hiii everyone!!!! welcome and THANKYOU- you are supporting my journey to becoming a BADASS hairstylist! I am emerging in the hair industry, diving into my passion headfirst and am ready to create magic. I am obsessed with coloring, cutting & styling. Focusing on all things luxury, blonde and bouncy. I was born & raised in cocoa beach and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I spend my time outside of the salon traveling to new places, exploring cuisine & tending to my yard/plants. My dog is one of the biggest parts of my life. It’s pretty much his world I’m just living in it. I can’t wait to have you in my chair! Let’s make your hair dreams come true!

Skyler Swearingen

Master colorist and precision hair cutter of 14 years. After training in Los Angeles from top artists from around the globe and opening my own space, I transferred my life to Cocoa Beach, Florida. I happily have nested at Stella’s Hair Studio where I am growing my clientele and love every moment in our beachside salon. My specialities include all blonding services, rich reds, and vibrant/creative colors. I love precision cutting for all length, but I have mastered haircuts above the shoulder: bobs, pixies, and men’s cutting. My newest addition to my skill arsenal is bridal styling, where I am learning to master all techniques. Reach out to me for any questions about your hair goals and we will make it happen! Call the salon or send me a DM at @skyordye on instagram for direct communication.
