@erin.boha on the ‘gram
Owner and creator Erin BonneyHassell is an award-winning 13-year veteran stylist, with a signature style that keeps her chair full and her heart happy. She’s a Certified Beauty Coach from Nine One Zero - Riawna Capri and Nikki Lee known for her lived-in bright blondes (aka Carolina Blonde) and texturized cutting.
“If you’ve ever sat in my chair you've seen how detail-oriented I can be! I like to create natural lived-in blondes, so I focus on strategic placement of light and depth for long-lasting results.”
Her meticulous attitude has paid off, with recognitions from top-tier publications in the industry. Erin’s a two-time nominee for Behind The Chair One Shot Awards (check the receipts here and here), the winner of Modern Salons Bob Lob Contest in 2017, named one of Modern Salon’s Top 100 Stylists of 2020, featured in Read the Tease, on BehindTheChair, R+Co, Samvilla, Hairbrained Official, Masters of Balayage — and that’s just the highlight reel!
Erin opened the doors to BoHa Studio in 2017 to create a space for stylists to create, grow, and inspire.
“What excites me the most about the work I do is being able to use my creative abilities to make someone feel beautiful.”

Samantha’s signature vivid colors are just as vibrant as her bubbly personality. Behind the chair, she’s best known for bold colors, short cuts, blonding, redheads, and formal styling. Her work has even been featured on Behind The Chair and Pulp Riot. Samantha’s favorite thing?
“It’s all about the transformations!”
With more than 11 years under her belt, she’s in love with her clients and the craft. “I’ll remember the most random information about you!” A visit with Samantha is like a hair-apy session you don’t want to end!
hair artist — chas

Chas has loved hair from a young age. No, really! She was the go-to girl for braids, sun-in highlights, or totally changing your look. Today, not much has changed! (Minus the sun-in highlights.) Chas has officially been licensed in her calling for more than 12 years, with a license from BCC Cosmetology Program and 3 years of training with Aveda, 8 hours with Salt Society, and a Brazilian Blowout Certification. Chas’ work has been featured in Slaying the Hair Game, EISS, and @thecultivatedstylist.
Looking for low-low maintenance vibes? Chas is best-known for lived-in blondes and brunettes.
“I love a look that grows out beautifully and seamlessly.”
Above all, there are 3 things that excite her most about what she does: (1) the hair (mixing, creating, formulating!), (2) the connection (crossing paths with amazing and unique people), and (3) the education (she loves any opportunity to hone and grow her skills).
Her tip for first-time clients?
“Bring ALL the inspo pics + an open mind.”

hair artist — TORI
@hairbytori_nc on the ‘gram
Tori is known for her epic extensions, with a JZ Styles Master Certification in Hair Extensions. She is also an OLAPLEX Certified hair artist. Her fellow #bohababes love that she’s always super genuine, relatable, and charismatic — and if you’ve ever sat in her chair you would definitely agree.
“MY FAVORITE THING ABOUT WHAT i DO IS GETTING TO MEET NEW PEOPLE!”
Tori really digs into her clients’ lifestyle before recommending styles and changes. She values honesty and authenticity over everything, and she’s a whiz with extensions (just look at these gorgeous blends!). So, if you’re looking to reach new lengths, Tori is your girl. (P.S. She’s skilled at cutting, styling, coloring + updos, too!)
