Shade27. Hair Studio
Owner: Caroline Stephenson
I’m a Kansas City-based hairstylist with four years of experience, specializing in blonding, lived-in color, and flawless blowouts. Originally from Dodge City, Kansas, I moved to Kansas City in 2022 to pursue my passion at Paul Mitchell, where I built a strong foundation in both technique and creativity. Since then, I’ve had the opportunity to learn from and work alongside talented stylists in both Kansas City and Houston, continuously growing my skills and perspective.
I’m known for being social, approachable, and genuinely passionate about connecting with every client who sits in my chair. I love working with all types of people and creating a space where you feel comfortable, confident, and truly yourself.
When I’m not behind the chair, you can usually find me at the gym, enjoying a walk with friends and coffee in hand, spending time with loved ones, or cuddling my cats, Beans and Gigi.
My goal is simple: I want you to feel heard, valued, and loved during your time with me—and to leave not only loving your hair, but your entire experience.
