Raquel Rodriguez

Stylist

Raquel is our up and coming stylist here at Kreate! She has worked through our intense Kreate Education program to build a career for herself at our salon. She started doing hair in 2017 and working closely with Ken early in her career has set her up with an amazing skill set along with a great client base. She sees a wide variety of guests and her love for each and every one of them shows in her work and her attitude. Today, we want to congratulate Raquel on how far she has come. She has achieved amazing things and because of her hard work she is being promoted!

You may ask how do you get promoted as a hair stylist? When a stylist continuously beats their goals and hits every benchmark, like Raquel has this year, they deserve to be rewarded! There are several levels of stylist starting at New Talent 1 going all the way up to Elite Stylist. Raquel is moving up to the next level as a New Talent 3! This means that she will soon earn the title of Signature Stylist and finish her fellowship program here at Kreate. Her promotion includes a price increase that will set Raquel up for even more success in her career! This is an amazing step for any stylist and we hope she continues to grow in to the incredible stylist we know that she is!

Raquel has reached this milestone in her career by continuing her education. Our partnership with Aveda has given her the opportunities and resources to continue to learn and grow as a professional. Not only is she trained in Aveda color but she has completed many virtual classes along with self-guided learning through Aveda. She has attended the virtual Texture Talk with Renee Gardar to expand her knowledge on working with different hair types. She has also completed classes on the NEW Nutriplenish and Botanical Repair lines with Aveda. She has gained badges on Aveda Pure Pro through self guided education such as the Cherry Almond Champion Badge, the Know It All badge and the Star Product Expert badge. Raquel is also Keratin certified and has recently received training in Easi Length Professional Hair Extensions and now offers this service!

Congratulations Raquel! Call today to book with her!
