Ashley McGuckin- Salon Owner
Hi, I’m Ashley, the salon owner of Salt & Light Beauty Collective!
I’ve been in the beauty industry since 2009, I earned my cosmetology license then began working as a shampoo assistant while attending college for business. From the very beginning, I knew I wanted to combine my love for hair with a strong foundation in leadership and entrepreneurship. For the past 10 years, I served as the salon manager of Blue Line Hair Studio, where I had the opportunity to grow not only in the beauty industry, but also as a leader. Taking ownership of Salt & Light Beauty Collective is truly a full-circle moment for me. I’m honored to continue building a space that feels welcoming, inspiring, and supportive for both our clients and our team.
I’m passionate about helping stylists grow, refine their craft, and build confidence behind the chair. Creating opportunities for education, mentorship, and professional development is one of the most rewarding parts of what I do. For our clients, my goal is simple: to provide exceptional service in an environment where you feel comfortable, cared for, and confident when you walk out the door. I’m so grateful to do what I love every day and to serve this incredible community.

Catharine "Cat" McGuckin- Hairstylist
Hi, I'm Cat, and I've been in the beauty industry for four years. I love creating effortless, lived-in hair that looks beautiful, grows out seamlessly and fits naturally into your everyday routine. I specialize in lived-in color, blonding, balayage, and layered cuts, with a focus on creating soft, natural-looking results that are easy to maintain. My style is undone, relaxed, and effortlessly beautiful — think that perfect “I woke up like this” look.
One of my favorite parts of this industry is getting to know my clients and customizing each service to fit their lifestyle. I want your hair to look just as good weeks later as it does the day you leave the salon. I pride myself on being detail-oriented, attentive, and approachable, and my goal is always to make sure you feel comfortable, heard, and confident in my chair
When I’m not in the salon, I love spending time with my friends and family, especially my husband and our adorable baby boy. I’m also a sucker for reality TV — especially Bravo shows!
Amanda Harris- Hairstylist
Hi, I’m Amanda, and I’ve been behind the chair for 16 years specializing in blonding, custom color, and my signature brush-set blowouts. I love helping my clients achieve beautiful, healthy hair while creating looks that make them feel confident and radiant. What I love most about this industry is making people feel beautiful from the inside out and building relationships that last for years. Some of my favorite clients have been with me through life’s biggest milestones, and that connection means everything to me.
I’d describe myself as a little silly, easygoing, and always ready for a good conversation. When I’m not in the salon, I’m busy being a mom to my two little girls, embroidering, thrifting for antiques, upcycling furniture, or working on my latest crafting project. I can’t wait to welcome you into my chair and help you achieve your hair goals! ✨

Hali McCollum- Hairstylist
Hi, I’m Hali! I’ve been behind the chair for eight years, and I truly love what I do. Blonding and color corrections are my absolute favorite services — there’s nothing better than creating bold, beautiful, personalized color that still feels natural and completely you. I’m passionate about delivering stunning results while always prioritizing the health and integrity of your hair.
Some of my favorite moments in the salon are the meaningful conversations, the relaxing shampoo, and of course… the big reveal. I believe I’m not just your stylist — I’m also your friend. Creating a welcoming space where you feel heard, comfortable, and confident is just as important to me as the final result. I love being part of the Salt & Light family because of our fun-loving environment and the strong sense of community we share. When I’m not in the salon, you can usually find me helping out at my church or spending time with my friends and family. And a fun fact about me — I have a twin sister!

Linzy Barber- Hairstylist
There’s nothing better than seeing someone leave feeling better than when they walked in. My vibe? Blonde, a little dark humor, and always honest. And as a joke — I always say my favorite clients are the ones with money and man problems. 😉 When I’m not in the salon, I’m usually busy being a mom and keeping up with my daughter, Sheena — but when I find a little extra time, I love baking.

Hi, I’m Karin, and I’ve been in the beauty industry for 36 years. I specialize in perms, haircuts, and color, and I’ve spent my career helping clients feel confident, beautiful, and cared for. Before joining the team here, I was the owner of Blue Line Hair Studio for 10 years, but I retired from ownership to return to what I love most — being behind the chair and connecting with my clients. I truly enjoy catching up with everyone and making them feel their best.
When I’m not in the salon, I’m all about family time with my five daughters and two granddaughters. I also love hitting the open road on my motorcycle whenever I get the chance.

Francisco Calderon- Hairstylist
Hi, I’m Francisco, and I’ve been in the beauty industry for 40 years. I specialize in blonding, haircuts, formal styles, and men’s haircuts, with a passion for making every client feel beautiful. My favorite transformations are blondes — there’s nothing like that perfect, radiant look. I’ve had the honor of winning multiple formal hairstyling competitions over the years, but what I truly love most is seeing the smile on my clients’ faces when they leave the salon feeling confident and happy.
I’m a goofy, fun-loving stylist who loves to dance, and you’ll often find me at dance nights a few times a week. I also enjoy Judo, and fun fact — I used to be a jockey! When I’m not in the salon, I love spending time with my children and grandchildren.

Margie Santucci-Rooney- Hairstylist
Hi, I’m Margie, and I’ve been in the beauty industry for 40 years. I specialize in beautiful blowouts and men’s haircuts, with a love for creating timeless, classic styles that never go out of fashion. Throughout my career, I’ve worked with professional brands like Wella, Redken, Clairol, and Schwarzkopf, and I’ve spent many years perfecting perms and traditional techniques that build the foundation of great hair.
Some may call me a bit of a spitfire — though I’ve calmed down with age (haha!) — but what I truly love most is being in the salon, working alongside the younger stylists and learning the newest trends from them. My clients mean the world to me. Many have become lifelong friends, and I want every person in my chair to feel loved, comfortable, and truly beautiful.
When I’m not in the salon, you’ll find me planting flowers, tending to my herb garden, cooking, singing in my church choir, or spending time with my family.

Melissa Hanratty- Hairstylist
Hi, I’m Melissa! I have 6 years of experience behind the chair, and I’m passionate about helping my clients feel confident, beautiful, and truly themselves. I specialize in vivid colors, dimensional color, layered haircuts, and pixie cuts, and I love creating customized looks that reflect each person’s unique style and personality.
My aesthetic is polished, edgy, and classic, and I bring a meticulous attention to detail to every service I provide. Whether you’re looking for a bold transformation or a subtle refresh, I take the time to listen to your goals and create a look that makes you feel your absolute best. One of the most rewarding parts of my job is seeing the confidence that great hair can give someone. I strive to create an environment where my clients feel calm, at ease, understood, and comfortable from the moment they sit in my chair.
When I’m not in the salon, you’ll find me at the gym, spending time with my partner and my dog. I value kindness, connection, and making people feel cared for both inside and outside the salon. I can’t wait to welcome you into my chair and help bring your hair goals to life!

Brooke Hart- Nail Technician
Hi, I’m Brooke — a Nail Technician with over 25 years of experience and a true love for creating beautiful, healthy nails. I specialize in gel manicures and pedicures designed to enhance the natural nail while maintaining its strength and integrity. I also adore nail art and exploring new techniques — whether it’s something timeless and elegant or fresh and creative, I love bringing your vision to life.
Nail health is at the heart of everything I do. I choose to hand file rather than use e-files because it allows me to work gently and intentionally, protecting the natural nail and creating a more controlled, detailed finish. This thoughtful approach helps ensure your nails remain strong, healthy, and beautifully maintained.
For pedicures, I use a traditional copper bowl without jets. Jetless bowls are more sanitary and easier to fully disinfect, providing a cleaner, safer experience. Copper also has natural antimicrobial properties, adding an extra layer of cleanliness while creating a warm, soothing soak that helps you truly unwind.
When I’m not in the salon, you’ll usually find me cooking, caring for my growing collection of houseplants, or spending time at home with my husband, our two daughters, and our many beloved animals. Creating beautiful spaces — whether in nature, at home, or through nail artistry — is truly what brings me joy.
My goal is always for you to leave feeling refreshed, relaxed, and confident — with nails that feel just as healthy as they look beautiful. I can’t wait to welcome you into my chair.

My aesthetic is effortless and polished, and I strive to bring an upbeat, determined, and relaxed energy to every guest experience. One of my favorite things about working in the salon is the sense of community—both among our team and with the clients who walk through our doors. My goal is for every client to feel calm, comfortable, and excited during their visit. Whether I’m assisting behind the scenes or helping create a relaxing shampoo experience, I love making people feel cared for and confident.
When I’m not in the salon, you can usually find me listening to music, spending time outdoors, reading a good book, or enjoying time with animals.
