About Our Stylists

Sammie

Samantha “Sammie” McGee, a beacon of beauty nestled in the heart of Wilmington, Born with scissors in hand, she proudly carries the legacy of a salon dynasty that adorned Wrightsville Beach for over three decades. It seems the apple doesn’t fall far from the beauty chair; Sammie’s journey in the hair industry, now spanning a glorious 17 years, was kindled beneath the watchful eyes of her grandmother, the original maven of mane.

Crowned as Wilmington’s finest hairstylist three times, in 2014, 2018, and 2019, Sammie’s talents are no secret to the locals. Previously a Unite Educator, sprinkling a little extra sparkle on salons far and wide with the gospel according to UNITE products. Her global escapades include mentoring stylists at UNITE’s Global Sessions in  San Diego, a testament to her belief in growth and the pursuit of hair excellence.

Sammie’s skill set is as versatile as her hair color palette, specializing in everything from transformative color and balayage, to precision cuts for both men and women, not to mention her unparalleled prowess in blondes, and her thriving wedding business, where she weaves dreams into reality for brides-to-be.  

Blending families like she blends colors, Sammie and her partner, Richard, navigate the joys and jests of life with her adorable daughter Lillianna, his sons, Ethan and Jaxon, and a bustling brood of fur babies, her home is a heartwarming chaos of love and laughter.

Marissa

I am Marissa Clark. I completed my studies at the Aveda Institute for Cosmetology and Atlanta Beauty and Barbering for Barbering in Atlanta, Georgia. After working in a large city, I opted to return to North Carolina for a quieter coastal town lifestyle and pursue a Business Associate’s degree. 

Over the last several years, I have developed a strong passion for hair, dedicating myself to honing my skills and building relationships within the community. I specialize in working with blonde hair and short cuts, while also appreciating the creative aspect of long layered cuts and different colors. When I’m not at the salon, I enjoy being active in various sports and spending time with my dogs. 

Community is a priority for me, and living in a gorgeous beach town enhances that experience even more. I am excited to assist all my clients in reaching their hair goals and embracing their most beautiful selves.

Katie

My name is Katie Crawley. I’ve been a stylist for almost 15 years! I worked in Durham for half my career and have made Wilmington home the past 8 years! I married my amazing husband on Halloween of 2020. We recently welcomed a baby girl to the excitement of her big brother and other fur siblings! We love traveling and hunting vintage treasures down wherever we go!

As a stylist I love all aspects of hair from sculpted cuts to vibrant color and everything in between! While I love bright playful colors I put just as much customization into my natural color clients as well. I am always open to new ideas on where you would like your hair journey to take you! People always ask me if I like to cut or color more and I always tell them both! Your art would not be as beautiful on a tattered canvas. So why put it on one!?
