As you peruse the team's backgrounds, you will discover that we value higher education and specialized training. Many of our stylists not only have countless classes and certifications pertaining to innovative color/cutting techniques and the latest hair trends but have completed higher education and studied other fields to compliment their current profession.
Carla thrives on keeping Mizu Salon a well-oiled machine, making sure that each and every team member focuses on growth and harmony. As a stylist and in-salon educator, color formulation and design is her passion, along with brow design. She loves making women feel prettier.
With a strong belief in growth through education and experience, Carla always has ideas brewing in that head of hers, such as Aveda Congress in Minneapolis and Oway’s Ortofficina Experience in Bologna. Carla’s education includes a Bachelor of Science in Business at SJSU, and countless classes and certifications throughout the years from names such as Aveda, Oway, Keratin Complex, Brazilian Blowout, Alpha Parf Precious Nature, Babe extensions and Goldwell.
Because of Carla’s dedication to Mizu Salon, she has managed to mesh her passion for dog rescue within the workplace. As of 2014, her non-profit dog rescue found homes for over 70 dogs through Mizu Salon. Stop by our side door with your precious pups. We always have time for sharing delicious treats.
Amy joined Mizu in November 2011. After taking several years off to care for her young children, Amy decided it was time to get back in the game. Countless Aveda classes and an innate ability to tame, manage, and sculpt unruly hair has hurled Amy to the top. Through all her hard work and tenacity, Amy ranks right up there as one of our busiest Senior Stylist.
Amy has mastered many classes with Aveda, Oway, Keratin Complex, Brazilian Blowout and various combined extension application and management. Aveda Congress in Minneapolis was amazing too.
When not at the Salon, Amy loves shopping at Nordstrom and trotting through the Half Moon Bay Farmer’s Market for fresh quality delights. Her best times are spent caring for her three beautiful sons, super cute baby girl and Penny our daily canine mascot (she can’t stand being left at home).
Rocio graces us with her sweet smile and happy presence. She actually brings sunshine to Mizu Salon when she arrives. We haven’t seen this kind of subtle tenacity during the 17 year history of Mizu. All this and Roci even came with her raw innate talent. We are so very fortunate, as she continues to renew and refine her hair design skills.
College is her immediate future. She loves learning. Secret . . . she would love to practice French with you as she’s taken 4 years of it. Bilingual just doesn’t cut it! Call to make an appointment.
Tyler joined Mizu in 2016. His brilliant mind runs circles around the whole place. Besides his masterful cutting and coloring skills Tyler might just be the wittiest and most sarcastic person in all of Half Moon Bay. We dare you to make an appointment with him.
His education is vast, from Emerson in Boston to SF State, and Aveda Congress in Minneapolis. This stylist has been AROUND! We love laughing and because of him work has become such a perfect playground.
