Gaddie

Hey y’all! I’m Gaddie — a licensed cosmetologist based in New Orleans, Louisiana, originally from Oxford, Mississippi. I specialize in everything from balayage and lived-in blondes to men’s cuts, event styling, and makeup.

I started out doing event hair and makeup in high school and college, and after a career change, I jumped into cosmetology school in 2020. I’ve been behind the chair ever since and loving it! I spent the past few years working in Madison, MS before my husband and I moved to the New Orleans area for his medical residency at Ochsner.

My goal is simple: I want every client to feel safe, seen, and so refreshed when they leave my chair. Whether you’re coming in for a transformation or a touch-up, I want you to feel comfortable, confident, and cared for .

When I’m not in the salon, I’m probably reading fantasy or romance novels, working on a new embroidery or crochet project, or singing along to the Jonas Brothers (big fan, no shame). I also adore all things Disney and hanging out with my three fur babies — Louise, Gumbo, and our springer spaniel Leo.

Thanks for being here — I can’t wait to meet you and help you feel your best .
