Ashley Willoughby

Esthetician

Ashley’s from Belews Creek, North Carolina and has lived in the Piedmont-Triad area all her life. She started her career as an esthetician in 2021 but knew that’s what she wanted to do after experiencing an extremely tough skin season dealing with Cystic Acne. While looking for ways to heal her skin, she fell in love with skincare. Knowing how traumatic and isolating skin problems can be, she also made it her mission to help others overcome their skin challenges too.

Her favorite esthetic service is the HydraFacial. Besides the fact that it’s an incredible service overall, she loves that it's highly customizable to each individual. She can get very specific and target each client’s skin challenges or problem areas. HydraFacials also pair seamlessly with other services.

Ashley’s biggest skin fixes have revolved around troubleshooting acne issues. She knows all too well how it is to deal with acne and finds it incredibly satisfying to help her clients combat it.

While not an esthetician, her favorite mentor is Lauryn Bosstick, author of “Get the F*ck Out of The Sun.” Her book has a wealth of information and makes the skincare basics accessible and easy to learn for everyone. She’s also an amazing human being, a mom, and an entrepreneur.

When she isn’t at the salon, Ashley loves reading, listening to podcasts (anything that makes her feel like her brain is growing), and hanging out with her daughter Reece and their dog Dolly.

Ashley 's Top At-Home Skincare Tip:

• Use SPF—it should be the foundation of your skincare routine. Without it, everything in your routine is money down the drain. Seriously.​
