Gwynne

The “mantra” of the studio is:Relax, Receive, Renew.

Gwynne McLaughlin has been a hairstylist for over 20 years. From hair and makeup in salons, to television, fashion shows and freelance print-work.

 

Gwynne relocated from San Diego to Eugene and found her platform to create at Studio Mantra, her first salon.

“After working in others’ spaces for so many years, it’s a blessing to be able to create my own environment, a calm, relaxing atmosphere where creative has no boundaries.”

 

 

This has led to benefit hair/fashion shows, the first “HairArt” on ArtWalk, photo shoots, and 3^rd place in NorthWest Stylists photo shoot cover contest.

She feels it’s just the beginning for Eugene, Studio Mantra and her stylists.

Marie

Marie De Ment has seven years experience with coloring, esthetics, hair styling, razor cuts, clipper cuts, natural & artificial nails as well as nail art and make-up. Starting in high school, she was working her magic on friends, family, and classmates. She has now been able to do so much more in her field including: styling for fashion shows, hair & make-up for wedding parties, hair & make-up on photo shoots as well as participating in “Hair Art” on the Eugene Art Walk. Growing up in a small town in eastern Washington she never expected to have the opportunities that she has found in Eugene. Marie has a great rapport with her clientele and it shows that she truly cares. Aside from having a close relationship with her clients she takes pride in  her work and wants everyone to be able to shine. Having a bad hair cut is like wearing an ugly dress for 3 months and that’s why you need a stylist that takes as much pride in your appearance as you do. Marie is a great listener and wants nothing more than to work with you and figure out what you want and what works for you.

Kelly

 

 

Kelly “Electreat” Meadows has been doing hair and makeup for ten years, and way more than that if you consider being born with the love of the craft. She always jokes that she came out of the womb with shears and makeup brushes. She moved to New Orleans to attend an Aveda Institute and received her license in hair, skin and nails. Also, she won an honored spot in a national competition to represent her school and perform on stage in front of 6,000 people at the global hair show for Aveda. After finishing school, she spent the next four years working in a prestigious French Quarter Aveda salon. Read more
