CARMEN HERGES

Stylist, Extension Specialist & Leadership Director

I always knew the beauty industry was the place for me. I graduated a year early in high school as a junior, just so I could start my career faster. When I was 16, all my hard work actually won me a full-ride scholarship to Regency Beauty Institute in Champaign, IL. In May of 2016, I was blessed with the opportunity to work at Something You Salon & Spa. While I was still finishing school, I had the honor to train under Amanda, and I learned so much including specialized cutting such as razor cutting and curly hair techniques.

Since graduating beauty school in September of 2016, I’ve been through many top education courses through Aveda, taught by some of the best. These classes have taught me advanced techniques in hair cutting and coloring, and also have earned a training/management position here at Something You. 

I specialize in creating custom hair colors, ranging from loud, fun fashion colors to subtle lived-in color. Along with textured razor cuts, trendy bobs, and special occasion hair and makeup. I am also certified in fusion and tape-in hair extensions.

It’s my passion in life to make people fall in love with themselves and feel confident and happy. I look forward to meeting you soon!
