happen by accident,
it happens by
appointment.

“Lisa has been cutting my hair for 13 years. Not only is she like Edward Scissorhands in that her cuts are precise, but she is great at assessing how your hair lies naturally and
cuts it so you can easily replicate her styling. Also, very importantly, Lisa really listens
when you tell her what you want!
I trust Lisa implicitly and cannot
recommend her highly enough!”

“I can’t speak highly enough of my amazing stylist Lisa Sexton. I’ve been a client for over a decade, and have followed her to her new location because I can’t imagine anyone else cutting or coloring my hair. Lisa is thoughtful, attentive, and talented. My hair looks and feels fantastic after every appointment. And I leave refreshed and confident. She has cheerfully juggled schedules to fit me in last minute or to accommodate my ever-changing work schedule. I very rarely write reviews, but this one was a no brainer. Make an appointment. You’ll love the way you look and feel after she’s worked her magic. I promise.”

“Lisa has been doing my hair for about 8 years, and has helped me through many phases of hair trauma - hair loss, grays, and numerous color and style changes! She listens to my ideas; we discuss what’s best for me. She finds a way to accommodate my schedule, and always has a smile. Her salon is bright, clean, and professional. Parking is easy, and it’s close to the freeways.”

Lisa Sexton
Owner
The Hair Ranch
This past May, I made the move to Palm Desert after more than 20 years of doing hair in Los Angeles. I was ready for a little more sunshine, a slower pace, and the chance to bring my passion for hair and beauty to this beautiful community.
My love for this industry started early. Growing up in Upstate New York, I earned my cosmetology license right out of high school and opened my first salon at just 23. From there, my journey took me to San Francisco, where I worked with L’Oréal and eventually became their Educational Manager for the Southwest, teaching stylists the art of hair color. While I loved mentoring professionals, I realized my heart was happiest working directly with clients — creating color, cuts, and styles that made them feel like the best version of themselves.
Over the years, I’ve worked in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, and even at a prestigious color salon on Madison Avenue in New York City before returning to Los Angeles in 2004. Each step has deepened my love for what I do and taught me the importance of not just creating beautiful hair, but also helping clients understand how to care for it.
Now, I’m thrilled to bring that experience here to Palm Desert. Whether you’re looking for dimensional color, seamless extensions, or simply a fresh new style, my goal is always the same: to provide beautiful results in a welcoming, comfortable space — and to make sure you leave feeling confident and cared for.
If you ever have questions, my chair is always a place to ask them. Healthy, beautiful hair is a partnership, and I believe every client deserves to feel educated, supported, and celebrated.
