Interview with:
Hayley Justine Grzybowski of Hair By Hayley Justine
When and why did you start your business?
My name is Hayley Justine Grzybowski and my business is called “Hair By Hayley Justine.”
I started my business officially this October 2023, finally becoming my own boss, by sharing a private studio after being in the industry since 2019. Previously, I was located in a boutique eco-salon in Sag Harbor.
I started my hair journey in Riverhead, and have now come full circle with my new suite in Downtown Riverhead. While born a South Fork Girl, the Riverhead area & the North Fork have always held a special place in my heart. I feel so grateful to be a part of this community, and look forward to growing in my craft here.
What's your story?
I was born & raised in Southampton, NY with a life long passion for creating art, and a drive to understand how the mind works. I attended Hunter College where I earned a Bachelor’s in Psychology with a minor in World Religions. Later deciding to combine my two passions, I attended Eastern Suffolk BOCES Adult Cosmetology Program at the Riverhead Campus. I have also studied under the mentorship of world-renowned and award-winning industry leader; Vivienne Mackinder.
What do you offer?
I offer Haircuts, Custom Single Process Color/Highlights, Blow Outs, Natural Keratin Smoothing Treatments, Clarifying Detox Treatments, Scalp & Deep Conditioning Treatments, Quiet Appointments, & Elevating Rituals with Reiki. Every appointment is One on One, where I can devote my entire energy and focus on creating hair magic bespoke to you.
What else do you want people to know?
My approach to hair care is holistic, & incorporates principles of Psy-Cosmetology; where beauty and the psyche intersect. All while using cruelty-free & environmentally conscious products & practices. It is vital that every product that I use has clean ingredients, and that the environment in the suite is calming to all of the senses. I believe that going to the salon should be an act of self-love, and self-care; leaving you relaxed and not overstimulated.
In addition to hair and scalp services, I offer Reiki Energy Healing as well to enhance your experience.
Holistic hair and scalp care goes beyond aesthetics; it's about nurturing a connection between mind, body, and beauty -inner & outer. By considering not just the outward appearance but also the overall well-being, I strive to create a transformative experience. From Reiki-infused rituals, haircuts, and colors to using nourishing clean products, my holistic care promotes not just beautiful locks but also a harmonious balance within. It's a self-care ritual that radiates your beauty from the inside out.
Reiki also plays a vital role in holistic hair care by channeling positive energy into every strand. As a Reiki 2 practitioner, I infuse each session with healing vibrations, promoting balance and rejuvenation. It's more than a haircut; it's a mindful, energetic experience that aligns your inner essence with your outer beauty.
For me, Psy-cosmetology is a major key to creating hair transformations that resonate on a deeper level. As a Holistic Hairstylist, I recognize the emotional connection to appearance. By understanding the psychology behind self-expression, I ensure each haircut and color reflects not just your face shape but also your unique personality, style, and energy. It's about crafting a look that aligns with your inner self, fostering confidence, and expressing your authentic self.
For every New Client, I utilize a thorough Online Consultation Form. This form is done in advance of booking your first appointment and allows me insight into you and your hair goals. Not only does this guarantee the proper booking, it opens up a constructive pre-appointment virtual consultation between us before we even meet. This open dialogue allows us both to discuss issues, manage expectations, share inspiration, and set and agree on goals ahead of time.
