JoAnn Bollinger
Richmond, VA Precision Blonding Specialist


Hello, I’m JoAnn 

Hi, I’m JoAnn (she/her). I began my cosmetology apprenticeship in 2005 and quickly fell in love with the craft of hair and the relationships that grow from it. For nearly two decades, I have continued expanding my skills through advanced education with Bumble and Bumble, Schwarzkopf Professional, R+Co, Oribe, Hairbrained, The Left Brain Group, and Pony Education.

Continuing education is foundational to my work. It builds trust, keeps my techniques current, and allows me to offer an elevated and grounded experience to every client who sits in my chair.

Each appointment is a collaborative process that blends my technical knowledge with your individuality and how you want to express yourself. My goal is for you to leave feeling more like yourself, clear, confident, and aligned.

My work focuses on razor haircuts, earthy and low maintenance color, and precision blonding that stays bright while protecting the health of your hair. If a request falls outside my offerings, I am always happy to refer you to one of my trusted stylist friends. Your hair is too important to leave to chance.

I am always open to conversation, while also fully honoring your need for a quiet and restorative appointment.

All services and policies can be found on my booking page. If you would like to make sure we are the right fit, feel free to book a consultation and see if I pass the vibe check.

PRECISION BLONDING, RAZOR CUTTING & LOW-MAINTENANCE COLOR

JoAnn’s approach to hair care…

  • Haircutting: Working with your hair’s natural movement—never against it—using tools like the razor to create soft, intentional shape.

  • Soft Precision: Clean lines and simple, lived-in shapes that suit every lifestyle and grow out beautifully.

  • Healthy First: Techniques that protect your hair’s integrity while keeping blondes bold, bright, and dimensional.

  • Calm Craft: A quiet, focused, sensory-considerate appointment centered on intentional results and ease.

Kind Words from my Clients

JoAnn absolutely kills it every time. I literally drive an hour one way, and it’s worth it.

I love the texture she provides without needing to use a razor to get a shag-like cut. The color shading is flawless, so going a little longer in between appointments if needed is no issue! And she’s a lovely human to boot <3

I have curly hair and she cuts it perfectly every single time, no matter what style inspo we’re going for!

I’ve been going to JoAnn for years, she’s the best! I have curly hair and she cuts it perfectly every single time, no matter what style inspo we’re going for! I show her my inspiration pics and she gives me exactly that! Highly highly recommend, if not for her talent, then for the conversation and spa-like experience.

My hair looks the best it has ever looked.

After moving to Richmond I struggled finding a new hair stylist who was a blonde expert. I followed a lot of highly rated salons and stylists, booked appts with many and never felt great about the outcome, something was always off, the level of service, technique, blonding, pricing… I took a chance on a last minute cancellation opening with Joann and the rest is history. From the beginning she got me back in shape, and now the best my hair has ever looked! The cut, the blonde, the effortless style that brings a LOT of style, she's magic.
