BRIANA MCDONALD

She immersed herself into the beaded row methods years ago (NBR, IBE & Luna), including 2.5 years in the NBR Mastermind program - which was extensive training on the methodology, technique and art of hand tied extensions as well as the business behind it, all of which included many hundreds of hours of in-person & online training. After spending tens of thousands traveling the country and learning the most innovative methods on the market, Bri took the best things from all of the techniques and created her very own hand tied extensions process that solved many of the problems she was having with the other methods.

In 2021, Bri was honored to be chosen by the top producer of luxury hair extensions in the United States to be a part of Covet & Mane’s The Coveted, which is a curated collection of the top stylists across the country that specialize in hand-tied hair extensions.

Hair extensions transformations have revived her passion for hair and they inspire her to continue to see more and more lives changed.

On the weekends Bri enjoys living her best beach life with her husband Matt and her 2 year old Husky, Hannah! They are foodies and love seeking out amazing new restaurants. As you’ll see when you visit Green + Anchor Salon, she also has a huge love for indoor plants!

Bri grew up between Southern California & Portland, Oregon - She began her hair career in Portland and has now been in sunny San Diego for over 8 years. With 18+ years in the hair industry Bri has focused most of her career on the art of hair color as well as making the switch to taking a more holistic & healthy approach to hair.

 In January 2018 Bri opened Green + Anchor Salon to offer stylists & clients a place to get their hair done without being exposed to the harmful chemicals found in most hair color & products. Within the very first year, Green + Anchor was featured in San Diego Magazine, Modern Luxury, and selected as Best of San Diego!

In addition to being passionate about clean beauty & the non-toxic lifestyle, Bri can also sympathize with those not having the hair they desire and out of that need created her entire business to revolve around hair extensions.

Over the years, Bri has done extensive training in extensions + color and loves nothing more than to give a woman her confidence back with the help of the most natural looking + feeling hair extensions. She has been trained and certified in over 7 different hair extension methods/brands.
