Heather Shields

Hi, I’m Heather — owner of Salt & Sea. I specialize in soft, dimensional, lived-in color and effortless cuts that highlight your natural beauty and grow out seamlessly, so you feel confident and refreshed every day.

Growing up on the Jersey Shore, I was always drawn to all things hair and beauty. In 2018, I left my previous career to finally make the jump into the hair world and I’ve never looked back.

At Salt & Sea, my goal is to create an experience that feels calm, comfortable, and personal. Every appointment is customized to your hair goals, lifestyle, and maintenance preferences. I love creating looks that feel effortless — the kind of color and shape that still looks amazing weeks later. Along the way, I’ll share styling tips and product recommendations so you can recreate your salon look at home.

When I’m not behind the chair, you can usually find me sipping an iced coffee, planning my next trip, reading a book, or watching true crime (or reality TV) with my husband, Jeb, and our two furry kids, River and Raven.

I’m so glad you’re here, and I can’t wait to welcome you to the Salt & Sea experience!
