About Victoria
Victoria's journey in the hair industry began with a simple belief: every woman deserves to feel confident in her hair. After graduating from NYU and completing her training at the Aveda Institute, she spent ten years honing her craft at some of Manhattan's most prestigious salons, working with clients of all ages, hair types, and textures.
In 2018, she launched Hair Style Album as a way to share her expertise beyond the salon chair. What started as a personal blog quickly grew into a comprehensive resource trusted by millions. Victoria personally oversees every article, ensuring that all content meets the highest editorial standards and provides genuinely helpful advice.
Beyond the website, Victoria is passionate about mentoring the next generation of stylists and advocating for inclusivity in the beauty industry. She regularly speaks at beauty conferences and collaborates with leading brands to push the boundaries of hair innovation.
