Our Stylists
Whitney Smith
Born and raised right here in Delray Beach I get the honor of working in my hometown. I graduated cosmetology school at the top of my class and have now worked in this industry for over 15 years. I’ve been so blessed to work with amazing talent and to have learned from some of the best. I specialize in balayage, double process blonde, keratin treatments, and hair extensions. I am certified by Greatlengths, Platinum Seamless, and Marcia Keratin Treatments. I strive to get to know my clients so that I can guide them to having the best hair that not only looks great on them but works for their lifestyle. Education is a key component to making sure I am always keeping up with the latest trends. Outside of the salon I am a daughter, sister, mom, wife, and friend. When I’m not playing with hair you can find me spending time with the ones I love.  I am thankful God has blessed me with my talent and want to continue to honor Him as I help my clients look and feel their best.

Carol Heffernan
I’ve been at Shears Of Faith for a little over two years. I grew up in Delray Beach and lived in Houston for 26 years. I’ve been back home in Delray eight years. As a single, empty nest, retired hairstylist, I needed something else in my life. Missing the salon environment, I decided to do what made me happy and return to the salon two days a week. Through the grace of God, I found Shears Of Faith and Whitney has created the perfect role for me. Not wanting to meet the demands of a busy clientele, I am the salon floater. I do a little bit of everything. I help our stylists and serve our clients in various ways. I spend time coordinating things to keep the salon running smoothly as well as working behind the chair. In addition to men’s haircuts, if a stylist is unable to place a client on their schedule, I am there to help out. You can be booked with me, but your stylist will formulate your color. This makes our salon unique as we all work together to be sure our clients can receive the service they need in a timely fashion.
Alicia
Alicia and I relocated from Wyoming to Delray Beach 2-1/2 years ago with my husband and young children. I am fairly new to the hair industry and have been passionate about hair and makeup since I was very young. I love all things hair; from blonding, to lived in color, and balayage. I do keratin treatments, men's and women’s haircuts, updos and makeup. I am certified in Keratin Complex. I graduated at the top of my class from Robert Fiance Cosmetology school in Boynton Beach Florida. I was the top requested senior stylist at the school when I graduated. I know that continuing education is key in this industry and I am very blessed to be working in an amazing salon that makes continuing education a priority. When I’m not at the salon you can find me enjoying the outdoors with my family or curling up with a good book.
