Naphtali Crouse
OWNER
Hello there, my name is Naphtali Crouse. I entered the beauty industry in 2000 working as a makeup artist. It was then that my passion was sparked for the hair industry. I attended PCI and graduated in 2003. I immediately loved hair color and that became my specialty for over my entire 20-year career as a stylist. Throughout my career I have seen it ALL when it comes to hair, I’ve tackled more challenges than I can count on a head of hair! I’ve enjoyed every minute of it and getting to know the wonderful people along the way. During my journey I have studied hair color extensively, hair extensions and hair thinning treatments and regrowth methods. I have attended and taught more educational events than you will care to read about… so I will spare you! HA!
I have also become interested in color analysis and studied several analysis methods. Once I discovered House of Colour services, it was like all of the pieces of the puzzle fell into place. I loved the guidance of hair color by season and haircuts that fit your Clothing Personality. When I’m not in the salon I enjoy spending time with my husband and three very busy children. We’re either outside when the sun is shining or running our kids all over Ankeny to their many activities!
I am currently not seeing clients as a hairstylist. I’m fully committed to being a teacher and leader to my team.

Abbey Longstreet
salon DIRECTOR
Hi! My name is Abbey Longstreet and I am an Iowa native. I spent my formative years in the Des Moines area and I am now proud to call Blend & Bright in Ankeny my work home.
I have been a stylist since 2012, and I pride myself on being part of a salon with a super chill and friendly ambiance. While I greatly enjoy discussing our latest Netflix binges, I also love that our salon can provide some relatively uninterrupted relaxation. I have been a color specialist for over ten years, but I really feel like my work has shined the most since coming to Blend & Bright. Having the knowledge of coloring according to season, really helps me “hit it out of the park”. Whether you’ve had your colors done or not, I pride myself on working together with my clients to find a color that’s most complimentary to their skin tone and lifestyle. I love color with longevity! And I greatly enjoy creating hair color that uniquely compliments each of my clients even more! My goal is for you to leave with beautiful hair, so you can feel like the best version of you.
When I’m not in the salon, I’m probably watching tv with my dog Glen, planning my next trip or concert, or kicking serious butt at trivia! If you sit in my chair, chances are I will probably ask you what you’re watching or about your favorite restaurants in town. I will also probably tell you about mine. I’d love to meet you and talk about hair! Please feel free to check out my Instagram page or click the link to book!

Haley Gibson
stylist
Hello, I’m Haley! I grew up in northern Iowa and am so happy to be serving you at Blend & Bright Salon! I graduated from the Professional Cosmetology Institute in 2017. Since graduating, I have been serving the Ankeny community in helping you achieve your hair and makeup goals. I’ve also found a genuine passion for education in this field. I am constantly studying how to bring you the most up-to-date and on-trend looks.
I enjoyed attending the Redken Symposium in Las Vegas and The Redken Exchange in New York, where I learned advanced color techniques. I enjoy sharing my education by showing you new ways to use products and style your hair in a way that makes your everyday life easier. Through my experience as a stylist I have also enjoyed being a mentor to my teammates in hair color and hair cutting.
In addition, I love providing luxury services for my guests in a beautiful, relaxing environment. It brings me such joy when I see you enjoying how amazing you look and feel when you leave the salon! My time outside of doing hair and my job is mainly spent with my husband, two boys, and my dogs! We love going outside, playing with trucks, or chasing the dogs around our yard. My family brings me so much happiness!

Christina Blanchard
Esthetician
Hello everyone, I’m Christina!
I’m a city girl at heart, growing up in Waukee, Iowa and now get to be in Ankeny offering my skincare expertise at Blend & Bright! Growing up I always knew I wanted to help people but wasn’t sure how. After I graduated high school, I chose PCI Academy to become an esthetician.
Since then I’ve worked to provide the best skin and beauty routines to every one of my beautiful clients. I specialize in skin services, scalp facials, brows, lashes, and waxing! Whether it’s starting your skincare journey, getting ready for your big day, or just relaxing, I’m here for you! I go out of my way to take extra classes and courses giving you the most knowledgable information on today’s facial products and services.
When I’m out of the spa, I’m spending time with my boyfriend and our crazy cats. I also enjoy trying new places specifically food places around the Des Moines Metro (I know the best spot for fajitas)! I’ve been incorporating new exercises into my day-to-day life, so far I really love yoga and weight lifting!
I’m looking forward to meeting all your skincare and beauty needs!

Bella Phelan
Stylist/Esthetician
Hello all, my name is Bella.
I grew up in Waukee making the Des Moines area my home. I proudly became licensed as both a cosmetologist and esthetician from graduating at the Aveda Institute.
I chose to be dual licensed after discovering my love for all things hair and skin. I especially enjoy working with curls & textured hair. I also have prior experience specializing in blowouts and special occasion styles. I love being a part of helping you feel SO BEAUTIFUL on your special day!
What really excites me is when I can utilize both my hair and skin care knowledge. Working in a head spa performing scalp facials is the most relaxing and unique way to use both my skills.
When I’m not at the salon I’m usually finding a new recipe or restaurant to try. So when you’re in my chair, we can talk all things food! I also enjoy spending time with my Corgipoo, and relaxing on the couch watching Netflix.
I’m thrilled to meet you and provide you with a beautiful experience. Please tap the link below to learn more about me and view my work!

House of Color Team
Naphtali C – Ankeny, Blend and Bright
Hey friends, I’m Naphtali and I’m so glad you’re here!
I got my colors done early on in 2020 and it really changed my life! I walked into my appointment being really confident I already knew my season. I had been a hair color specialist for many years. So when it came to analyzing people’s eyes, hair color and skin tone, I thought I knew it all!
During my appointment I learned there were many gaps in my own understanding of personal coloring. It truly blew me away when I saw the process with my own eyes. Guess what… I was not accurate in my assessment of what my season was.
When I had my style class I was again blown away by the depth of information I received that was life changing for me! It has been such a fun journey to know how to dress my body confidently, as well as pairing that with displaying my personality through my wardrobe. I have NEVER felt like a more authentic version of myself than I do now!
I can’t wait to meet you & share these amazing experiences with you to help you build confidence in Color & Style too!
OFFERED
Amy S – Ankeny, The District
After researching the color analysis process, Amy decided to ask for the appointment as a gift. And what a gift it was! She finally understood why she didn’t love her wardrobe. To have the tools to focus on her best colors for everything she wears — from makeup to accessories — was truly life changing.
Amy feels SO blessed to share this gift and teach men and women about the joy of loving their colors! She added to her understanding by taking the style class a few months later — which completed her personal image transformation.
She highly encourages everyone that has their colors done to take the style class. Personal stylists have been seen as a luxury, but it is now more accessible than ever. Amy truly believes that color and style will save you time and money and make the daily ritual of dressing more of a joy!

Kyla B – Ankeny, Blend and Bright
Kyla is so excited to join the House of Colour team, she operates her beautiful studio out of her home in Ankeny! Kyla was gifted a color analysis at a time when she was not feeling her most confident. Finding out her “wow” colors instantly changed how she saw herself. From that point on, Kyla encouraged everyone that commented on how great a color looked on her to have their colors done. Soon after Kyla booked her style appointment and fell in love with the whole process, science, and ease of being able to put an outfit together and shine from the inside out.
Kyla knew joining House of Colour would be the perfect opportunity for her to be able to help others find their shine, too!
In Kyla’s free time she enjoys spending time with her family and friends, and doing cross fit.
