Master Stylist—Level 4
Christy graduated from VCU in 1997 with a degree in fine arts. As she was completing her BFA in painting & printmaking, she began her love of painting and cutting hair. Christy’s career grew at the top salons in the Richmond area as she quickly became a master stylist, color specialist, cosmetology instructor, and an education team leader. Christy is the owner of Helio Salon and her specialty lies in hair color. Her diverse background of color began by attending classes at Framesi Color College in Barcelona, Wella World Studio in NYC and countless color classes with Aveda, Logics, Schwarzkopf, Paul Mitchell, Redken, Keune, and Davines. Christy’s cutting experience includes multiple classes at Bumble and Bumble in New York City.
Christy enjoys being a mom and going to swim meets and soccer games with her amazing wife. Her experience and dedication to the art of hair is evident.

Junior Stylist—Level 2
Charlotte started in the hair industry at just 16 years old as an apprentice at Helio. She has attended a variety of classes including Redkin Color Melting, Pulp Riot Creative Color, Corey King’s Precision Cutting, and Cecily Morgan’s Bridal Updo class. Charlotte also traveled to New Orleans to the Left Brain Group hair show called “Hairnomicon”. Most recently, she took local classes on Foil Highlighting and Modern Mullets.
Charlotte specializes in precision haircuts that are flattering and easy to maintain, lived-in color that focuses on natural highlights that grow out seamlessly, and bold creative colors that express individuality.
Charlotte can also be seen around town running ultra marathons, spoiling her dog Tina with pup cups, and playing guitar. At home she’s creating art, painting with gouache and acrylic or whipping up her favorite new vegan recipe.

Apprentice Stylist—Level 1
Katie is a graduate from James Madison University with a BA and MA in English. After a short amount of time teaching at a local private school she quickly realized her passion for haircutting especially razor cutting, shags, and those simple-but-complex textured bobs. She has spent her apprenticeship honing her skills under her mentor, Christy Moseley and Katie firmly believes in lifelong learning. Recently, she has been inspired by several hands on cutting classes—Corey King’s precision cutting, Davines shag haircuts, and a modern mullet cutting class.
When she’s not busy making hair magic, you can find her zipping around the Fan on her bike with her wonderful husband, Ian—usually in hot pursuit of the perfect sandwich. She also spends her downtime herding her curious cats away from water glasses and enjoying Desperate Housewives while crocheting.
