The Team at Salon Cora Crystal Lake

I’ve been doing hair for over 10 years, and I’m all about helping people express themselves—whether that’s through bold, alternative colors or classic, lived-in tones. I specialize in custom color, all haircuts, and offer extensions for added length, volume, or just a little extra drama. My chair is a judgment-free zone where we can get creative and have fun with your look, I am very passionate about making people feel confident and truly seen. Outside of the salon, I’m a homebody at heart, obsessed with all things spooky, and usually hanging out with my dogs. If you’re looking for a stylist who’s skilled, creative, and easy to vibe with, I’m your girl. 

Hey there! I’m Cara — a hairstylist with over 10 years of experience and a true passion for helping people feel beautiful and confident. I’m all about transformations, and I have a serious love for all things blonding, dimensional color, and those soft, seamless looks that grow out like a dream.

As a perfectionist (in the best way), I take my time to understand your hair goals and bring your vision to life with care and precision. Whether you’re after a bold change or a subtle refresh, my goal is to have you glowing — and feeling 100% taken care of.

My chair is your space to relax, recharge, and feel like yourself — just a little more elevated. Whether you want to chat, work, nap, or simply enjoy some quiet time, I’m here for it.

I can sometimes have a little sass and a lot of heart, and love to bring great energy to the salon. When I'm not behind the chair, you can find me chasing deals at TJMaxx or spending time with my family and my adorable little boy.

I love pairing beautiful color with precision cuts, whether it’s a chic classic bob or flowing long layers, always finished with a flawless blowout.

I also love adventuring with my golden retriever puppy, Ellie, or enjoying camping and fishing trips with my boyfriend. I’m passionate about traveling, fueled by my love for new experiences—and a good iced coffee.
