JUNIOR TALENT TEAM
Maile Foli
JUNIOR TALENT
Born and raised in Carlsbad, I attended Bellus Academy in Poway and completed my bachelorâs degree in communication at California State University San Marcos. I became passionate about hairstyling because I wanted a career where I could stay social, creative, and on my feet while helping people feel confident in their natural beauty. My specialties include haircuts and relaxing head massages, and Iâve been behind the chair for about a year now. Outside of the salon, I enjoy surfing, hiking, mountain biking, and making pottery. Iâd describe myself as a lifelong student, bubbly, and creative.
