Owner

Hi babes! Mandy here! With the support of my husband, Shane, I entered the hairdressing world in 2002.  From the time I was a little girl I knew this was my calling.  Being surrounded by brothers & raised by my dad (something I am sooo proud of) I was blown away when first introduced to a curling iron!  


What I didn’t know is that I would open a salon home that would be a staple in Central AR for years to come.


My purpose in this industry has naturally evolved…Not only do I LOVE beautiful, healthy hair (God knows I do)- I have a passion for elevating the beauty industry for stylists!  


I want to encourage others to DREAM BIG, let us guide you along the way & then go for it!  I LOVE breaking barriers & doing the unexpected!  I love being a part of new ways of thinking in our industry!.


Our team even has the opportunity to opt in to health care benefits as well as vacation pay which is essentialy unheard of in this industry.  My life consists of 2 stinky boys, designing homes with my hubby, continuously planning a trip (where next!?) & experiencing nature in all its forms.  & please.  GIVE ME ALL THE SUNSHINE.

Hey y’all! I’ve been a stylist since 2013 and with Swank since 2017! My purpose as a stylist is to create and give my clients the best version of their hair that they can dream up!

There's nothing better than seeing their faces light up afterwards!

I absolutely love cuts ( bobs and pixies are my jam), all things color, and blonding!


I not only get to express my passion through my creativity with hair, but am a mentor to up and coming stylists who join our fam! Education is one of my biggest passions in the industry, it’s SO rewarding teaching others and watching them succeed!

Within our Swank space, we draw our inspiration from the beauty that God created around us.  From partnering only with brands that use botanically based ingredients in our care & styling lines as well as our products used for coloring & treating hair….to the lively plants we fill our studio with, our creative hearts, all the way to how we promote our stylists within our company. 

Gemstones are insanely unique & beautiful. Each with their own components that make them individually what they were created to be. Reflecting light, color, energy & beauty all around them.  

For this reason, as a stylist advances in their journey, they are given a gemstone as a musing for their position within Swank.
