Meet the members of the Badlands Education team.
Heather (she/her)
Heather is the creator of Badlands Education and the owner of Badlands Hair Studio located in Bend, Oregon. After a successful 17 years behind the chair, she now spends her days training, coaching, and creating hair/business curriculum. Learn more about Heather’s journey and the start of Badlands Education over on our ABOUT page.
Luke (he/him)
Luke is one of those stylists who is always striving for perfection. Is perfection in hairdressing achievable? Probably not… however his tenacity has led to MASSIVE professional growth in a very short amount of time (e.g. his haircut price nearly tripling in 2 1/2 years). Luke is a hairstylist and educator at Badlands Hair Studio in Bend, Oregon.
Jonae (she/her)
Jonae has an infectious energy about her that makes every client immediately want to be her friend. 🙂 She also has the drive and work ethic unlike any stylist we’ve ever met, which led to her becoming one of Bend Oregon’s top curly hair specialists in record breaking time. Jonae is a hairstylist and educator at Badlands Hair Studio, but you can often find her cheering humans on inside our online community, Hair Club.

Abby is the rad human who designed, created, and delivered our Inclusivity Training for Badlands Education (*available for FREE via the Programs link). They are currently finishing up tailoring school (with the goal of creating gender affirming clothing) and is also the salon coordinator at Badlands Hair Studio in Bend, Oregon.
