Payton attended the Summit Salon Academy, graduating in 2025 and is currently training to become a Level One Stylist at Adorn. A big animal lover at heart, she spends much of her free time fostering kittens—her nurturing side always wants to be caring for something (or someone!). Horses hold a special place in her heart too; she’s been riding since she was 10 years old.

She truly cherishes time with family and friends and finds peace in the outdoors, soaking in the beauty of nature whenever she can. When she’s not at the salon, you’ll likely find her exploring new coffee shops or hunting for the perfect antique or thrifted find. Behind the chair, she loves creating blondes and effortless, lived-in looks, and is known for delivering fabulous blowouts while taking thoughtful time and care with every guest in her chair.
