Andrea Cwynar (Owner & Master Stylist Specializing in Cutting) took an interest in visual arts at a very early age. In 1991 she began an extensive apprenticeship with a group of formally trained Sassoon based stylists. This led her on a path to various Vidal Sassoon Academies in the US and UK mastering the art of precision haircutting. Two years after becoming a stylist at Jungle Red, she and Scott Mishina took the plunge, and became owners. Together, they formed an amazing partnership, and put into place a culture that would surpass their original expectations of ownership. Last year, after fourteen years of partnering with Scott, Andrea became the sole proprietor of Jungle Red.

As a seasoned stylist offering a range in expertise, she believes in consistent dedication, education and inspiration, and continues to work side by side with her staff to create only the highest standard of haircare available.

She has dedicated five years to Jungle Red and is now a Senior Stylist, Hair Color Specialist and Network Educator for Bumble and Bumble.

Katie Rose ( apprentice ) has always had an eye for style and detail. She discovered her passion for hair over the years while experimenting on herself and others. " I love how changing your hair can change how you feel about yourself." She decided to pursue her license in cosmetology because she wanted to be in the business of making people look & feel great while expressing herself creatively.
