Level 1 Stylist
Pronouns: She/Her
Hey there! I'm Lizzie, a Colorado native with roots in Vermont. At Color House Denver, your comfort and satisfaction are my top priorities, so please feel free to share your thoughts and feelings with me openly! As a stylist, my mission is to create a welcoming space where everyone can freely express themselves while we work together to bring your hair dreams to life.
While initially pursuing cosmetology school with a focus on makeup artistry, I discovered a deep love and passion for the transformative power of a fantastic hairstyle. I have a special fondness for medium to long length haircuts and creating beautifully blended dimensional colors. That said, I also enjoy experimenting with vibrant fashion colors for those looking to add a playful touch to their look.
When I'm not in the salon, you can often find me engrossed in a good book, expressing myself through writing, or breaking a sweat at the gym. I'm genuinely thrilled at the prospect of meeting you and assisting you in achieving your hair goals. Let's make those dreams a reality together!

Hello, my name is Heather. I was born in Salt Lake City, Utah but raised right here in Littleton, Colorado. I have three dogs, two cats, and am on a never-ending mission to live a sustainable lifestyle. I am passionate about astrology and I love drawing portraits. I am a mother to two wonderful kids and am a spouse to the most amazing woman in the world. Some of my hobbies are being outdoors and going for hikes.
I found my love for hair when I used to braid my sister’s hair for gymnastics meets. I opened a braiding salon at daycare, at the tender age of 10, and I was hooked. I graduated from Empire Beauty School in Littleton, CO. I am inspired by the ’70s and ‘80s hair that has made its way back to today’s culture. My favorite part of my career is creating looks for people that connect them to what beauty means to them. I am very laid back and somewhat of a goofball. My client’s comfort is the most important thing to me!
I am so excited to be a part of Color House Denver and I can’t wait to meet you!

Sierra was a regular artist with Color House Denver but decided to relocate to Tulsa, OK. She will be in Colorado every 3 months or so to offer her hairstyling services. All dates that she will be available will be either posted on our website or via our bi-weekly newsletters. You may also reach out via phone or text to see her availability.
Sierra is a Colorado native who grew up in Conifer. Things like beauty and hair were not as important or popular in the small town she grew up in. It wasn't until she worked in Old Town Littleton as a receptionist at a salon that she discovered just how creative and fun being a hairstylist can be.
Over the course of a year she became fascinated watching the artists cut, color and help people feel confident. That is when her passion sparked and she dropped out of her traditional community college and went to a two year program at the Aveda Institute of Denver.
Now 6 years into the beauty industry, Sierra's main goal is to help clients fall in love with themselves and their hair. In a world where life can be overwhelming and keeping up with the trends can sometimes it be hard, she can help you feel yourself. With her down to earth and charismatic personality she would love to help you find yourself through services such as Balayage, Blonding, Fashion Colors, and Hair Extensions - although Color Touch Ups and Haircuts are fun as well.
Outside of the salon you can find Sierra playing with her two rescue dogs, cooking delicious gluten free foods from TikTok recipes, laughing with friends and family, riding dirt bikes with her boyfriend, relaxing, reading books, enjoying the nice weather when it's warm, and being a hermit when it's cold! No matter where she is you can find her with a smile on her face and most likely giggling her way through life.
