Lindsey Joslyn-Rohner is one of the most big-hearted people we have had the pleasure of working with in the beauty world. Besides being an incredible woman, her lashing skills are out of this world. We love her page, @lashbeat, because it not only showcases her beautiful work, it also spotlights being a working #GirlBoss in the industry.
You might notice that many of the 2017 MODERN SALON 100 list Heidi Marie (Garrett) Villa (@heidimariegarrett) as a stylist they follow for inspiration, and we can't say that we blame them! The SoCal stylist has perfect hair and makeup for brides and bridesmaids, and her styling-focused but also business-savvy classes around the country are not to be missed.
It's a dream situation for a stylist on Instagram for a creation to go viral, especially for a 20-something-year-old stylist. Hannah Edelman's chocolate mauve color creation blew up all over the internet, making its way to consumer-publication pages as the IT color for spring, even inspiring Selena Gomez to mix some dusty pink into her chocolate locks. Get to know Edelman here.

Jordan Northey specializes in beachy, sun-kissed hair on everyone from blondes, to brunettes and reds, to his own niece (find the post on his page, it's one of our faves!) And you know to trust a stylist when their perfectly lightened tresses are as awesome as the color looks they create.
What's better than a page of beautiful blondes? A page of beautiful blondes with pops of bright, vibrant color, of course! Lindsey Britton Little is known for both, and when you look at her page @bangbangbalayage you'll see why.
Say hello to crisp, beautiful balayage! Amy Conley McManus posts a plethora of perfectly lightened hair in clean, mostly naturally lit photos. We especially love her before-and-after photos and images showing the placement of lightener, followed by an always-lovely finish.
No stranger to her work gracing @modernsalon's page (or the cover of our magazine and supplements), Sarah Mac's page, @thespiritualhairdresser, mixes good-for-the-soul hair and motivation while giving an inside look into her own life. Mac's page demonstrates the passion and spirit behind the craft, and we love her for that.
With just shy of 1,300 followers on Instagram, we know Alexandra Wilson (@alexandralee1016) has big things in store. The XXX-based stylist would be a huge asset to any bride on her big day; Wilson's braiding, updos and styling are beautiful, precise and trend-forward.
Krystle Waivio (@krystlewaiviohair) first caught our attention when she won our Wedding Party Wednesday contest on Instagram with a beautiful fishtail braid upstyle in September 2016. That same style also got her into the top 10 semifinalists of our Braids & Brides styling competition at the beginning of 2017.
Known for her beachy blonde color looks, Lo Wheeler is not only a colorist, but she's a salon owner and social-media maven. What catches our eye about her page is how she makes her clients a character in her color story, putting boho, sun-drenched beach waves in a scene you would imagine them in—on a wicker chair, in the midst of tropical greenery, or next to a cactus—all kissed by natural lighting.
The team of six stylists at Sunkissed & Made Up in Houston knows the power of a good before-and-after. Their bridal styles and makeup transformations range from classic and polished to trendy and tousled, making them sought-after by brides and bridesmaids.
Introducing our 2017 class of social media beauty influencers—the work that made them Insta-famous, tips on getting noticed, how Instagram changed their lives, and favorite apps, hashtags and pages to follow.
You can catch Laura Chihaia (@lalasupdos) teaching updo classes at salons and on stages around the country. After moving to the U.S. from Romania in 2006, Chihaia made a name for herself when she started her Instagram account in 2014.
Yen Vuongphan must have a full book of clients with long, luxurious hair. Those clients let Vuongphan, better known as @ombrestudio, put her amazing ombre skills to work. Get ready to be inspired by the most perfectly diffused ombres you've ever seen. No "bad ombres" here! (Sorry, we had to).
