Being part of the One Shot Hair Awards has played a major role in shaping my career and pushing my work to a global standard. With thousands of artists entering from around the world each year, it’s one of the most competitive and respected platforms in the industry.

In 2024, I placed Top 25 in the Platinum Blonde category, and in 2025, I returned to place Top 25 again in Cool Balayage. Being recognized at that level, alongside some of the most influential artists in the industry, reflects the intention and consistency behind my work.

As a Redken Artist, my work is built on more than just what I create behind the chair—it’s also about what I share.

Redken aligns with the way I approach hair: intentional, elevated, and detail-driven. It allows me to create the soft, seamless, lived-in colour I’m known for—hair that is effortless, looks expensive, and grows out beautifully.

At the same time, education is a huge part of my career. Through Redken, I’m able to teach, mentor, and share my approach with other stylists—breaking down technique, refining skills, and elevating the standard of work in the industry.

For me, it’s about both sides—creating and educating. Through Redken, I’m able to share my approach with other stylists, while continuing to learn and grow within a community that values both artistry and knowledge.

The People & Brands I Align With

My work has connected me with artists and brands across the world, shaping both my technique and my vision behind the chair. One of the most influential connections has been with Kim Haberley, founder of Boho Blonde and one of the most recognized blonding educators in the industry.

I’ve also had the opportunity to connect and collaborate with brands that reflect my style and standards, including Molly Vie, Ape the Label, and Nysara Hair.

These connections go beyond names—they represent a shared level of artistry and intention. Being part of a global network keeps my work evolving, trend-aware, and elevated, while staying true to what I’m known for: blended, effortless, dream hair with a luxury finish.

More Than Hair

Outside of the salon, I’m naturally drawn to anything that feels effortless, sun-soaked, and a little bit elevated. The beach has always been a big part of that for me—the colours, the textures, and beauty. I love collecting seashells, being around the water, and surrounding myself with crystals—things that feel grounding, calming, and inspiring all at the same time.

My family is originally from the Czech Republic, and that part of me has shaped the way I see beauty in a deeper way. There’s an appreciation for detail, individuality, and subtlety that I’ve carried with me, and I think that naturally shows up in my work. I’ve always been drawn to things that aren’t overdone—things that feel intentional, refined, and true to the person

I also love staying active, especially through beach volleyball. It gives me that balance outside of work—something fun, energizing, and social. Traveling is another huge inspiration for me. Seeing different places, styles, and cultures constantly influences how I see colour, fashion, and overall aesthetic.

Fashion plays a big role in my life as well. I’m always paying attention to textures, tones, and trends—but in a way that still feels wearable and timeless. I’m drawn to pieces and looks that feel effortless but elevated, which is exactly how I approach hair.

At the end of the day, everything connects. The way I live, what I’m drawn to, and what inspires me all translate into the work I create. It’s always about that same feeling—
soft, natural, effortless, and elevated.
