Hair and Makeup by Ashley Cook

Cheers to 3 years with a bestie!! I've officially been at .kcsalon for 3 years, can you believe it?! Here's to the years to come... we talked about plans to come, and I can't wait to share our goals with you all in 2026!!

Just a little bleach and a dream 💫

This color literally gave me cuteness aggression. Do any other artists geek out this hard over the work they love?? Let me know!

Shoutout to for being truly one of my favorite clients and people. He's also the creative genius behind almost every tattoo on my body 😍.

Dimension for dayyyyyyzzz

Allow me to reintroduce myself, for anyone who hasn't seen me in awhile...

My name is Ashley, I've been a licensed hairstylist since 2011. I have also been a makeup artist since 2015/6. My passions as an artist include large scale color corrections, fantasy hair color, and honestly helping to minister to my clients by helping them see value in themselves.

Fun facts: Yes, My hair will most likely look different every time you see me. I am learning to play the harmonica simply because someone left one at the salon FOREVER ago, and my spirit animal is a raccoon, for better and for worse 😅

Gray blending with some silver highlights, and a purple halo color block to keep it fun 💜

Spice up your Life!

The Root Sisters Band. I've never been more proud to be in cohorts with a group of women as I am of this group of total babes.

I've been saving this haircolor for Valentine's Day, because I'm in LOVE ❤️ with how it turned out!!

Thanks to for trusting me and being an amazing first time client, I can't wait to create more projects for you!!

I'm a few days late, but december 12th marked 2 years since I took a leap of faith and followed to her new salon down the street from my salon suite. What a roller coaster it has been over the last two years with professionally and personally! But honestly, this girl has become such a friend and support system, and I can't imagine not being at Wild Roots.KC with you. I'm glad I get to be one of your salon husbands 😅😘

Salon Christmas party with the Wild Roots.KC ladies. We successfully got Sara to wear festive Christmas gear, so I'd say it was a win overall. I love these girls so much and would do dang near anything for each of them. Thanks for always supporting me, even when I'm a feral raccoon.

Our elves brought cookies from the North Pole last night!

I am posting this to shout out a long-time friend of mine who makes custom cookies, and supplied us with this ADORABLE cookie kit for the elves!! The kit even included the mini sprinkles, rolling pin, and the note... isn't it literally the cutest?!?!

For real, if you need cookies made for anything, Nicole is your girl. Go like her page. She's honestly more of a cookie artist.
