About Me

I’m Amy Hood. I’m an independent hair stylist working out of Studio Chavarria in downtown Asheville, North Carolina. I’ve worked in salons since 2010, lived in Asheville since 2012, and been behind the chair since 2017. 

I’m a color specialist and I value having a wide variety of techniques and looks in my clientele, I’d never want to limit myself to one! I have a particular passion for fashion colors and corrective work, but I’m just as happy working with grey coverage, reds and coppers, darker shades, and lived-in blonde techniques. I love working with my clients to bring their dreams to life and let their uniqueness shine.

I work with the elite professional color lines Schwarzkopf and Pulp Riot. I use a wide range of professional products to ensure I have something best suited to everyone’s hair type and individual needs, including R+Co, Milkshake, Olaplex, and Leaf & Flower.

Personally, I love horror movies, heavy metal, and corgis— even have one adorable little one of my own. When I’m not working you can usually find me going to a local show or snuggling with my dog. 

Honesty, integrity, and good communication are extremely important to me professionally. Oh, and a sense of humor. I’m just as comfortable listening to your problems and life stories as I am working in silence. Our client-stylist relationship is just that— a relationship that we both should enjoy.
