My name is Taylor Blades, Owner and Founder of Blades Styling Salon based in Gilbert Arizona. I have been in the hair industry for 13 years and have always had a love for extensions and connecting with stylists. There is something about the transformation and making women feel empowered, beautiful, and confident that I can’t get enough of. I have invested in myself, my future and in YOU to better my craft as an extension specialist and became Natural Beaded Row and Concealed by Covet & Mane certified.

My reasoning for being a part of Concealed by Covet & Mane was to bring a method to the market that your clients will feel comfortable wearing, my artistry is celebrated, and having a community that supports me. Concealed was tested in our salon for two years; two years of testing by wearing ourselves and trying on guests. We took all the good feedback and created a method that not only stylists will find an easy learning curve but that their guests will love experiencing as well. I want you to be able to take home a methodology that supports you and your business. Concealed will not only have you loving the installation process but also have a community that supports you as well.

I pour my heart into continuing to further my education and to provide my clients with the best experience possible. My favorite part about owning a salon is creating a culture where stylists feel safe, seen, heard and valued. This is what led me to education as well. I wanted to be the educator that made students FEEL important.

When I’m not all about hair you can find me enjoying the sun. Born in Raised in 100 degree temperatures will do that to you! MY go-to fun fact is that I am an identical twin, to my sister. We are two minutes apart, and yes we look exactly alike is what I’m told. Before you ask, no we cannot read each other’s minds.
