HAIR COLOR SPECIALIST
MY SPECIALTIES
When it comes to color, these are the areas where my craft is strongest and where I love to push my artistry. These three specialties define my approach and the results I’m known for.
1
BALAYAGE & HAIR PAINTING
I hand-paint balayage highlights to give your hair soft dimension and a seamless blend. This technique mimics the way the sun naturally lightens your hair, so the result feels lived-in and grows out beautifully without harsh lines.
2
RED HAIR
Whether you want a subtle copper glow or a bold, rich auburn, red hair deserves special attention. I love customizing shades that look natural, enhance your features, and stay vibrant over time.
3
LOW-MAINTENANCE COLOR
Your hair should look great long after you leave the salon. I design color with grow-out in mind, so it continues to look intentional and flattering without the stress of constant touch-ups.
ABOUT ME
My approach to color is simple: It should enhance your natural beauty, fit your lifestyle, and never feel high-maintenance.
I see hair color as something that should fit your life, not complicate it. My approach is rooted in hair painting, a refined technique of balayage that lets me create color that grows out gracefully and feels natural from the start. I love working with blondes, redheads, and anyone who wants hair that looks beautiful without a lot of fuss.
For me, the goal is effortless beauty: soft, lived-in color that enhances who you are and lasts beyond the salon. Whether you’re looking for something subtle or a full transformation, I focus on creating hair that feels easy and timeless.

“I had such a great experience with Evan! I wanted to enhance my natural blonde with a touch of brightness while keeping things low maintenance, and he totally got it. The result feels effortless and elevated, precisely what I had in mind. Evan is incredibly attentive and detail-oriented, and it really shows in his work.
He's a true artist, not just with hair, but also an incredible photographer, which makes total sense once you see how he approaches color and style. Plus, he's just a genuinely lovely person to spend time with. I'll definitely be back and would 100% recommend him to anyone thinking about updating their color.”
LAURA CRIPE, CHICAGO, IL
“I've been going to Evan for my hair colour for at least two years now and I can't recommend him enough. I get compliments on my hair colour all the time. He makes it look so natural that most people assume it's my colour - not easy to do with red! He's also a lovely person, who is always professional and punctual and flexible. Look forward to seeing him every month!”
JESS SALOMON, NYC
“Evan is absolutely the best. I was hoping to brighten up my natural blonde/strawberry for the first time while still maintaining a low maintenance style that looked like me. I could not be more excited about the outcome and absolutely will be coming back to Evan for any and all future appointments.
He was incredibly attentive and worked so hard to get every detail just right. And he is just an all-around wonderful person, which made the experience truly a joy. Would recommend anyone looking to play around with their color to go see Evan!”
AUDREY LITVAK, CHICAGO, IL
“Evan is incredible! I’ve been eager to go blonde for years but was worried as a lifelong brunette with finer hair. Evan spent so much time and care easing my concerns, making sure I loved my color and felt good about how to manage care afterwards. I’ve already gotten so many compliments and my friends note how gorgeous the blend is. Go see Evan! He’s so talented and kind.”
MAGGIE COURTER, CHICAGO, IL
“I took the plunge of going red with Evan in February 2020, and I dare say I may never go back. I wanted more than anything for the red to look natural (I really wanted to trick people into thinking I was born a redhead) and Evan almost did too good of a job, people feel downright betrayed when I tell them I'm not a natural redhead. I LOVE IT! Not only is Evan an absolute artist when it comes to hair color, he is a pleasure to talk to. He takes your vision and makes you feel totally safe, cared for, and listened to! Can't recommend him enough, and I get so many compliments on my hair color!!!!!!!! LOVE him!!!”
SAMANTHA NUGENT, NYC
“Beyond thrilled with my balayage! Evan is very attentive and friendly, and he asked about my past hair coloring experiences/likes/dislikes. He perfectly matched what I was hoping for - natural, seamlessly blended, and low maintenance while still noticeably lighter. I couldn't be happier and highly recommend Evan!”
