2018 MODERN SALON 100: Marissa Larson @hairbymarissasue

What can we say...we love us some Larisa.  We've watched her progress for the past few years, from solo artist, to brand ambassador, to social phenom to boss lady salon owner. And through every phase and stage, hair and beauty are at the center of all she does.

2018 MODERN SALON 100: Tyler Plemmons @tyler.art

Good vibes only on Tyler Plemmons feed.  And lots of good hair. His clients leave with a 'model off duty' look--haircolor that looks haute and relaxed, at the same time.

2018 MODERN SALON 100: Frank Anthony Soto @Frankdabarber

What's happening in Florida that some of our favorite barbers are from the sunshine state?  Frank Anthony Soto's work is dope.  We especially love some of his littlest customers, who leave with a lollipop and a cut that will make them the coolest kid on campus.

2018 MODERN SALON 100: Tim Morrison @timm.morrison

It's fitting that Tim Morrison works out of downtown Los Angeles, as his aesthetic has an indie, downtown feel that is cool while still being accessible.  We love his dab hand with styling and his cuts are immediately identifiable, even without a watermark. He's someone we've watched for awhile and love having him as one of our 100.

2018 MODERN SALON 100: Carolynn Judd @styled_by_carolynn

Her asymetrical bobs give us life.  Angled and textured, she brings out the interest in every shape, creating a signature look.  Anyone would be lucky to be styled by Carolynn Judd.

2018 MODERN SALON 100: Shannon Rha @shannonrha

If you want a master class in color placement, look no further than Shannon Rha.  She loves sharing her technique and does it through a workshop series she created as well as in videos on Instagram.  Check out her hairline foilyage and you'll be changed forever, we promise.

2018 MODERN SALON 100: Matty Conrad @Mattyconrad

Barber we'd most like to grab a beer with, Matty Conrad describes himself as "the world's luckiest barber." He's also super savvy, launching his own brand while maintaining a clientele and overseeing salons. World's busiest barber, too, maybe.
