PAYTON THOKEY
Color Loft Studio Owner
I am a dedicated passionate stylist in a small package! Though my chair has been lowered I still need my tip toes from time to time and my clients are always joking about it.I love my job for many reasons but my top 2 would have to be the amazing relationships I get to create with my guests and the art of doing hair itself. No one loves a good transformation more than me and I surely feel blessed when a client trusts me with the task! I am committed to making sure my clients are happy with their look and love sharing lightheartedness and laughter during our time together. Though I seem small I will never stop growing or reaching for my best to help my clients reach their's.

ASHLEY MCCUISTION
Color Loft Studio Owner
I love people and thrive on creativity!
These 2 things made becoming a stylist a no brainer over 10 years ago. I am passionate about my profession there is no doubt, from the special relationships I get to make with my clients to the creativity I thrive on and a schedule that allows me to put family first I just feel super blessed. If you sit in my chair you can expect me to help you fing the right style as I pride myself on leading my clients to have the hair of their dreams, Continuing Education never gets old to me and I cant imagine a life behind the chair without it. When I am not in the salon I am a total nature nerd, finding new parks and trails with my young daughter is how I spend my free time. Moving back to my hometown from Columbus where I spent the first 10 years of my carreer has made me realize how much I had missed my small town peeps! If you are looking for someone to get to know you and your hair I am your Girl! I look forward to building another beautiful clientele full of beautiful souls.
Paisley Smith
Color Loft Studio Owner
Welcome to my chair! My name is Paisley, and I am the face behind the chair here at my private salon suite inside Color Loft Salon. With over 10 years of experience as a stylist, my passion for hair is rooted in making people look and feel like the absolute best version of themselves. For the past decade, I’ve dedicated myself to mastering precision cuts, and the art of color. But what truly drives me is the connection I build with each person who sits in my chair. I designed my private suite to be a welcoming, relaxing retreat where we can work together to bring your unique hair goals to life. Whether you are here for a total transformation or a routine refresh, I can’t wait to welcome you in and chat about your next look!
