Interview with Shanelle Lyn Price, Hairstylist Extraordinaire!

Shanelle Lyn PriceI first met Shanelle Lyn Price at the New Years Eve fashion show that I emceed. She took my short doo and curled it up, adding body and fun to it. We became instant friends. Right before I emceed Artopia, she gave me another cut and added some flair as I grow out my short doo. I’m hooked! 

We caught up with Shanelle at her new residency at Henry’s Salon.

Shanelle Lyn PriceWhen did you discover your passion for cutting hair?

I discovered the stylist in me as a young child actually. I did all my friend’s hair and doll’s hair. I loved fashion and hair and makeup.

Did you have formal education or are you self taught? 

IMG_-x48a3rI went to Xenon International School of cosmetology in 2001. I graduated and worked for Charlie Price at Planet Laboratories in Cherry Creek where I discovered my true love for hair and high fashion. I am a master colorist and have training in Aveda, Redken and was an educator for Ibella. I continue my education quarterly which is very important to me. I’m certified through Cinderella Hair Extensions and Brazilian Blowout. I learn everyday from other amazing and talented stylists and honestly by years of experience.

Shanelle Lyn PriceWhat do you find to be the most rewarding in what you do? 

I find the most rewarding thing about my career is waking up everyday and getting to do what I love. I’m extremely passionate about what I do.

What is the most challenging aspect of your job? 

I would say the most challenging is trying to re-create a style that a client wants that isn’t always suiting for them. Getting a client to trust and take my advice and expertise on trying a style I know would suite them better.

Do you specialize in anything in particular? 

I specialize in color and short hair. From A line bobs, to A -symmetrical to funky and stylish pixie cuts. I also love cutting men’s hair.
