It’s February and love is in the hair or is it air? In my world it all kinda runs together. What I love the most about February is the opportunity we have to remind each other how much we do love one another and with the current political climate, what a better time then to remind everyone how special they are to you.
Whether you have a beaux or just equally obsessed with your bff it feels great to spread a little joy and happiness. Beauty related gifts are unique, personal and with the growing small business scene our options are expanding beyond the gift certificate from your favorite salon.

About Anatalie David
Growing up in her mother’s salon instilled a die hard passion for the beauty industry, both creatively and managerially in Anatalie David. Anatalie made a name for herself in the service industry prior to becoming a stylist, as her natural administrative skills and zeal for customer service allowed her to emerge as the leader she is. Seeking a more creative profession, Anatalie sought a professional career as a cosmetologist in Texas. It was there that she began as an assistant stylist under two well-established salon owners and educators for Tigi and Loreal.
Dedicated to honing her craft and simultaneously learning the business of the salon industry, she branched out to study the techniques of other manufacturers such as Goldwell, Wella, and CHI as a Sales Consultant for a major beauty supply company. Anatalie decided to take her high level of professionalism, leadership, and customer service and relocate to Downtown Jersey City, NJ in 2012. She quickly was recruited and became the Lead Colorist as part of the opening staff at The Red Door in Union Square, New York City.
In 2014 Anatalie decided to embark on a new journey, combining her wide ranging beauty skill set with her resilient business and retail knowledge to create The Hair Room JC. While Anatalie has a look that’s hard to forget, it’s her range of technical skills that keeps clients loyal. Anatalie’s portfolio speaks volumes with extensive training in color, cutting, styling, and makeup.
Her true vigor for everything beauty and her earnest gratitude to her clients have been foundation of her success that she instills as the Owner of The Hair Room JC.
