Meet Ashley
HMUA
She / Her
Wouldn’t it be a crazy idea for couples to embrace their beauty + not be stressed? Ashley created The Stylist Abroad when she felt like there was a gap in the industry that direly needed to be addressed. So many couples were told to fit in a box created either by “tradition” or the industry itself; to conform to an aesthetic. It was fundamentally time for CHANGE. And here it is! A beauty brand with you authentically at its center. Nothing makes her happier than a joyous client who sees just how beautiful they really are!
When she’s not styling someone else’s hair you stand a very likely chance of her either being out in nature or cozying up with creature comforts. She loves the outdoors & hiking especially those places where all you hear are the natural inhabitants & you’re quite literally the only soul around for miles. Beyond all of that her love, joy & time is with my fur babies (Fredrik, Bently & Bruno ) & partner (Danny). Whether you’re off on an adventure, having a coffee date or getting your hair done she brings a calm & radiant joy to the room. Libra vibes are definitely strong with this one.
Signature Style: Ethereal boho looks with clean texture. Elevated editorial luxury hairstyles. Airbrush & natural to enhanced neutral makeup. Minimalist and editorial approach with emphasis on good skin.
