Paradise PlazaLoft 33Sarasota, FL

My Journey

I have twenty+ wonderful years of experience in the beauty industry. I began apprenticing under Master Stylist and Colorist Phillip Movius of Birmingham, Michigan, then under Master Stylist and Colorist Richard Weintraub, owner of Yellow Strawberry. For sixteen years I worked alongside the amazing Master Stylist Tess Evanoff at Spa Hollywood.

My Philosophy

I love sharing new ideas and creatively expressing dynamic hair designs. My heart's desire was to have my very own salon space, so I took a leap of faith and began this journey. I have a genuine concern for the health of your hair and take extreme pride in everything I do.

Kind Words

From real clients
"

Augast has been doing my cut and color for 5 years. I drive over an hour to reach her and it is so worth it. She always nails the look. If I lived in Sarasota I would have her blow out my hair every week.

"

Augast has been coloring & styling my hair for almost 20 years. Augast is truly a master stylist, artist and perfectionist. She is extremely talented and is one of Sarasota's finest hair artists.

"

I just went to Augast for the first time and was so impressed! She took into account my skin tone, face shape, and eye color. She is a very talented hair stylist and I definitely recommend!

"

She is a miracle worker and an absolute joy to be around. She has really gotten my hair to an amazingly healthy point. I could never go to anyone else!

"

Augast has the skills, talent, experience, dedication, knowledge but more than anything she has an immense passion and heart for what she does. I am blessed to have found her.

I LOVE MY HAIRCUT. She told me I'd be able to handle a short haircut and I love it. Taking the leap of faith was absolutely worth it.
