Tara Eslami
 
Playing hair and make up, on the inherited vanity table at the tender age of eleven sparked Tara's interest for the beauty industry. It wasn't until college, in the 90's, that she got her first professional haircut at the most expensive, high-end hair salon in the city. She began to realize while sitting in the chair getting her haircut that she could become a stylist. Being paid to sit around all day watching and making individuals feel and look their best was a lifestyle she wanted to take on! The passion was reignited. Shortly after the experience TARAneh Eslami enrolled in "Von Curtis Academy of Hair Design" and graduated as a member of the "Design Team" in 1992. 

  Since then Tara has enjoyed working at many prestigious salons in the area and assisted at various hair and fashion shows. Her advanced artistic training comes from various sources such as Vidal Sasson, Yosh, Toni & Guy, Fredrick Fekkai, Paul Mitchell and Aveda courses, live training and seminars from all over the world. At first Tara's specialty was cutting but she quickly moved onto the art of Color. Having the opportunity to work with Master colorist  Mr. Michael Canale at the Canale Salon in Beverly Hills, Tara was able lend a hand on celebrities, one being Jennifer Aniston. She served as his main cutting stylist on the floor until she returned to her beloved city of San Francisco. Tara has since added to her services mastering Human Hair Extensions and eyebrow shaping and tinting as well as Threading. Tara is excited to be at Willow Salon adding her new artistic curl!
