Born on the island of Guam and raised in the heart of small-town Colorado, Tara’s journey is anything but ordinary. After her dad left the military, her family landed in Eaton, CO—where big dreams had to fight their way out of small-town limits. Tara made her escape to Los Angeles, diving headfirst into the world of beauty. She sharpened her skills in makeup and hair school, even assisting on the hit show Nip/Tuck—a glimpse into the high-stakes glamour of Hollywood. But her roots and her grit pulled her back to Colorado, where she started humbly at JCPenney’s salon floor.
Then came the leap. With a few thousand dollars in savings, maxed-out credit cards, and a fire no bank could finance, Tara launched 303 Salons—a brand built on hustle, heart, and an obsession with excellence. Now with over 1,500 five-star reviews, it’s more than a salon. It’s a sanctuary. A statement. A movement.
From the moment you step through the doors, 303 is designed to make stylists and clients feel like the absolute best version of themselves. That was the mission from day one—and it’s still just the beginning. Tara didn’t just build a salon. She sparked a shift. And the movement? It’s only getting louder.
