Learn everything you need to know to start incorporating this tool in your services! In this hands-on class you’ll learn theory, how to hold the razor, safety, weight and length removal techniques, and hands-on with personal instruction.
With 25 years behind the chair and training under Nick Arrojo, Sarah has the technical, practical, and creative experience to teach you everything about the amazing straight razor.
Includes lunch snacks and sparkling water. Please provide a mannequin (does not have to be brand new, just long enough for one-length haircut). Stands provided.
Mental health support for hairstylists and beauty professionals.
Because we’re often the “hairapists” for everyone else.
Hi, I’m Sarah.
I help beauty professionals navigate overwhelm, burnout, and the emotional weight of working behind the chair — this is a place where mental health and the beauty industry meet.
I also teach straight razor classes and specialize in transformation cuts.
Whether you’re here for support, education, or to book an appointment — you belong here.
I’m so glad you’re here.

The Balanced Hairstylist:
Because we are therapists with no therapy training
Hairstylists and beauty professionals are therapists with no therapy training. Does this resonate with you? We are often empathic hairstylists that reach exhaustion and burnout in our industry. I’ve curated a special program to share the tools necessary to feel more balanced behind the chair and living your every day life. This program is created by a hairstylist, for a hairstylist. Don’t wait any longer to feel more balanced and rejuvenated.

I have participated in 3 different wellness workshop and conversation series with Sarah and I feel that they truly helped me make positive change in my life. Working behind the chair asks a lot of us, both body and soul and The Balanced Hairstylist has helped me to gain insight into the life you CAN have! Between the in person workshops and the Instagram live conversations with Gigi, Sarah helps to bring innovation and conversation together to help our community be whole and move forward together!
