TEAM
Kristina Cheeseman
Owner, Stylist + Colorist (she/they) Award-winning hairstylist. International trouble maker with a color brush. For me, hair has always been about more than looking good - t’s about freedom, identity, and joy. I believe the chair is a place where we can heal our inner child, experiment without fear, and show the world exactly who we are. With 17+ years behind the chair and on stages around the world, I’ve built a reputation for bold, creative color work and a deep respect for self-expression in all its forms. But don’t box me in - I specialize in all hair types and bring the same energy to precision cuts, razor cutting, and making sure we maintain the health and integrity of your hair. All new color clients require an in person consultation before booking any color service.
Oliver Atkinson
Stylist (They/She) Oliver has been behind the chair for 3 years, and in that time they’ve made it their mission to turn hair into something that actually feels like you. Equal parts artist and stylist, Oliver gravitates toward the alternative, the whimsical, and the unexpected. Their approach is simple: you should leave the salon feeling seen, heard, and like the most authentic version of yourself. Whether that means a full transformation or just finally nailing the thing you’ve been trying to describe for years, Oliver’s going to get you there. When they’re not in the salon, you can find them picking up a new craft (candle making, crocheting, painting, the list keeps growing), spending time with their pets, and definitely singing to themselves.
Fitz Stuller
Stylist, Barber (they, she) Fitz is a licensed cosmetologist and barber with over a decade of experience behind the chair, specializing in all hair types and textures. Hair has always been a creative outlet for them, and they love helping clients express themselves through thoughtful cuts and styles. Outside the salon, Fitz proudly embraces their nerdy side. You’ll likely find them playing video games, watching anime, or getting lost in a good book. You can catch Fitz at Xanadu on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
