MEGAN KIEFER

  • An Orange County native, I began my hair career in Newport Beach in 2001. Building a strong clientele of women who demand high quality and detail in their look. Known for my long-lasting blowdries, I opened East Eighteenth Salon in 2018 with the intention of creating a comfortable and inspiring environment for stylists and clients to feel their best- A safe space with no ego, bringing out confidence and beauty in our team of stylists as well as our clients.

    Making it a point to keep on trend and continue my education in color, cut and styling, I’ve learned from and studied under some of the industry greats. It may take a little more time and cost a little more money but the outcome of the artistry in undeniable. 

    I thrive on the science behind hair and coloring it. Focusing on keeping the hair healthy while creating each signature style. I specialize in custom color while maintaining the integrity of the hair as a canvas for my art.

MAYSON MONTOYA

  • I started at East Eighteenth about 4 years ago, 2 of those years were spent assisting the best Lauren Stalcup! I learned so much I couldn’t have asked for a better mentor. Be surrounded by so many talented people has made me the stylist I am today. I went on my own in 2021, I definitely would say I mostly specialize in lived in color and cutting but love doing it all. I absolutely love what I do and am so grateful for the friendships I’ve made with not only my coworkers but all my clients as well and can’t wait for many more!
