Meet Merrill

Q & A

WITH MERRILL HOPPER:

how long have you been transforming hair?

Since 2003.

fun fact:

Not very many people know this, but Mark & I used to be a part of a high flying trapeze team!! We were really quite good!

what do you love most about living in nashville?

The people & the relationships I’ve made during my time here…oh! and also, Five Points Pizza :)

YOU’RE STRANDED ON A DESERTED ISLAND AND ONLY HAVE ONE BOOK WITH YOU. WHICH ONE IS IT?

The Imitation of Christ by Thomas a’Kempis.

which plant best represents you as a person?

A fern. I love resting by the trees & woodland landscapes. I need just the right humidity for my fronds to flourish. I tend to become overwhelmed if my safe, protected environment is exposed to extreme change, and do not like to be handled roughly as my roots can be quite tender & delicate.

Most favorite thing about being a hair stylist?

I love a good haircut that grows out well while still retaining its shape. From the short & piecy, to the modern shag & luciously long locks, texture and shape is everything to me. I am passionate about working with each individual clients hair to give them a style that grows with them.
