MEET DOUG OβCONNELL
Iβm a passionate and experienced hairstylist based in the heart of the Orange County/Los Angeles area, with over 12 years of experience in the beauty industry. Currently, I work behind the chair at The Nest in Brea, CA, and I also love the variety that comes with freelancing for events, photoshoots, and in-home clients. My journey into the world of beauty wasnβt a straightforward one. Growing up, I always knew I wanted to pursue something creative, but I didnβt quite know what that looked like. Initially, I was drawn to makeup, but after exploring that path, I realized it wasnβt for me. Thatβs when I decided to take a leap and enroll in cosmetology school at 20 in Fullerton, CA. As soon as I began my hair training, I knew I had found my true passion. The artistry of hair β from color transformations to precision cuts and styling β completely captivated me, and I never looked back. After graduating and earning my cosmetology license, I started as an assistant for a stylist and later became the ownerβs assistant at a salon. Less than two years later, I had my own chair and began building my clientele. What I love most about my work is the ability to connect with clients on a personal level and help them feel confident and beautiful. Itβs such a rewarding experience to hear peopleβs stories and know Iβve made a positive impact on their day, whether itβs a simple refresh or a complete transformation. While Iβm dedicated to my full-time work behind the chair, I also enjoy the dynamic nature of freelance opportunities. Iβm often working on photoshoots, weddings, special events, and traveling to clientsβ homes. My expertise spans everything from vibrant color work and cutting-edge cuts to glamorous styling and hair extensions. Iβm always looking for new ways to challenge myself and push the boundaries of creativity. I canβt wait to meet you and create some hair magic together. Letβs make your hair dreams a reality!
