I’m Yesenia, and I’m driven by a constant desire to learn, grow, and perfect every detail of the guest experience. I am relentless about refining my skills at The Strand and staying ahead of the latest techniques. I have a particular niche in event braiding and styling for weddings; I love the technical challenge of intricate braids and the rewarding energy of being part of a client’s most important moments. My goal is to create a relaxed, high-end environment where you feel completely taken care of and comfortable from start to finish.

In my personal time, you’ll likely find me scouting the latest fashion trends or exploring Chattanooga with my black lab, Pantera. I’m always ready to talk style, clothes, and the best local shopping spots so if you’re a fellow fashion enthusiast, we’ll have plenty to chat about while you’re in the salon.
