Meet the artists

  • Kayla Eckstein

    Owner, Lead Educator + Stylist

    I’ve been licensed since 2017 and have worked at many salons always knowing my goal was to have a small studio. That dream came and surpassed and now I’ve opened a full service salon. I am extremely passionate about this industry and helping artists grow so I made the salon a place to do just that. Learn, create and collaborate with one another. Teaching other artists has become my second love next to creating my own art and if I’m not working on my own client I’m probably helping my team in one way or another. I am always accepting new guests. My specialties include Lived-In Color, Blondes, Extensions and Haircuts!

  • Hanna Prophet-Watson

    Stylist + Nail Tech

    I’m a licensed cosmetologist based in beautiful Tuolumne County, where I grew up surrounded by the magic of the salon. My journey began as a child watching my mom, and it’s been a growing passion ever since!

    With over six years working in the industry, I’ve honed my skills and I’m here to make your hair and nail dreams a reality! Let’s create something beautiful together!

  • Angelina Howard

    Stylist + Spray Tan Artist

    I’ve been licensed and working at Cove Collective since 2024, specializing in lived-in color, blonding, extensions, and luxury spray tans. When I’m not at the salon, you’ll usually find me traveling, at the beach, snorkeling, or spending time with my high school sweetheart / fiancee. I’m a total animal lover, have a slight Chipotle obsession, and if I wasn’t a hairstylist, I’d probably be a marine biologist. I can’t wait to have you in my chair!

  • Donielle Gonzalez
