Mikayla Orton
@mikaylaorton
Hairstylist and licensed cosmetologist focused on exceptional client experiences and consultations.
What I'm looking for
I’m an enthusiastic, hardworking and dependable licensed cosmetologist who delivers outstanding customer service and positive customer experiences. I’m adaptable to learning new systems, processes and technologies, and I constantly look for ways to add value beyond my assigned tasks.
In my freelance hairstylist work, I perform a full range of chemical services following prescribed protocols and deliver haircuts tailored to client preferences. I conduct in-depth consultations to accurately assess needs and ensure satisfaction before clients leave.
I also support busy clients and schedules by providing shampoo, blow dry and hair styling services and using software to create and accept bookings. I’m consistent about keeping my workspace clean and well organized so clients feel welcomed and comfortable.
Previously, I managed store operations, including opening and closing duties, booked private sessions, and handled customer inquiries across phone and in person. That experience strengthened my communication, issue resolution, and ability to monitor and reset escape rooms to maintain a high-quality guest experience.
