About Badri Kermani

Chemistry Meets Artistry

27 Years of Hair Artistry, Built on Science

Badri Kermani is a Master Colorist, hairstylist, hair designer, and salon owner with approximately 27 years of professional experience. Her background is a combination of science and artistry: she studied chemistry for two years in her home country before coming to the United States, then received her professional beauty training in Ohio and earned her Master Colorist certification in New York.

Over the years, her career has spanned luxury salon work as well as fashion, editorial, runway, pageant, special-event, and red-carpet styling — experience she brings into every appointment at her private studio in Solana Beach today.
