Continuing her training, Kendra assisted a top stylist to hone and perfect her skills behind the chair.

Her trained eye helps design cutting styles which achieve these superior results.
Clients describe Kendra as “innovative, creative, attentive to individual needs”. They add, “she listens to what you ask for” and “she has an eye for what will suit you”.
When we asked Kendra to comment on her philosophy she stated, “I believe that investing in yourself and your hair is necessary to being your most confident self and putting your best foot forward in life.

Scott Foltz
A gifted hairdresser and makeup artist, Scott has been in the hair industry since 1999. He is a former Cosmetic Art Team member of Toni and Guy. Currently, he is the Creative Director for Mirror Call Cosmetics (here at AZENZA).
Scott places great value on training, evidenced by his extensive training including Toni and Guy in Dallas, Texas; with Vidal Sassoon in London, England; with Pivot Point in Chicago; and finally with Temptu Cosmetics in New York City.
Scott’s best work is found on his clients he has come to know. These clients can literally tell him, “Do what you want” and know the result will be something new and exciting while still maintaining their goals, style and personality. Scott enjoys precision cuts and loves shattered, loose creative cutting. Scott describes the ideal client as someone looking for a long-term hairdresser who can grow and customize their evolving style throughout the years.
Scott is constantly inspired by runway, magazine and Hollywood. His favorite celebrity inspirations are Drew Barrymore, Gwen Steffani and Victoria Beckham. His favorite product is DermOrganics Argon Oil. This product creates shine, smoothness and protection from the blow dryer. It’s great for prepping the hair for any look, length and texture. Scott loves to finish with a cool shot from the blow dryer to give more shine, smoothness and fluff.
Ultimately, Scott would love to work on more photo shoots creating hair and makeup looks that help inspire others.
