OUR TEAM

  • Ashley

    I’m Ashley Gundersen, the founder of ASH Salon + Extensions and ASH Luxury Hair. Fueled by my love for hair, business, and marketing, I created a high-end salon centered around elevated experiences and effortless beauty. With 15 years of experience behind the chair, owning a beautiful salon filled with talented stylists has always been my dream. Education and growth remain my top priorities, and I’m committed to doing what no one else has done — raising the standard for modern, luxury hair.

Helping my clients look and feel their best through beautiful, healthy hair is my favorite part of what I do.

    When I’m out of the salon, I love hanging out with friends, watching a good TV show, and enjoying a well-earned happy hour. I can’t wait to see you in my chair soon!
