Meet the stylist

Michele Von Gunten


From a young age, Michele realized that she was passionate about the beauty industry. She decided to pursue an education in Cosmetology at Empire Beauty School in Laconia, New Hampshire. Once she graduated school in 2014, Michele started her stylist career at an exclusive spa in the beautiful Lakes Region of New Hampshire. With intentions of working as a stylist in New York City, Michele took classes and certifications to elevate her knowledge in the hair field, including the Goldwell Master Colorist Program.

In 2018 Michele followed her dreams to New York City and began working as a Lead Stylist and Technical Trainer at Hair and Co Bklyn. In the same year she was hired to be a Goldwell Academy Educator. As a Goldwell Educator, Michele has certified many stylists from all over the country with their Master Colorist Certification. Through her experience as an Educator, she has gained extensive training in color that has elevated her service for her clients behind the chair.

In 2022 Michele decided it was time to lay her own foundation, and run her own business. She opened Mint Bklyn Hair Studio in the trendy Williamsburg Brooklyn. Michele specializes in all things color, and cutting on all types of hair, from pin straight to coily curls. She provides gender neutral pricing for all of her guests. Michele believes that beautiful color comes with healthy hair, and vows to put protecting the integrity of your hair at the forefront of every service. She absolutely loves being in this industry and building relationships with her clients. She aims to provide a studio that makes everyone feel heard, comfortable, relaxed, and well taken care of. Michele’s goal after each appointment is to make sure you leave the studio feeling renewed and confident, with your hair in Mint condition!
