Award-winning colorist and influencer Jessica Scott Santo launched her career after graduating from the top of her class at the Metro Beauty Academy in 2008. She quickly discovered her passion for education, teaching modeling hair classes at Image International Modeling Agency while continuing her own training under the acclaimed stylist Matthew Alan Thorpe. For a decade she worked as a Master Stylist before opening her own hair salon, Jessica Scott Hair, where she specializes in bespoke balayage for discerning clients in her home state of Pennsylvania.

Jessica’s artistry and flawless technique have earned her numerous accolades, including 2021 American Influencer Award for Haircolorist of the Year. In the same year, she won Behind the Chair’s OneShot Award in Color Video and taught her blonding techniques on the BTC main stage in Austin, Texas. She was also named one of Modern Salon’s Top 100 Stylists in 2018, in addition to other awards and honors.

She has traveled extensively as an educator and haircolor expert, and worked with many brands as an influencer on social media. She loves inspiring other stylists, and her Instagram page—where she shares a wealth of technical and artistic instruction on balayage and blonding—has 300,000 followers.
