I love to help you embrace your natural texture! From the shape of your cut to your everyday products, it all plays a huge part in achieving your hair goals. Let me be your guide!

Since I was a little girl I had a love for hair.  I became a licensed hairstylist in 2006 after graduating from Paul Mitchell Hair School, but I have never stopped learning my craft.  I have learned that good hair starts with a healthy scalp and a consistent hair care routine using clean and safe products. I started my holistic hair journey a few years ago and I am proud to be part of a growing industry that can offer low-toxic, ammonia-free color.  

I opened Haven Beauty in October 2019 to help continue to grow the holistic beauty industry and to create a space for others to do the same.  I invite you to sit in my chair and join me on this holistic hair journey!

Find me anywhere with saltwater + sunshine

I love lattes + lobster rolls (but maybe not together..)

90’s R&B or Hip-Hop all day

My favorite people to hang with are my fam!

My passion is to help you embrace your hair through all the changes of life. Whether that is finding a maintenance schedule that works for you and your blonde or finding a way to cover your grays while keeping your hair dimensional and full of life. I am here to listen and help you achieve your hair goals.

When I was a little girl my favorite place to be was the hair salon. My mom would take me for hours and I would sit and watch all the people get their hair done. I loved the feeling the salon had, the sense of community and glamour. When I decided to go to hair school in 2012 it just made sense. Since graduating TONI&GUY in 2013 I hit the ground running. Hair is my number one passion! I’m a forever student taking as many classes as I can and following every creator I can find on social media for ideas and tips. I am constantly learning about what is in the products we love so much and what purpose they hold for our hair. I’m excited to be apart of your journey as well and to achieve your hair dreams together! 

I love being in the mountains or on a lake! 

I drink my coffee black and will drive to the end of the earth to my favorite coffee shops. 

In the car I’m either listening to a podcast
or listening to Taylor Swift

My happy place is sitting around a backyard
surrounded by my family.

Amy Provencher | Stylist | Instagram

I am a hair extension specialist focused on installs that will be comfortable, non-damaging and practically invisible. I strive to create a custom plan that will achieve your dream hair but also fit your lifestyle!

As a girl on the go, I am quite familiar with the feeling of overwhelm. I've learned the importance of self care and taking time for yourself to simply unwind. It's important to me that you feel pampered, relaxed, and rejuvenated during and after your appointment. I fell in love with doing hair because of the way it can change someone's mood or brighten up their day. Your hair is the outfit you wear everyday, so I take deep interest in what your goals are for every appointment to come. I'm here for you, so whether its a natural lived in balayage or some new extensions that you're looking for, we will work together to create a plan custom to your wants and needs. I love to learn, which is great in an industry that is ever changing and for keeping up to date on techniques, trends, and haircare tips.

I find the outdoors and fresh air relaxes me the most.

I have a major love for sweets, but pizza takes
the cake as my favorite.

Soundtrack to my life:  Country Music.

When I'm not at the salon you might find me at the dance studio, crafting up some DIYs, or having fun with my friends and family.

Katie Gendrolius | Stylist | Instagram

I have been doing hair since 2006. I am passionate about blonding, dry cutting and making people feel good at any age. I am a mom of two teenage girls. My oldest is actually in school to be hairdresser as well! I have worked with Emily my entire career and love now working at Haven alongside her. My favorite part of my job is listening to my clients and hearing their stories. My chair is a place that I want my clients to feel comfortable to be themselves!

I love to shop - my favorite store is Evereve.

My favorite foods are pistachios and leftover Thanksgiving sandwiches.

I love to talk!

Max Sarnblad | Stylist | Instagram

I have been a hairstylist for 10+ years and I strive to keep your hair at its healthiest state. I love to focus on detailed haircuts, and dimensional hair color. Ever since I was young I had a fascination with the world of beauty. Growing up, I loved musicals, Broadway and old Hollywood films. I became so inspired by some of the looks from actors like May West to Marilyn Monroe and Judy Garland (to name just a few) that I KNEW this was the career I wanted to be a part of.

I loved going to the salon with my mom as a child and would just sit and watch their whole process and notice how much they loved what they were doing. I then started to understand how much you could impact someone’s life by becoming their hair stylist. I ended up going straight into Cosmetology school once I graduated from Blackstone Valley Tech in 2012 and the rest is history. I have met some truly amazing humans while doing this job that it pushes me to become a better version of myself and a better stylist. I love education, and learning new techniques and product knowledge so I’m able to keep my clients hair at its healthiest, along with a comfortable and safe place for them to just be themselves.

I love to drive and I will always have a show tune music playlist ready.

My matcha iced latte with oat milk and three pumps of raspberry is the key to my heart.

I have always been an artist, so I never go anywhere without my sketchbook.

My partner is my best friend and we’re either out on an adventure or sitting at home on the couch with our two cats playing video games,
or finding a new scary movie to watch. 

Bianca Julien | Massage Therapist | Instagram

Being introduced to the art of massage through a Boston program called BAHEC in high school, I knew this was how I wanted to make an impact on the health and wellness of the people in my community. Growing up in a Haitian household, my mother didn't believe in taking pharmaceuticals for every pain. Being surrounded by original Caribbean traditions, I knew the holistic lifestyle was for me. I finally felt comfortable going to school for massage and graduated June 2022 from Lincoln Tech in Lincoln, RI.

I have always had a warm spirit and people naturally feel comfortable telling me what's bothering them. With massage, I use the skills I learned in school as well as my intuition and allow my hands to be the eyes to muscles. The troubles of the world don't allow the average individual to take a pause to reconnect so when clients come to me; I infuse breath, meditation and massage together to make that reconnection of mind, body and spirit. Add massage to your Self-care routine and let's reconnect together!

I enjoy sitting by the ocean or exploring an enchanted forest.

I can drink coconut water & iced chai with
oat milk forever.

Painting, dance and poetry help me express
my deepest emotions.

I feel at home cuddled with my kids watching a movie or laughing at our own silliness.

Dawn Richardson | Esthetician | Instagram

I am brow obssessed! From shaping and tinting to lamination and lift, brows are everything for framing your face! My teenage years were filled with all the wonderful things you can imagine, and also cystic acne. My journey through the ups and downs of cystic acne and hormonal changes left me resilient, compassionate, empathetic, and determined. I strive to empower my client's to feel the best they can through great holistic skincare both in salon and at home. We are all beautiful in our own right, and sometimes we just need a little boost of confidence from the outside to work its way in. You will gain knowledge and care in your session with me, bringing intention and purpose to make you feel great about the skin you're in.

I am passionate about yoga and love teaching it! Hope to see you in a class!

Podcasts and books are my besties.

I'm crazy for coffee.

Family days are the best days.

Victoria Enriquez | Esthetician | Instagram

I’m a Holistic Esthetician specializing in skin sculpting facial massage techniques, skin supporting ingredient selection and brow artistry.

I became obsessed with skincare around the age of 11, when I started my own skincare routine after reading about how you should care for your skin in a magazine. It was a really natural progression for me to attend the Foreman Center Vocational School while I attended high school (originally from western New York), and received my Cosmetology license in 1998, practicing Esthetics ever since. I find the human body, including the skin, fascinating and can’t learn enough about it, even 24 years later! Esthetics are not just a job for me; the field is a huge part of who I am! Building relationships with my clients is the best. I love helping them find small ways to tweak their home routines in order to lend the results they are looking for. It’s so rewarding! I also love educating people on why things are happening within their skin in an easy way, teaching how to heal concerns at the root of the cause.

Over the years, I have found clean and safe skincare to be even more effective than than traditional skincare because the power of plants is HUGE. They work so synergistically with our bodies. Pair that plant power with knowing how the skin functions, and the results are just gorgeous at any age!

Sunsets are MY JAM. They are inspiring and
captivating every single time!

I’m a tea drinker.

I listen to most genres of music and learned to
play the cello in my 20’s.

Walking my dogs in the rain is my favorite, and brings me right back to me. Centered. So good for the soul.

Rose Hughes | Esthetician | Instagram

When I was a kid I would experiment with new makeup looks and hairstyles on my dolls all the time, and as I got older, my mom became my test dummy for new makeup looks and facials I wanted to try. When I got to high school, I wanted to become a therapist, so I could provide a meaningful change in people's lives, but after COVID, I realized I could use my passion for skincare to help people! Now, I am making my dreams come true as an esthetician, by incorporating my love of skincare, wellness, and spirituality to provide each client with a restorative experience.

Some of my favorite things: Camping, Hiking, Yoga, Crystals, Fluffy Cows. 

I feel most at peace when im out in nature. I love exploring new trails, learning about different plants, watching birds, swimming in lakes,
and just being grounded outside. 

When I’m not in the salon i’m probably enjoying a lazy day with
my cat Luna.

Aisha Lutwama | Salon Coordinator | Instagram

Growing up I realized my passion was for helping people, whether that was physically or mentally. It started as wanting to become a nurse and now one day I’m hoping to be a social worker, but for right now you’ll find me behind the desk. I’m here to make your Haven Beauty experience smoother and more enjoyable (if that’s even possible)!

Tim Burton, Henry Selick, and Jordan Peele are a few of my favorite filmmakers.

I love a good iced dirty chai with oat milk.

I really enjoy reading and writing poetry, tarot cards, + crystals.

I’m happiest when I’m surrounded by nature and when it’s warm outside.
