Alexandria (Alex) Hillard
Professional Stylist and Owner, Edelweiss

Alex grew up in a family-run business and always knew she would have her own one day. As a girl, she loved going to the salon, and once the cosmetology bug bit her, her dream of owning her own business became a reality. She completed an extensive apprenticeship and did hair on MTV's "I Want a Famous Face." She had clients on other reality shows as well. Now with five years experience as a successful stylist, Alex feels blessed to be doing something she is so passionate about. Her strength is versatility. She is equally talented in "special occasion" hair, blonde highlighting, and permanent straightening. She's also an expert with curly and long hair.
