Hey, I’m Carrie James! I was born and raised in North Carolina but made the move to Chattanooga in 2020, where I found my passion for hairstyling and began my career in 2022.

I genuinely love working with all hair types, but I have a special affinity for creating dimensional brunettes, bright blondes, and seamlessly blending greys.

When I’m not in the salon, you’ll find me exploring the great outdoors or diving into a good book.

If you think we’re a great match, give The Strand a call—I’d love to chat, maybe even swap book recommendations!
