Shelby Beall

Meet Shelby — a sharp-witted Libra with a love for bold color, big plants, and even bigger heart.

A native Atlantan and Aveda-trained artist, Shelby specializes in curls, balayage, and vivids, creating hair that speaks volumes—literally and metaphorically. Inspired by the effortlessly cool Kristen Stewart, she approaches her craft with the same unapologetic edge and authenticity. Her go-to product? Bumble & Bumble Curl Crème, of course.

Shelby’s superpower is helping people creatively and confidently express their identity through hair. One of her favorite career moments? Giving a gender-affirming haircut that brought her client to joyful tears. For Shelby, hair is more than a service—it’s a statement.

When she’s not behind the chair, you’ll find her devouring books, buying yet another plant she definitely doesn’t need (she’s up to 21), or listening to her favorite psychological deep-dive podcasts. Her candle scent of choice? A grounding blend of sandalwood and cedar—perfect for decompressing after a day of transformation.

Shelby chose Helmet because it’s a space that celebrates individuality, creativity, and authenticity—for both the team and the clients. Her hidden talent? She can (and will) crush a debate anytime, anywhere. She’s got a quick mind, a sharp tongue, and a soft spot for Twizzlers.

Spirit animal? HeiHei the chicken—chaotic, loyal, and somehow always ends up where they’re meant to be.

As RuPaul famously said: “You can call me whatever you want as long as you call me.” And we call Shelby one of the greats.
