Dakota Talasek

Everything you need to know about me!

My name in Dakota Jo, I’ve been a stylist for over 3 years now! I specialize in “lived-in” balayage colors and am certified with IBE. I spend most of my days working or at the pig barn with my brother. My family and my cats are my world!


What inspired you to become a stylist?

My grandmother was a hairstylist since she was 16 years old, so I have been in and around the hair business my whole life. It just came natural to me; I get to be creative through all persons’ heads I touch.


What do you do when you’re not enhancing people’s beauty?

When I’m not enhancing people’s beauty you can usually find me at the school’s Ag Barn mentoring high schoolers with their pig projects for show, or at the lake with my family soaking up the summer sun.


What color describes your personality and why?

Lavender. It is soft and gentle just like my personality. It can also be a fun color to throw in the mix and add some spunk like me!


If you could be one hair product, what would you be and why?

‘Play Dirty Texture Spray’, because I add the finishing touch that everyone needs! And of course, the texture and fun!
