More than just a hairstylist.

I'm Kristen.

I’m Kristen Lumiere—mom, wife, and the mentor who turns women’s “someday” ideas into real, freedom-filled businesses.
I help women behind the chair create flexible, profitable careers that support your life, fuel your ambition, and finally give you the freedom you became independent for.

You’ve got the spark & the passion. The ideas scribbled in a dozen notebooks.

What you don’t have? Time to figure out how to pull it all together into a business that looks as good as it feels—and actually gives you more time to live your dream life.

That’s where I come in.

I’m the kind of mentor who has made and learned from all the mistakes you can make as a stylist. 

My story didn’t start with six figures. It started during one of the hardest seasons of my life…

Leaving my family and moving to the middle of the country to chase a toxic love at 19. 

No one knew, but I was just a baby drowning in a riptide of choices, with no guide to help me out.

Hair wasn’t paying my bills, so I picked up a second job working at a car audio shop in the evenings.

The people there became my support system. one of them being Tyler, who had no idea he was about to become the most important person in my life.

I didn’t know it then, but that chapter of starting over, working late nights, and rebuilding myself from zero would become the foundation of everything I teach today.

Then I realized that love shouldn't hurt.

The power to break a toxic cycle that trapped me in that tide for so many years came in the form of a man with love in his eyes and determination to stay while I healed all the painful parts of me. 

Tyler and I started building a life together, something in me changed too.

I realized I was done settling for survival-mode behind the chair. I wanted flexibility. Stability. Freedom.

So I stopped trying to be everything to everyone, specialized, and finally started treating my job title like a real career.

That’s when my business—and my income— completely transformed.

I built a business that supported my life—not the other way around.

Years later, I became the sole income provider for our family while other people looked down on my "little hair business."

Tyler became a stay-at-home dad so I could chase the dream we’d built together.

I worked three days a week, built a 6+ figure career, and created a life I was proud of. One with flexibility, freedom, and stability.

And now?
Tyler edits my videos.
We homeschool our kids.
We work side-by-side (literally and figuratively).
And our life gets to be designed around us, not my book, not my clients, not the industry.

I built my dream life behind the chair.

And now I teach women like you to build yours.

As women, the last thing we lack is ambition.

But you didn't go to Beauty School thinking that there would be a huge gap between being 'good at hair,' and good at business. 

That gap is missing systems, support, and the kind of business education that actually works for independent stylists.

I believe your business should support your life, not consume it.

Burnout should not be a requirement for success.

Independence shouldn’t feel isolating.

You deserve flexibility, financial stability, and time freedom.

And above all: You already have everything you need, my job is to help you put it together in a way that gives you momentum.

I’ll help you create a business that expands with you.

Today I mentor women behind the chair who want more:

  • Financial Freedom & Security
  • Time Back & Boundaries
  • Systems That Actually Work
  • Confidence In Their Pricing
  • Flexibility In Their Schedule
  • Life, Not Burnout

Whether you’re an established independent stylist or stepping into independence for the first time, I’ll help you create a business that expands with you, not against you.
