Meagan Gallman has been a licensed cosmetologist for 14+ years. She is a Custom Color Specialist from Mississippi. The Beauty Industry has always intrigued Meagan, even as a small child. As someone that always knew she would be a part of the greatest industry in the world, being “just a hairdresser” was never an option. That is when her passion to connect with other like-minded stylists began to flourish.
During her career, Meagan has become known for her advocacy for continuing education and her passion for teaching others in the industry. Meagan brings at least one newly graduated Cosmetologist into her salon per year and pours education into them as he or she assists with each guest. Her passion for education stemmed early in her career simply because there is plenty of room in our industry for everyone to succeed. Also, being from a small town, extended education opportunities were extremely limited in her area at the beginning of her career.
Finding continuing educations were exceedingly difficult and not found locally. Assisting programs were completely nonexistent. She does her absolute best to pour every ounce of information possible into elevating stylists to ensure success for each and every stylist that she meets.
Branded as a Sassy Southern Belle, Meagan brings her spicy personality into every custom hair creation for her guests. Known for her unique transformations on her Instagram (@megnaomihair,) she shines in Color Corrections, drastic Color Transformations, and styling. As a salon owner in her hometown and former salon manager in a neighboring city, her drive for business has created an incredible work ethic.
Meagan is a Joico Master Artist, Olivia Garden Educator, Salon Owner, and Beauty Launchpad Magazine Education Team Member. In the last few years, Meagan’s passion for Color Education has skyrocketed to a new level. Since being hired for Joico in 2017, Meagan has had the opportunities to work alongside and assisted onstage some of the most prestigious names in the beauty industry. And by doing so, she is easily able to share the JOI of Healthy Hair to other stylists eager to learn as well as teaching trending techniques that are friendly to both the novice and
Meagan has been featured in several beauty magazine publications including, Modern Salon, Armstrong McCall, Sophisticates Hairstyle Guide, Salon Magazine UK, Mississippi Magazine, and received her first cover on Woman Entrepreneur Magazine. She is also a guest writer for multiple beauty publications.
Although no one was surprised that Meagan decided to pursue a career in the beauty industry, many were not supportive. In fact, many people were very discouraging, and it is for that reason that Meagan has been quoted in saying, “You can’t live your life dwelling on the past based on the cards you were dealt before. Suck it up, create your own luck, and then proudly present your Royal Flush.”
