Dianna
Owner, Mentor Stylist/Master Colorist
Life is too short NOT to do what you love, and I am doing just that. I thrive on growing, learning, and perfecting, but it doesn't stop there. My passion is for sharing everything I know and mentoring the stylists in the salon. We take every stylist through 12 weeks of classes, then follow with an apprenticeship where they learn all things Dianna Curtis Salon. By the time our stylists reach the floor, they are well prepared to offer excellent care and outstanding hair services to their guests. Then, it only gets better from there! I am excited for our guests to get to know our team, and so proud of the beautiful work they do! It is my dream that every person coming into the salon leaves looking and feeling better than when they first came.

UP & COMING...
When a new cosmetologist comes to our salon, they begin our 12 week training program. We go through blow dry & styling, Vidal Sassoon hair cutting, Wella theory & formulation and product use & knowledge. Everyone learns in class on models. In addition to the 12 weeks of classes, apprentices spend 3 months under the mentorship of our stylists where they spend their days shadowing or assisting in our salon. This is when they see what they have learned put into practice in a day to day setting , They also have time to settle into the culture at Dianna Curtis Salon. During their internship, an apprentice can take appointments as a Junior Stylist, offering services at a reduced cost while perfecting their skills.
For more information or if you are interested in scheduling with one of our Junior stylists, please call/text 317-649-4247(HAIR).
