Owner & Certified Trichologist, IAT

@sarathetrichologist

At Âme, my mission is to provide innovative, non-surgical hair restoration solutions that help individuals regain confidence and improve scalp health. As the founder and owner, I specialize in treating hair loss and scalp conditions through cutting-edge technologies and holistic wellness strategies.

With a deep understanding of the factors contributing to thinning hair, excessive shedding, and scalp imbalances, I integrate advanced therapies such as Alma TED, scalp detoxification, and customized trichology treatments to support long-term hair health. My approach goes beyond surface-level care—I focus on identifying the root causes of hair loss and addressing them with science-backed, non-invasive solutions.

In November 2024, I expanded my expertise by completing Level 1 of the Integrative Health Practitioner Institute, further enhancing my ability to assess internal health factors that contribute to hair and scalp issues and to better provide recommendations and referrals when necessary.

Âme is more than a salon—it’s a space dedicated to hair and scalp wellness. I am committed to helping my clients navigate their hair restoration journey with personalized solutions and education.

When I’m not at Âme, I enjoy spending time outdoors with my growing family and continuing to learn about the evolving science of trichology and holistic wellness.

I’ve always wanted to impact people’s lives in a positive way. At 22, I was a hair model for a cute salon in Orange County, CA. This experience left me feeling so beautiful and special — I knew it was something I wanted to share with others and I strive to create that same experience for each of my guests.

I improve my craft on a daily basis by surrounding myself with like-minded people who vibrate at a higher- level of consciousness. This creates an environment that's supportive and it's what has led me to Âme Salon.

I enjoy taking the time to listen to my guests' concerns and goals for their hair. This exchange of ideas is the first step in making every individual feel beautiful.

My name is Elana. I began my career in New York City at Paul Labrecque. After eight years, I decided it was time for a change of scenery and style so I moved across the country to the west coast. I landed in Downtown LA, where I received in-depth training for curly haircuts and styling.

More than anything, I enjoy making people happy — my favorite part of the work that I do is the big reveal at the end and seeing the expression on my client's face. I'm inspired to do what I do each day because of my love for art and working with my hands. I love creating and learning about new techniques and trends, and I believe hair offers the perfect balance between art and craft.

At Âme, I look forward to changing people’s lives through the various color and cutting techniques that I've gained along my journey.
