Background

About Keitha Taylor

Greetings, I’m Keitha (she/her)—a licensed cosmetologist, award-winning salon business strategist, and versatile leader passionate about growing businesses, developing talent, and building strong, culture-driven teams. Throughout my career, I’ve successfully transitioned between diverse roles including Salon Business Partner, Account Executive, Boutique Manager, and Operations Leader. From converting 100+ salon accounts to direct partnerships, to negotiating multi-location deals exceeding $1M in annual potential, I’ve built a track record of driving territory growth, increasing retail sales by up to 35%, and leading transformational education initiatives in both luxury and high-volume markets. What fuels me is the opportunity to solve meaningful problems, coach individuals into their potential, and contribute to organizations that prioritize both people and performance. I thrive in dynamic, team-oriented environments that value innovation, diversity, and intentional leadership. With a proactive mindset and a strong foundation in relationship-building, I bring strategic thinking, operational know-how, and an authentic enthusiasm for elevating the teams and businesses I serve. While my roots are in the beauty industry, I’m open to new opportunities beyond the salon space—especially roles that allow me to lead multi-unit teams, scale programs, and shape the future of customer experience and people development at the district or VP level. Let’s connect if you’re looking for a growth-minded, people-driven leader who turns insight into action and vision into results.
