@jessicabowlandhair
Jessica is a master stylist who’s been in the industry for over 20 years. An H.B. local and mom of two, she has made continued education a priority throughout her career, continually expanding her knowledge to better serve her clients.
Known for creating lived-in sun-kissed color and grey blending. Jessica loves finishing each look with a customized haircut that works with her client’s natural texture and lifestyle.
Her passion for hair has also led her into the world of trichology. As a certified Trichology Practitioner through the International Association of Trichologists, Jessica focuses on scalp and hair health, helping clients better understand the factors that can affect their hair and scalp.
Through trichology, she’s passionate about bridging the gap between the salon and scalp health, combining years of hands-on experience behind the chair with evidence-informed education and a personalized approach to hair and scalp concerns.
Whether you’re looking for your signature lived-in color or want to better understand what’s happening with your hair and scalp, Jessica brings the same goal to every appointment: helping you feel confident in your hair, from the scalp to the ends.

At a very young age I knew I wanted to do hair. In high school, I got my first job working at a hair salon as a receptionist and my fondness for the industry grew from there. After graduating high school I continued working the front desk while going to cosmetology school. Once I graduated I assisted the owners until I was finally ready to go on my own. I’ve always had a dream of opening a Salon and am so happy to have done it with my long-time co-worker and friend Jessica. I am constantly working on perfecting my craft and love creating beautiful natural-looking colors and haircuts.

I grew up in Huntington Beach and have a profound love for my community! When the opportunity came for me to assist Shannon at Moxie, I knew it would be a great fit. I was blessed to find such a talented mentor who allowed me to learn the ins and outs of hair color, cutting and extensions. Coming from a Hispanic family and fluent in Spanish, I’ve been able to gain a lot experience with that specific hair type, but I am eager to venture out and master all hair types and textures.
My passion and specialty is in dimensional brunettes, lived in color, and layered haircuts. I look forward to making all my guests feel welcomed and leave the salon looking fabulous!
When I am not behind the chair I love to be at the beach , on a long hike exploring new places, and spending time with my friends and family.
Specialty: Dimensional Brunettes, Curly and Layered Haircuts

I was born and raised in the Bay Area and have always had a love for all things beauty related. I am passionate about creating a safe and welcoming environment for my clients to feel their absolute best. I love blonding and dimensional/lived in color. When I’m not behind the chair, you can find me working at my other job as a barista, at pilates, on a run, or grabbing a drink with friends.

From a young age, I knew that I wanted to pursue a career in cosmetology, and I have been working in salons since I was seventeen. My top priorities are making sure my clients leave looking and feeling their absolute best, while also staying up-to-date with the latest trends through continuing education.
Born and raised in Southern California, I have a deep love for the beach and spending time with my family when I'm not behind the chair.

Shannon V.
Stylist
Accepting new clients.
My passion for hair began in high school while I was on the dance team, doing hair and makeup for competitions. That's when I realized this was the career I wanted to pursue.
Now, with over 20 years of experience behind the chair, I've refined my craft and love helping clients achieve hair that fits both their lifestyle and personal style. Whether you're looking for a low-maintenance color, want to embrace your grays with seamless blending rather than full coverage, or are dreaming of the perfect sun-kissed blonde, I'm committed to creating a look that's beautiful, personalized, and easy to maintain.
I also enjoy cutting men's and kids' hair, from classic scissor cuts and clean clipper fades to fresh beard trims. No matter who's in my chair, my goal is to help every client leave feeling confident and looking their best.
Outside of the salon you can find me enjoying quality time with friends, cooking, or exploring new coffee shops in the area.
