Ashley Brooks

Ashley launched her career in 2014 after graduating from Paul Mitchell The School, quickly rising as a sought-after talent in the beauty industry. Known for her signature Dimensional Blonding and mastery of the Hand-Tied Extension Method, she’s become one of Austin’s premier stylists - with clients traveling from across Texas to sit in her chair.

As the Founder and Owner of New City Blonde, Ashley is thoughtfully building a high-caliber team, hand-selecting and mentoring each stylist to ensure the salon’s elevated standard of artistry and care.

A native Texan who spent her early years in Arkansas, Ashley now proudly calls Austin home. Clients are drawn not only to her refined eye and warm presence, but also to her insider knowledge of the city’s best restaurants and coffee shops as well as insightful travel recommendations - she’s been to 9 countries and counting.
