Welcome to style kitchen

Style Kitchen is a boutique salon that has replicated the iconic American kitchen. This imagery calls to mind the comfort of home and the foundation of every stylist. When the idea of starting a salon came to mind we knew we had to get back to where we all started, in our childhood kitchens. A kitchen to us is so complex! It's where families gather, where parties get into full swing, and where we first expressed our craft.

MARK MASSA

STYLIST/FLOOR MANAGER • Joined March 2011

Mark knew from a very early age that the salon business was the business for him. Growing up in Bowling Green Kentucky, Mark started braiding hair in kindergarten and told his parents that when he grows up he was going to braid hair in the Bahamas. He loves doing men’s cuts, women’s long layers and absolutely loves when a client walks through the door wanting a pixie cut! During his free time you most likely will find him with his dog Walter ( whom is a girl ) by a pool with a whiskey ginger and good book, the man loves to read.

CHARITY KIRSCHBAUM

ESTHETICIAN • Joined June 2014

Charity moved to Nashville 7 years ago from Kansas City Missouri. Her inspiration to becoming an esthetician came from doing makeup, starting in junior high school, for all of her girlfriends. Whenever there were school dances she would be busy all morning into the afternoon getting everyone’s makeup done. Charity really enjoys getting to know her clients and her coworkers, this is what really keeps her going at work. One of her other passions is cooking! Her momma taught her and now it’s something she gets to share with the ones she loves. Although Charity isn’t really an early riser she does like to get up and enjoy a large cup of a coffee and the morning. She is a proud owner of a cat named Kitteh and a dog named Jim. She’s been with Style Kitchen for a year now and has never been happier with her job!
