Instagram post 18108799849327234 Earlier this year, the legendary Kate Moss chose @micky.kibbe.hair to bring new life to her look. Micky expertly transitioned Kate into a dimensional blond for her upcoming campaigns with @ysl, @aninebingofficial and her appearance at the Met Gala. It’s a dream come true to have an icon like Kate in our styling chair and to see Micky’s work in these campaigns!

Specialties

curly & textured hair / dimensional lightening


As a genuine Texas native and Kevin Murphy session stylist, Michelle can handle anything you throw at her. While apprenticing and honing her craft, Michelle found her true niche—lived-in, wash-and-go styles that accentuate her clients’ natural beauty while also making their lives a bit easier. She loves the way a great cut and/or color can make a client feel utterly amazing and give them an easy to maintain style so they can let the good times roll—laissez les bon temps rouler!

Specialties

listening/collaborating/transforming


April comes to us with a depth of experience helping small businesses to be the best they can be and Swoon is lucky to have her! She’s a form wonk, dedicated to listening and collaborating with all parties involved in any endeavor, and co-creating something beautiful that has full buy-in from the team.

April loves to learn and is currently learning how to be a Central Texas herb gardener.  She’s making kombucha, teas, and tincturing with her spoils. She’s a dog mom to 5, a cat roommate to 3, and counts the lizards and roly-polys as her outdoor companions. She moved to Austin in 1993 because of Barton Springs and has spent every summer swimming since then.

 


 

 

Melissa Tammarine
she/her

stylist


Melissa focuses her career on what she loves most – transformation. She started her hair journey in 2011 where she attended the Aveda Institute of Orlando, FL. Since then, Melissa has become certified in fusion, beaded, flat-tip, tape-in, and sew-in weft hair extensions. Over the past several years, she’s worked behind the chair in a total of four states with four juxtaposed demographics which continue to enrich her skillset in very unique ways. The thing she loves most about being a stylist is that on a daily basis she gets to learn, create, connect, and transform, which is what she embodies in her personal life as well. “I truly love what I do and I hope to share that with you in my chair!” says Melissa. In her free time she is always on a quest to better herself and her surroundings in a positive way so that hopefully she can inspire others to do the same. Now residing in Austin, Texas and being an avid lover of life, music, comedy, animals, and travel, she’s excited to continue to expand her horizons.

Chingri Shimray

Salon Coordinator

she/her

Chingri gravitates towards good energy and positive flow. Wherever she goes, she enjoys working behind-the-scenes to create uplifting and supportive environments for those around her. She was immediately drawn to Swoon’s morning ritual of burning palo santo throughout the salon for a reset of each day. Her favorite part of life at the salon is meeting Swoon’s unique clientele who hail from all walks of life. Their fun stories and interesting backgrounds feed Chingri’s love of learning, and her southern hospitality (complete with “Dad Jokes”) keeps them smiling!

Marty impresses humans with his impeccable behavior. It is not uncommon for him to go unnoticed in his tiny home due to his quiet nature. Marty excels in providing emotional support for everyone that enters Swoon with his adorable and stoic smile.
