As owner and operator of Salty Salon & Extension Bar my vision was to create a salon with advanced trained stylist with a coastal vibe.
I specialize in luxury coastal color, lived in color, and Invisible Bead Extensions. I draw my inspiration from Sunkissed hair and messy waves, I’ve traveled and trained under the industry’s top notch stylists to stay on top of the latest trends at Ramirez Tran, 901 , Vidal Sassoon, J Beverly Hills, Oribe Cutting academy, Invisible Bead Extensions (IBE), Habit Hand Tied Extensions, and many more.
Lets grow together, see you soon!

“This salon is professional AND fun! So chic and classy and nothing but positive vibes. Im so glad my friend recommended me to Laura. She is amazing and when I took a picture to her of a girl with long hair and beach waves she turned my shoulder length hair into my hair dreams with top notch quality hair extensions. Ive had them ten months now and never want to go back!”

“I recently got hair extensions at Salty Salon, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! The staff was incredibly friendly and professional, making the entire experience enjoyable. The extensions themselves look and feel completely natural, blending seamlessly with my hair. They’ve added volume and length, giving me the confidence boost I was looking for. I highly recommend Salty Salon for anyone considering hair extensions – they’ve exceeded my expectations!!”
“What a wonderful Salon! You’re warmly welcomed and immediately feel comfortable. The stylists are exceptionally skilled and trained by the owner. I got a great haircut with highlights that look beautifully natural. Highly recommend!”
“The salon itself is absolutely amazing, but the people that work there are equally amazing. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. Ive been here a couple times and had Victoria cut and balayage my hair. She has done an amazing job both times! Highly recommend this place.”
“Natalie was my hairdresser and was the absolute best. The salon is beautiful and everyone there was really nice. Natalie helped me to go from brown to blonde and i left happy and with my dream hairstyle. Will definitely come back , couldn’t be happier.”
“MY GIRL ZOE PITTS IS A LIFESAVOR. First of all, she is bubbly and sweet and a genuinely kind person, which is important when you spend 3+ hours with your hairdresser per session. She is super flexible to schedule appointments with ESPECIALLY hair emergencies!!! I recently accidentally colored my hair blue. BLUE!! What I thought was a toning mask was Demi color. It was horrific - tears and tears and texted Zoe immediately. She squeezed me in the SAME DAY and color corrected everything beautifully. She turned my blue back to blonde and toned everything to perfection. I am so so happy that I have Zoe in my corner, both as a stylist and a kind human! I HIGHLY recommend!! ”
