Jess brings over 22 years of experience in the beauty industry and opened Jade Salon 11 years ago.

Lash Artist & Stylist
Rosita Gonzalez
Rosita has been in the beauty industry since June 2015 when she began cosmetology school and graduated in March 2016. Her passion for hairstyling began at the young age of 10 when she was the go-to person in her family for doing her cousins' hair while they spent time together. This early experience sparked her love for creating beauty and connecting with others through hair.
When working with clients, Rosita always asks them what they’d like to change about their hair, making sure to guide the conversation toward what will best suit their hair type and lifestyle. She enjoys styling hair and loves the satisfaction of seeing a look come together, especially when it involves cutting and shaping long hairstyles.
