Danielle schmidt
We are pretty sure that Danielle was born with a clipper and a comb in her hands. She has a huge passion for haircutting and creating trendy fashions for men and women alike since she was in high school. Just after obtaining her license and graduating, she began pushing herself to be the best hairdresser she could be. This is where she knew she was passionate about creating beautiful and unique hair designs. After more than a decade in the cosmetology field, Danielle went on to open Hilltop Hair Studio LLC in the spring of 2013. Danielle is a cutting-edge specialist with a strong focus on men's cutting.
