Meet Scarling and Alexa: Highlights, Balayage and Blowouts

The Cutting Edge Hair Design

Some of the freshest work coming out of our Commack salon is from Scarling and Alexa, two of our rising stylists, and their books are filling up fast. They are the stylists to know if you want current, modern hair with a stylist who is genuinely excited to be behind the chair. Here is what they do best and how to book with them.

Fresh, Modern Color

Color is where Scarling and Alexa shine. They create bright, blended highlights and balayage with the kind of soft, seamless grow-out everyone is asking for, no harsh regrowth line and no flat, stripy result. They are meticulous about tone, finishing with a glaze so your color reads clean and expensive rather than brassy. Just as importantly, they protect the health of your hair through every lift, because color that looks good but feels fried is not a win. Every appointment starts with a real conversation about your hair, your routine and your goals.

Blowouts and Cuts That Actually Last

Need to look pulled together in a hurry? Both are known for signature blowouts that hold their shape and bounce for days, finished with Moroccanoil for shine and movement. They also handle fresh haircuts and everyday styling, the reliable, feel-good hair that fits real life. If you have an event coming up, they can build a look that lasts from the first photo to the last dance.

Trained by Our Senior Team

Scarling and Alexa did not learn in a vacuum. They train alongside our senior stylists every day, in a salon that is a certified Ouidad Curly Hair Salon and home to Babe Certified extension artists. They pursue ongoing education in the latest cutting, coloring and styling techniques, so what you get is fresh and current, held to the same standard as everyone at The Cutting Edge. As they grow, you get to grow with them.

Why Book a Rising Stylist

Two reasons. First, availability, newer stylists often have more openings, so it is easier to book a time that actually fits your week. Second, energy, they bring real enthusiasm and the most current training to every service. You are getting talented, mentored hands and a stylist building something they care about. Meet Scarling and Alexa on our team page and find the one who fits your goals.
