Agnes Wsol – Owner/Stylist

Specialty – Highlights, Balayage, Updos, Braids and Custom Cuts

I started my career in Chicago and I am celebrating my 25th year as a Cosmetologist. In 2018, my family and I moved to Colorado, and achieved our vision of owning a salon in Golden. I have loved fashion and styling hair since I was a little girl and am grateful that my passion evolved into a career. I love making an impact on my client’s day and connecting with them on a personal level, I also carry the passion that goes into mastering the craft. My biggest satisfaction is creating beautiful, unique styles and my clients’ smiles. When I am not in the salon you can find me mountain biking, hiking, skiing and spending time with my family.

Specialty – men’s fading, custom cuts and blondes. Also great in working with fragile hair.

Going on 11 years behind the chair. Ever since being a little girl I felt a calling to do hair. When I was in 7th grade my teacher paid me for haircut. Now a days I enjoy the challenges for creating my clients vision of their hair.

My motto is – Always learning, Always growing !!!

Outside of work I love showing my son the living world. I love to climb, ski, raft and listen to live music.

Hope to meet you soon !

I was born and raised in Golden. I’ve had a passion for hair and nails all my life and am starting my 17th year in the industry. I love being creative and keeping up the ever-changing hair and nail trends. I enjoy creating custom hairstyles for men, women as well as children. I am also skilled in the application of I-Tip and Tape-In hair extensions. In addition to my hair services, I also provide relaxing manicures and pedicures. I love building lasting relationships with my clients and their families. I enjoy pampering people and making them feel the most beautiful version of themselves.

Kelsey Buteau – Cosmetologist

Specialty-blonding, balayage and colors

I am a hairstylist because I want to make everyone happy! It is so special to me to see a client exited and smiling about the looks I created. I want all my clients to leave feeling like they have the perfect hair. I’m very excited to be working at VAIA Salon and to get to know the Golden community.

I like to spend all my free time outside enjoying Colorado. I love to ski, hike, run, rock climb, camp and travel.

Violet Salter – Cosmetologist

Specialty – Hair color, with a particular love for dimensional color  

 

I’ve had a passion for all things beauty for as long as I can remember, and becoming a hairstylist has allowed me to turn that passion into a career I love. I specialize in hair color, with a particular love for dimensional color that brings depth and movement to every look. My favorite part of the job is helping people feel confident and beautiful—there’s nothing better than seeing someone light up after a fresh color or style. Whether you’re looking for a subtle change or a bold transformation, I’m here to bring your vision to life.

When I’m not doing hair, I’m probably outside—camping, hiking, or skiing. I also love live music, thrifting, and hanging out at home with my cat.

Sarah Jennings – Cosmetologist

Specialty – blonding, dimensional color and women’s precision haircuts
 

I’ve been behind the chair for 24 years, and for 16 of those years, I’ve called Golden my home. My passion has always been creating beautiful, confidence-boosting looks that make people feel incredible—inside and out.
I  love creating fresh, tailored cuts for women and men. I’m certified in tape-in and I-tip hair extensions, allowing me to add fullness, length, or subtle volume to elevate any style. 

I also love styling hair for weddings, special events, and updos—being part of someone’s important day is one of the most rewarding parts of what I do.
Whether you’re craving a bold transformation or a natural enhancement, my goal is to listen, collaborate, and bring your vision to life while keeping your hair healthy and radiant. 

Outside of work I love supporting my son’s passion of Motocross. But also love hanging out with my family and my 3 adorable poodles!
