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. There she grew as an artist and loved all the excitement of her day to day clients as well as participating in fashion shows, performance art exhibits, prepping musicians for shows,  fantasy hair and makeup for mardi GRAS or other costuming events, extensions and constant continuing  education in the art of hair/ makeup. Even getting flown to New York and LA to apply synthetic dredlocks on a client and doing an album cover for a jazz singer with Legendary New Orleans photographer Herman Leonard.
She also attended and completed 15 months of massage training at Blue Cliff College of massage therapy in Metairie, Louisiana. Although she currently does not practice body massage she realizes the importance of touch and gives an incredible shampoo. After hurricane Katrina and relocating back toOregon she spent a year at a Roseburg Aveda salon and had to leave Aveda finally due to the severe allergies to that product line. Again relocating to Eugene and spent the next four years at London hair studio and day spa where she received education in Wella salon professionals cutting/coloring, Bumble and Bumble, Eufora, Bare Escentuals and attended an advanced stylist cutting class at the San Francisco Vidal Sassoon academy.
She just recently switched gears to join Studio Mantra as a new resident artist and for the last two years has skated in the Emerald City Roller Girls and just got drafted to her home team, the ANDROMEDOLLS.  Beyond the excellent resume and lifelong love of the craft, Kelly has realized that looking and feeling good shouldn’t come at such a high price. Great customized living art created for you by someone who will keep you laughing and feeling like a million can be found for a fair price!
