Natalia Bolanos

Natalia Bolanos owns CO | OPERATIVE SALON, which she founded in 2015, and works as its specialist. She became a licensed hair stylist at 17 and has worked in the hair industry for more than 20 years. She styled hair for touring musicians, and from about 2007 she worked on hair and makeup for commercials and photo shoots.

Her training includes Bumble and Bumble, Aveda and Toni&Guy. After roughly a year of intensive training in natural beaded rows and extensions, she continued training with Lena Ritz in beaded sewn row. She is now training to become a National Educator for Jack Winn Pro Hair Colour. Before she began teaching her own classes, she took business classes from other stylists.

Her specialties include advanced extension methods, seamless extensions, dimensional color and personalized hair care, along with custom density solutions for thinning hair and hair changes.

She also mentors stylists entering the industry and connects them with other mentors, and she believes dedicated stylists working together can reach high standards of beauty.
