Cecilia Winter Rocks Life in Bold Color

Excerpt from Dallas Voyage Magazine February 19, 2020

I graduated high school at 17 and started cosmetology school only one month after. I pretty much knew I wanted to be a hair artist from an early age. My grandmother was a stylist in the 70s, at a little beauty shop in Mexico. She used to dye her hair “psychedelic” colors. For me personally, that is where my initial inspiration came from and still comes from today.

I graduated from cosmetology school and took a break from hair for about a year to be a stay at home mom. I had missed my passion too much and just had to get back to creating. I have been doing hair now for about seven years and I absolutely love it. I’ve always been a creative soul and being in this industry, I get to allow that creativity and art to flow.

I had been working for six years at different salons and even doing a little freelance hair and makeup on the side, before finding my way to my current salon home, Panther City Salon. I had been following this particular Salon on social media for quite some time, and I remember telling my husband how one day, I was going to make it to a place like that and become a real artist. With the support of him, my clients, and my family, I am finally there. I absolutely love being my own boss, for me it’s not work, it’s my hobby. It’s my passion, and the look on my client’s faces after an insane color transformation is the most rewarding feeling. I wouldn’t trade it for any other job.

I specialize in Vivid colors, color corrections, and blondes. I’ve had the opportunity to work for some amazing salons and worked with talented photographers, and filmographies, and have been featured on a few of my favorite salon professional color lines, social media. I’m most proud of being able to have had such great opportunities and experiences in this industry., and I love seeing all the doors that open with my career. I would say what sets me apart from others is my compassion, kindness, and the ability to find the light in a dark situation. I’m always professional and I never let my emotions or personal issues get in the way of that. I also have my own style and have always stayed true to being myself and rocking that.
