Bio
My unofficial journey in hair began at the age of 17 when some brave friends allowed me to cut their hair with kitchen scissors. I instantly fell in love. I knew I had found my passion and soon after, I followed my dream to New York City.
After graduating the Aveda Institute in Soho, I apprenticed under Nick Arrojo. New York and Arrojo Studio provided me with incredible experiences. It’s where I shaped my overall esthetic and came to specialize in Haircutting and Razor Craft.
Life took me to Colorado where I established myself as a stylist in a sweet town along the front range. While far from the fast-paced city, I soon fell in love with nature and the mountains surrounding this gorgeous town. While quickly building a full book of clients, I was able to let my creative side free and really allow myself to flow with the razor. I fell in love with a slower-paced life and started taking better care of myself. That is when I started to fall in love with wellness and incorporating it into our industry
Eventually, I was drawn back to my roots and moved back to Kansas City, MO with my little family. I founded Hair by Sarah Beck to embark on a new journey providing independent education and sharing my passion for the razor.
The next step of my journey came about by popular demand and to inspire my fellow hairstylists. After deep, meaningful conversations during our classes, I realized that you, too, love your career and also sometimes struggle with the demands of our jobs. So was born the Mental Wellness Retreat. This magical event tackles difficult issues head-on. It empowers, supports, and nurtures the parts of us that aren’t always addressed in technical education.
I now offer a fusion of razor haircutting and wellness workshops. I cater education based on each individual's needs and customize each class accordingly. I’m inspired by our industry, by you, by authenticity, by people open for change in all ways, and open-hearted humans.
