Meet Our Denver Hair Stylists
With over 14+ years in the industry Aja started Mae Salon + Wellness in 2017 under the name Chemistry Hair Lab after a diverse career took her from training in Denver, CO with AVEDA, to living and traveling all over the world, and back to Aveda as an Educator years later. When opening MAE it was very important to Aja that she supported a team that could accomplish all they're being called to and that coming to work never felt like a chore. Beyond the team it was very important to her that she built an extended community for the clients we serve. A space where inner beauty shines just as much as outer beauty and where self-care can resonate beyond the beauty industry.

Hi! I’m Emily! I understand most clients are looking for solutions and empowerment when looking for a stylist to work with and I am here to help you find solutions to your hair struggles. Since 2010 I have been helping clients find empowering solutions for their hair and will create a custom hair plan to achieve your goals through low maintenance color and extensions. I am especially skilled with Brondes, Lived in dimensional color, and specialty extensions that are liveable, wearable, and able to be styled any way you'd like from day one.
When I’m not in the salon, you can find me cozying up reading, crafting, baking, or spending time with my husband and fur babies!

Hair design runs in my family and I fell in love with the industry watching my oldest sister work her magic behind the chair. I grew up on the east coast, and have recently moved out this way to explore the mountains!
There are so many aspects of being behind the chair that I love but my favorites include lived-in blonding, rich dimension, and event styling. Don't get me started with weddings, they're my absolute favorite!
When I'm not in the salon, it's safe to assume I'm off on an incredible adventure. Whether it's a trip months in the making or a spontaneous getaway, you'll find me exploring my way through the country and the world!

Hi, I’m Jess! One of my favorite things about being a stylist is my opportunity to get to know the lovely humans that sit in my chair. I strive to create a safe and comfortable space for every client. My goal is to collaborate with you, share my knowledge with you and give you a lovely moment of relaxation and self care. I find ways to make your life a little easier with customized solutions that suit your lifestyle and help you present yourself to the world in the way that feels best to you! From cuts to colors, styles to extensions, every day looks to special occasions, I love it all.I began my life and my career in a small town in west Michigan but I’ve been in Colorado for over 3 years now and I’m having so much fun. Outside of the salon, I have a passion for travel! I love finding new experiences and generally aim to get out in the beauty of nature as much as I can. I have a house plant habit and love any opportunity to interact with plants and animals.
