Born and raised in Orange County, California, Briana has always had a passion for the beauty industry. After graduating high school, she began studying business and entrepreneurship at a local community college before realizing her true calling was behind the chair. In 2013, she enrolled in the Cosmetology program at Riverside City College, where her journey in hair truly began.

Briana spent her early years in the industry assisting two talented stylists at different salons, where she gained hands-on experience with extensions, blonding techniques, and wig styling. Her favorite part of working in beauty has always been helping clients feel confident and radiant.

In 2016, Briana and her husband moved to Waco, Texas, drawn by the city’s growing opportunities and welcoming community. She quickly fell in love with her clients and the relationships she built, which inspired her to open Bloom Hair Studio in 2021.

Creating Bloom has been a dream realized — a space where women are encouraged to come as they are and leave feeling refreshed, beautiful, and full of life. Briana is best known for her signature blonding techniques, effortless lived-in color, and wedding and special occasion styling. She is consistently booked months in advance and currently takes on a limited number of new clients.
