Kelli Hoff joins Tabula Rasa Salon
This week I got to meet the new girl on Cannon St, Kelli Hoff. Kelli joined the team at Tabula Rasa Salon in downtown Charleston at 125 Cannon St, just a couple of weeks ago. Despite her new girl status, Kelli is making waves, she recently competed for and won a spot on the hair and make up team at Charleston Fashion Week, an experience she describes as grueling but exhilarating. As she brushes the hair behind the ear lobe of her perfectly coiffed client, she beams confidently. "I am doing what I love, in a city I love, who could complain?"Kelli is a South Carolina native, born in myrtle beach.. but raised in Charlottesville, VA. She started working in a salon as an assistant at 16, and traveled and trained with my boss/mentor to Chicago, NYC, Atlanta, DC, Orlando, and sooo many other east coast cities. ( where she was taught extensive color trends and techniques) in the mean time Kelli attended beauty school and receiving her license in 2003 afterwards she moved to San Diego where she worked, trained and did the hair color for a stylist that trained with Vidal Sassoon who had worked in the heart of Beverly Hills for 25 yrs. Kelli moved back to Charleston SC in 2010 and currently is a Matrix artistic educator. which allows her to travel and work with stylists that are as passionate about hair as she is!
