Cori Mast

Owner / Masterstylist / Redken Educator

Welcome to Nirvana! I’m Cori and I’m so happy to be here! I began my career in the beauty industry at just 17 years old, becoming a licensed cosmetologist before graduating high school through a career center program. I started at Personal Images as the salon owner’s assistant, where I quickly fell in love not only with the craft, but with the culture, and connection that this industry offers.

I quickly immersed myself in Redken education—earning certifications, continuing advanced training, and eventually auditioning to become a Redken Artist and Educator. After being accepted, I had the incredible opportunity to travel across the country teaching, learning, and refining my artistry alongside some of the industry’s best.

As life evolved and I began raising my family here in Jackson, my focus shifted closer to home. I poured my energy into my salon family being ann associate trainer, teaching in my own salon every day! Then, alongside my two partners, proudly stepped into salon ownership—continuing the legacy of Personal Images while creating space for growth, wellness, and authenticity.

At the heart of everything I do is a deep love for art, creativity, and genuine relationships. If you’ve ever sat in my chair, I hope you felt truly seen, connected, and cared for. My life’s work has been rooted in helping people feel most like their authentic selves—through beauty, and personalized wellness routines that support confidence from the inside out.

Sarah Rose

Masterstylist

Hello, I am Sarah Rose! I have been in my industry since 1990. I have had the opportunity to watch the industry change and evolve, granting me the thrill of continuing my education and fine tuning my skillset. My focus started with color and design and has expanded to include specialty facials, relaxing body treatments and pedicures. I enjoy the detail of working with skin and hair, while relaxing the mind and inspiring the soul.

Tracy Fogg

Masterstylist

Tracy here! I have been in the industry since 1998. Being a stylist was the perfect choice for me because I love doing hair and it allowed me to be with my kids. Throughout my career I have gained advanced Redken and Pureology knowledge and have since become a Certified Cutting Specialist. I have also taken advanced classes with Tammy Taylor and advanced curly hair classes. My specialties include curly hair, short hair, men’s hair, and color. I love growing with my clients and making their wishes come true.

Jordyn Roberts

Hi, I am Jordyn! I joined the industry in spring of 2020 at Douglas J Aveda Institute in Ann Arbor. I love creating art and making others happy, and this industry has allowed me to do just that. I am currently continuing my education by working as an associate under Cori. Working as an associate is allowing me to learn different advanced skills to ensure I provide the best experience possible for my guests. I look forward to continuing my education in hair color and blonding, hair extensions, and nails. I am so glad to be a part of the Personal Images family. I truly feel like I found my home away from home, and my goal is that each of my guests will be able to feel that same comfort as well!

kallie valdez

Kallie Valdez

Hey, I’m Kallie. I’m a fully licensed esthetician here at Nirvana and I’m genuinely obsessed with what I do. I’m totally one of those pimple popping loving people who lives for a good extraction (properly of course!) almost as much as I live for feeling my client’s faces melt away into complete relaxation during my massage. Knowing what products to use, when to use them, why you’re using them and how to use them in your routine can all be so overwhelming. It’s my goal to assist those who want to understand and enjoy their skin/skincare routines in the most authentic and relatable ways possible.

My favorite days are the kind where I have a full schedule mix of all my services including facials, full body waxing, brows, lash lifts and body treatments as well as makeup. I have some of the best educators/education behind my back and I’m just dying to share all of my knowledge. I’m all about good vibes, better brows and loving your mind, body ,soul and skin always.
