty and she’s a QUEEN! I will eat a whole box of Trader Joe’s dark chocolate peanut butter cups with no shame. Vanessa Hudgens is my muse – for everything, truly. I’m pretty sure I’m Slim Shadys #1 fan.
What’s your favorite part about working at Hologram?
Having an encouraging team around you that truly wants to see each other succeed and to help each other be the best stylist they can be is amazing! Our staff camaraderie is so contagious and fun - because if you didn’t know this already - we’re all hilarious!
