MEET THE TEAM

Angela is a Wisconsin gal, born and raised to enjoy all that the Dairy State has to offer. She resides on a farm in Chetek where she has plenty of animals to care for.

A graduate of The Salon Professional Academy in Eau Claire, Angela has a passion for all aspects of the beauty industry. She enjoys short haircuts and providing one-of-a-kind color services that create the perfect look! Angela works hard to make sure the consultations with her clients are thorough and well planned out so her clients expectations are met every time!

Kelly is a Midwest girl, having lived in either northwest Wisconsin or western Minnesota most of her life. She and her husband, Larry, currently reside just north of Rice Lake, enjoying all that the northland has to offer.

A licensed esthetician, Kelly has enjoyed a lifelong passion for all things skincare and makeup. Since receiving her certification in 2008, she has continued to study advanced skincare techniques at the International Dermal Institute in Minneapolis, MN. In 2011, she added to her growing list of specialties by becoming a certified nail technician.

Kelly is excited to provide her clients with professional skincare, makeup applications, gel polish manicures and pedicures, and waxing services!

For Laura, hair and beauty have been a life-long calling. After graduating from the cosmetology program at the Aveda Institute Minneapolis, she went to work as an apprentice at Spalon Montage, a premier salon in the Twin Cities. Laura loves providing color services. She adores Aveda’s hair color system because it allows her to create custom, one of a kind color for each and every client, with no two people ever looking the same!

Laura’s favorite service is foilayage! Similar to balayage, it creates an even more blended look with brighter ends and darker roots- using foils for people that want bright blonde hair that is low-maintenance.

Laura also enjoys providing blow-outs and styles that create volumized, smooth, and beautiful looks for all hair types. She is passionate about educating each client on how to create the look he or she desires.

Fringe is dedicated to providing its team with the best Aveda education and Laura is continually taking classes to learn new styles, trends, and techniques to share with her clients.

Paula is a life-long resident of Rice Lake. She has 12 years of experience in the jewelry and fashion industry and takes great pride in helping women feel beautiful. In fact, it will only take a few minutes with her to discover that she has a love for everything “fun” and “girly“.

Paula’s high energy, positive upbeat attitude, and love of interacting with people will ensure your Fringe experience will be nothing short of outstanding!

Carrie is, by definition, an Aveda addict. When the Barron native first discovered that she had a head of corkscrew curls in a family of stick straight hair, her mom brought her straight to the Twin Cities to find an Aveda salon so she could learn to befriend her hair. Fifteen years later and she has never traded in her Aveda products for alternatives. On naturally curly days or flat-ironed days, she swears that no other products compare to keep her hair manageable and beautiful.

When not working as our Front Office Coordinator, Carrie is as an Acupuncturist and is the owner of Blackbird Acupuncture Clinic which is located in the lower level of Fringe Salon! She specializes in cosmetic acupuncture, sports medicine, and general healthcare. Carrie is a licensed acupuncturist with a Master’s Degree in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine. She is a Diplomate of Acupuncture, certified nationally by the NCCAOM, and is licensed in the states of Wisconsin and Minnesota.

Carrie firmly believes that taking care of your body and mind (which includes an occasional salon, spa, and acupuncture treatment) is the trick to good health, feeling beautiful, and being the best ‘you’ possible!
