WORKING AT DANAE'S ON 4TH

More than a job.

Working at Danae's on 4th is centered around developing your talent — and developing you. You'll grow your craft alongside a team that supports the whole person you are, both professionally and personally.

It's a place where you're supported, encouraged, and respected. Where you can build a thriving career while still making your family a priority. Where teamwork comes first, kindness is the standard, and everyone belongs.

Danae, owner and stylist

Danae

Owner & Stylist

Hi, I'm Danae! I've been married to my husband, Ike, for 10 years, and together we're raising our four incredible kids — Stella, Naomi, Tommy, and JJ. They are my greatest joy and my biggest inspiration.

I've loved doing hair since I was a little girl, and after 14 years in the beauty industry and 8 years as a salon owner, I can honestly say I'm living the dream God placed on my heart.

When I opened Danae's on 4th, I wanted it to be more than just a salon. I dreamed of creating a place where every guest feels genuinely loved, seen, and appreciated for exactly who they are. I wanted a space where stylists feel supported, encouraged, and respected — a place where women can build thriving careers while still making their families a priority. A place where teamwork comes first, kindness is the standard, and everyone belongs.

Most of all, I wanted our salon to be filled with peace — the kind that only God can provide. My prayer has always been that people would feel that peace the moment they walk through our doors. We aren't afraid to talk about our faith, encourage one another, or stop and pray with someone who needs it. Serving people goes far beyond beautiful hair.

I'm passionate about healthy, natural-looking hair, helping women feel confident in their own beauty, and creating an experience that leaves people feeling refreshed from the inside out. Outside of the salon, you'll usually find me with a coffee (honey and oat milk, please!), dreaming up home design projects, or spending time with my family.

Looking back, I'm overwhelmed by God's faithfulness. Watching this dream unfold has been one of the greatest blessings of my life, and I'm so grateful for every client and every team member who has been part of the journey.

Welcome — we're so glad you're here.

Alexis, stylist

Alexis

Stylist

Hi, I'm Alexis! I'm a wife, mom of two, and have been in the beauty industry for 14–15 years. When I'm not behind the chair, I love spending quality time with my family and friends or simply relaxing and enjoying life's little moments.

I'm passionate about all things beauty and love that every day brings something different. Whether I'm creating a fresh new hair color, giving a precision haircut, providing nail services, or waxing, I enjoy helping my clients look and feel their best.

One of my favorite parts of this career is building relationships with my clients. I strive to create a welcoming, comfortable environment where you can relax, feel heard, and leave feeling confident. I look forward to getting to know you and helping you achieve your beauty goals!

Bri, receptionist

Bri

Receptionist

For the past 11 years, I've had the privilege of working as a salon receptionist, and I truly love what I do. From the moment clients walk through our doors, I strive to make them feel welcomed, valued, and excited about their visit. I enjoy building genuine connections with people and helping create a positive experience from the very first hello.

Working in a salon means wearing many hats, and I'm proud of every one of them. Whether I'm scheduling appointments, assisting clients, or helping the salon run smoothly behind the scenes, my goal is always the same — to help people in any way I can. There's something so rewarding about being part of a team that helps others feel confident, beautiful, and cared for.

Outside of work, my greatest joy is my family. I've been married to my wonderful husband for almost 10 years, and he truly is my better half. Together, we're raising our amazing four-year-old daughter, who fills our lives with so much love and laughter. Watching her grow, learn, and blossom into the incredible little girl she's becoming has been one of life's greatest blessings.

When I'm not at the salon, you'll usually find me spending quality time with my family, exploring new places, and making memories together. I love shopping, enjoying a good-quality iced latte, or making time for a fun girls' day — because there's nothing better than catching up with great friends over coffee.

I believe that kindness, connection, and helping others are at the heart of everything I do, both personally and professionally.

Jillian

Stylist

Hi, I'm Jillian Chapman! I've been a licensed cosmetologist for two years, but my love for hair began long before that. Ever since I was five years old, I've been fascinated by all things beauty and knew I wanted to help people feel confident through their hair.

My favorite part of this career is seeing the transformation. There's nothing more rewarding than a client's smile after a fresh color or a beautiful new look. While I enjoy all hair services, creating customized color is where my passion truly shines.

When I'm not behind the chair, you'll usually find me spending time with my little family, chasing adventures with my toddler, shopping, grabbing coffee with friends and family, or relaxing with a good TV show.

I'm incredibly grateful to have built a career I love with a schedule full of amazing clients. Helping people feel beautiful while building lasting relationships is truly a dream come true! I can't wait to welcome you into my chair!

Rachel, stylist

Rachel

Stylist

Hey there! My hair journey actually started back in high school when my family members became my very first clients. In 2018, I officially turned that passion into my professional career. Fun fact — I started at Danae's five days after graduating and I haven't looked back since! There is truly nothing better than getting to help and connect with the sweet people who sit in my chair every single day.

While making you feel beautiful is my passion, my family is my absolute life. My husband and I are high school sweethearts who tied the knot in 2021. We now have two beautiful daughters. On my days off, you can find me relaxing with family and friends. More accurately, trying to relax while constantly chasing our little ones around!

In the salon, my absolute favorite service to provide is natural hair color. I specialize in creating seamless, lived-in tones that look effortless and highlight your unique, God-given beauty. I can't wait to welcome you to my chair and help you achieve your hair goals!
