Haley Hinton
ESTHETICIAN
Hello! I’m Haley, Blend and Bright’s one and only esthetician who brings over five years of experience of all things skin. I graduated from the AVEDA Institute in 2018 and have spent most of my career thus far working in a medspa. It is my mission to give my clients a one-of-a-kind experience and leave them with undeniable improvements in their skin with the knowledge and resources to care for their skin outside of my treatment room.
Providing a comforting environment for my guests to take a moment to come back to themselves is where beauty really begins. Nurturing your body and your spirit are an essential part of aging gracefully and beautiful skin really does begin within. A relaxing but results driven facial is my favorite way to nurture my clients, along with providing enhancements such as lash lifts and brow laminations to help bring out their natural beauty and leave them looking refreshed, youthful, and bright.
As a busy mama of two young children, I know how hard it is to make time for yourself amidst the busyness of life. My family and I love to spend time outside exploring, gardening, creating art, cooking, dancing, and enjoying all the little joys life has to offer.
