Kristin Leighton

It’s so great to meet you!

 

A little bit about me…

In my spare time I enjoy spending time in Mother Nature - hiking, paddle boarding, jet skiing and golfing. I also love reading, journaling, music/concerts and working out. My family, friends, and dog, Cash, make my life so much sweeter! 

I’m excited to welcome you to Roots & Wings Hair Studio! In the meantime, follow me on Instagram @k_clairs_chair.

The Industry…

After receiving my degree in Early Childhood Education and beginning my teaching career, I still had a strong desire to go to Beauty School, so I did! Best. Decision. Ever.

I have been a hairstylist for 17 years. In 2021, after 15 years in the same salon working alongside my best friend and mentor, I uprooted from my hometown in Pennsylvania and spread my wings, landing me in North Carolina!

I credit my charismatic, passionate, dependable personality to my success in growing my clientele, past and present. I love truly getting to know my clients as much as I enjoy making them feel refreshed and even more gorgeous than when they walked in.

In addition to both men and women’s haircuts, I am well versed in color and foiling and coloring techniques, blondes, lived-in looks, multiple methods of extensions, formal styles, and updos.
