Helen Taylor

salon owner

Helen has lived in the greater Los Angeles area since she was 8 years old. She attended Pasadena schools and shortly after graduating high school, enrolled in Cosmetology school at Pasadena City College. She graduated and acquired her license in 2014 and has been behind the chair ever since. She has worked all over Los Angeles including Beverly Hills, Studio City and Pasadena. In the middle of the pandemic in 2020, she began to envision a space of her own where her clients could feel safe & comfortable getting their hair done in a private setting. Hair Dreams Boutique Salon opened December 1, 2020 nestled in the hills of Pasadena, CA.

After specializing in Hair Extensions for 7 years, Helen began her journey as an educator for Hairdreams USA, the leading hair extension company in the world. She finds immense joy by bringing other stylists into the fabulous world of Hairdreams and teaching them the most innovative way to apply hair extensions. Helen loves connecting with hair stylists from all over the country and sharing her knowledge and “tips & tricks” of the trade. When she sees other people have the “aha” moment, when everything clicks, that’s the most gratifying part for her.

In 2023 Helen began her training to become a Certified Trichologist. Becoming a hair & scalp specialist will help her to differentiate different scalp conditions that range from sensitive scalp to inflammatory scaly scalp conditions as well as viral, fungal, or bacterial scalp problems. She will also learn how to analyze different scalp conditions and how to use various tools for scalp examination and care, thus being able to provide her clients with a detailed and personalized hair and scalp regimen to achieve the hair of their dreams.
