Healthy Hair, Intentional, Timeless.
Hi, I’m Katia Palacios, an independent hairstylist and colorist with 20 years of experience, specializing in premium grey blending and low-maintenance color at JR Beauty Studio in Springfield, New Jersey.
I work with busy professional women and moms who are done with harsh grow-outs, rushed appointments, and color that stops looking good weeks later.
Every service is designed around your lifestyle, not just an inspiration photo, with natural-looking highlights, lived-in blondes, dimensional brunettes, seamless grey blending, and precision cuts that grow out beautifully.
I work with one client at a time, start to finish, so your appointment is completely focused, unrushed, and personalized. No double booking, no shortcuts just intentional, high-level work from beginning to end.
Every appointment begins with a virtual consultation, because premium color isn’t an add-on here; it’s the standard.
Consultations are available in English and Spanish.
I’m proud to hold a 5.0-star rating across 87 Google reviews from clients who trust me with their hair, their time, and their confidence, and I’d love to earn yours.
About Me
Book your time. I’ll take care of the rest.
Come in knowing you’re in consistent, capable hands.
What My Ladies Expirience.
I’m extremely selective about who I trust with my hair, and Katia is the only stylist I’ve seen for the past four years.
Her color technique is flawless, and she creates an experience that feels personal and intentional.
You’re never just another client; she truly dedicates her time to you.

“Attentive, honest, and exceptionally skilled — especially with color.
She corrected my highlights more than once and always prioritized what’s best for my hair.
Integrity you can feel.”
-Ludmila Hopkinson.
“After disappointing experiences at high-end salons, Katia diagnosed the issue and transformed my hair with natural, personalized color and an exceptional cut.
She’s the most talented colorist I’ve found.”
