Beauty in Kennesaw, Georgia, and as a part of the
Ulta Beauty Artist Collective—a small group of
hair professionals and infl uencers who lead trends
and education for Ulta Beauty across the US. She's
also still using her eye for fashion behind the
scenes of photo shoots. In February, one of Laura's
collections was nominated in the prestigious North
American Hairstyling Awards (NAHA) in the
Styling and Finishing category. For this collection,
Laura designed the wardrobe. "Why not?" she says,
"I wanted to do something diff erent and cool, and I
didn't have a big budget."
Laura pivoted to specializing in texture a few
years ago. "My thought process has always been:
If I can do it, anyone can do it," she says. "No one
should ever be turned away for a service because
of the texture or curl pattern of their hair." is
