Our Stylists

Meet Bridget, Head Stylist and owner of the CVAC Salon, who turned her passion for hair design into a successful career, graduating with honors from Pivot Point flagship school and training with leading brands such as Wella, Swartzkopf, and Alterna.

Bridget’s love for hair design began when she was a little girl. Bridget grew up watching her mom’s stylist friend and was captivated by watching her cut and style hair. But her fate to become a stylist became evident when she was given an adorable teddy bear, which she decided needed a haircut–Fuzzy wasn’t fuzzy anymore, but the desire to make people look beautiful was growing inside her. As the third of seven children, she began cutting and styling all her sibling’s hair and finally chose this as her career.

Bridget graduated with honors from the official Pivot Point flagship school under the careful watch of Pivot Point International’s founder, world-renowned Leo Passage. Next door were the men and women who wrote the course books, and they frequently visited the students to make sure the quality of their work was nothing less than the best. While in Chicago, Bridget interned at Art and Science, named best salon by Fox News Chicago and salon of Ryan Adams and Pete Yorn.

Bridget is Wella trained in color formulation, Swartzkopf trained in color education, and Alterna trained in product knowledge.

Bridget returned to Carmel in 2008
