Where hair artistry
meets intention
Hey, I’m Kelli — your go-to for dream hair that actually fits your life.
Think luxury lived-in color, hair cuts that look like Pinterest, and scalp spa facials that feel more like a nervous system reset than a salon service. I blend high-end artistry with real self-care, so you leave looking gorgeous and feeling grounded.
Hair magic meets full-body exhale — welcome to your new favorite ritual.
Lived in luxury hair color
Lived-in color is effortless, dimensional hair color designed to grow out beautifully—perfect for the modern Michigan woman who wants to feel confident, low-maintenance, and always put together. It’s tailored to your personal style and schedule, making every day a great hair day without constant touch-ups. This is luxury hair color that fits your real life.

Luxury scalp spa facials
Healthy hair starts at the root—and your scalp deserves just as much love as your strands.
My signature scalp spa experiences are where holistic wellness meets head-turning results. These services aren’t just for relaxation (though you might never want to leave the shampoo bowl). Each treatment is designed to detox buildup, rebalance oil production, calm irritation, boost circulation, and support real hair growth from the inside out.
Whether you’re dealing with thinning, shedding, dryness, oiliness, or just want to invest in truly healthy hair—this is your sign.

INTRODUCING THE HOLISTIC WORLD OF ARETE
Meet your hairstylist Kelli Mason
Experience:
After two decades of mastering hair artistry, energy work, and entrepreneurship — including being a former salon owner — I’ve reignited my passion for offering the best luxury, bespoke hair experience right here in Midland, MI.
Personal life:
As a busy mom, I am blessed to focus entirely on what I love: curating custom hair and promoting health and wellness. A firm believer in living life to the fullest, pushing boundaries, and staying grounded through yoga, I approach every hair appointment as a chance to create a look that aligns with your lifestyle and personal expression.
Journey:
My journey has been a whirlwind, from creating iconic looks on the runways of New York Fashion Week, to being featured in Modern Salon and Behind the Chair, winning Eufora’s Colorist of the Year in 2019, and reaching the finals at the Behind the Chair Awards in 2016. I’m passionate about designing low-maintenance, natural styles that bring out your best features and leave you feeling effortlessly beautiful. Let’s make your hair as unique and vibrant as you are!
