I’m Nicole Faugno-Aleman, founder of Colour Lab Salon — a creative space where beauty meets emotion, science meets art, and every individual gets a chance to feel renewed.
Whether behind the chair, on stage educating, or curating my favorite tools and products online, my goal is always the same: to help others feel beautiful and inspired.
I’ve always been drawn to deep conversations that never finish, quiet moments that spark creativity, and the science behind beauty.
I make countless plans and only accomplish a few — but each one helps me grow.
Exploring hair science and all the creative experiences that push me to bloom past boundaries are what keep me inspired every day.
A reflection of my creative world, both behind the chair and beyond it.
Insights, stories, and honest conversations that fuel growth.
Products and tools I truly love — shared to inspire and empower others.
Alongside my love for hair color science, I’m skilled at breaking down emotional barriers that clients bring to the chair — creating space for joy, confidence, and transformation.
I treat every head of hair as a canvas, combining inspiration, technique, and creativity to spark a true rebirth.
Because yes, hair, touch, and a listening ear truly have power — and it’s magical.
The world needs doers, adventurers, fearless spirits, and understanding hearts.
My inner “doer” pushes me to explore new adventures — in both personal and professional life.
From launching color lines to volunteering with Relay for Life, Curtain Call Community Theater, and Breast Cancer Alliance, I’ve seen how giving our skills away freely makes the world brighter.
For nearly a decade, I had the honor of being a traveling educator with Wella Professionals — experiences that shaped my love for collaboration and my desire to help others grow.
“The power is not in having it… but in giving it.”
— Nicole Faugno-Aleman
I believe in collaboration that sparks curiosity, elevates standards, and encourages a competition-less hair profession.
My purpose is simple — to keep creating, keep sharing, and keep learning.
Inspired by the Japanese concept of Ikigai — “a reason for being” — this space is my personal challenge outlet.
It’s where I share my favorite products, honest recommendations, and the tools that help me (and hopefully you) bloom every day.
Beyond the chair, my purpose expands into education, mentorship, and meaningful collaborations that build trust and spark opportunity within our creative community.
Guiding stylists and students to grow with confidence and curiosity.
Building authentic relationships that open doors across the beauty world.
Every strand tells a story. From subtle tones to bold transformations, each look is crafted with intention, creativity, and care.
