Kelsey Hulse is a passionate stylist dedicated to helping guests achieve their dream hair while maintaining the health and integrity of their hair every step of the way. A graduate of Paul Mitchell, Kelsey began her career in 2023 and has quickly developed a reputation for her creativity, attention to detail, and commitment to guest education.

Kelsey specializes in custom color, blonding services, precision haircuts, and vivid fashion colors. Whether a guest is looking for a seamless blonde transformation, a dimensional custom color, or a bold, vibrant new look, she enjoys creating personalized results that reflect each individual's style and personality.

Prior to joining Mercer Hair Studio, Kelsey refined her skills at Tabula Rasa, where she gained valuable experience behind the chair and further developed her passion for the beauty industry. One of her greatest strengths is communication—she loves educating guests throughout the process, helping them understand how to care for their hair and maintain their results between appointments.

Kelsey's goal with every guest is to create beautiful, customized hair while prioritizing long-term hair health. She believes that great results come from collaboration, trust, and a thoughtful approach tailored to each guest's needs and lifestyle.

When she's not in the salon, Kelsey enjoys line dancing, shopping, reading, and spending time with her pets. And while she's not a fan of heights, one adventure remains firmly on her bucket list: skydiving.

Whether you're dreaming of a bright blonde, a custom color refresh, a vivid transformation, or a fresh new haircut, Kelsey is excited to help you achieve a look you'll love while keeping your hair healthy and strong.
