You Already Know More Cut & Color Techniques Than You'll Ever Need
I get it. You've spent years in classes and workshops building an impeccable technical foundation. Yet there are moments when your work feels just slightly off or you’ve completed another “insert name brand here” hair cut or color to results that you know aren’t quite the vision you had in mind.
After ten years as a global educator I’ve come to understand that standard advanced cosmetology education trains us to override our vision and intuition with methods, rules, and step-by-step techniques.
These rote methods of learning and doing often result in visionary artists morphing into yes-stylists who copy Pinterest photos. It’s hard to embrace your intuition when your revenue (the money) is tied to the latest TikTok trend.
But quiet as it kept, your Intuition is your most valuable asset.
The Nourish Approach
A Framework, Not A Method
The Nourish Approach nurtures your intuition and artistic vision by fusing multi-disciplinary arts practice with deep exploration in foundational cosmetology theory. The overarching goal is not to learn more tips and tricks, but to integrate & transform the knowledge and skills you’ve already accumulated into a codified, signature body of work.
Hey I'm Aeleise and I believe you already have everything you need to do incredible hair work
With an extensive background in painting, printmaking, photography, and dance, I've spent my life at the intersection of art and movement. Hair has been my favorite canvas for the last 20 years.
I've worked with brands like CurlMix, TreLuxe, and Innersense Organic Beauty as an educator, editorial stylist, and platform artist. For ten years I was dedicated to educating both consumers and professionals globally about tight curls & natural hair.
Now I'm redefining beauty education at its core with Nourish Atelier, my creative sanctuary where multi-disciplinary arts collide with cosmetology theory.
I detest certificate chasing and could care less about creating copycat artists. I’m here to guide you to develop the creative process & artistic vision that inspires you to do the work only you can execute.
Nourish Atelier: The Space
Nourish Atelier, located 20 minutes south of Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson Airpot, is a light-filled 600 sq. ft. micro salon and working art studio. ‘
The name itself captures our essence perfectly - "Nourish" speaks to deep nurturing rather than surface-level change, while "Atelier" connects to the traditional artist's workshop where both creation and instruction happen naturally.
