What People are Saying...

Erin is awesome! I was in desperate need of an Invisible Bead Extensions move-up after moving. It's always a bit scary to trust your hair to a new stylist but Erin is wonderful. She is very knowledgeable and professional. I felt at ease right away. She did a beautiful job and I've already scheduled my next appointment. I'm so happy and relieved to have found my new hair artist so quickly!                                                                - Heidi

"IBE has been a life changer! ALL I need to feel confident is full, long hair, and I'm good to go. As a first time extension wearer, IBE has been an easy transition from my natural hair. I can wear my hair any way I want to without worrying about my extensions showing. They are extremely comfortable and sometimes I forget I even have extensions!"                                                        - Isabelle 

Erin is seriously amazing! She is so friendly & really listens to your hair wants and needs. I have naturally curly hair & she is the first stylist I've ever been to that catered the cut to the look great with straight AND curly styles I wear.                                                                                      - Patricia

THE OBSIDIAN HAIR STORY

Hello and Welcome to your new salon home! Thank you so much for your interest in joining me in my journey of changing the world...one head of hair at a time, 

​

My name is Erin Backman. I am a full time hairstylist, who specializes in Invisible Bead Extensions and Customized Reds.

I've spent most of my career in color training as an educator and in the past 3 years in offering hair extensions because I am passionate about creating beautiful hair for my fine hair ladies! 

​

My top priority as a hairstylist is to make sure that you feel HEARD and confident with your hair extensions day to day. 

​

I always strive to provide you with education and solutions to solve the difficulties you may have with your hair, all while achieving the results you are looking for between your hair appointments. 

​

During my time off you'll find me spending quality time with my family and friends or even at Disneyland for a quick getaway. I think that following your passions in life and integrating them into your daily life as much as possible is vital for overall happiness, so I'll always encourage you to do the same! 

​

My long term career goal is to reach a point where I have enough resources to not only be a job creator but also give back to our amazing community. I truly believe hairstylists have the power to positvity influence our communities through connection. 

I'm also deeply invested in the continued efforts to support anti-racist and LGBTQIA+ inclusivity in our industry and community as a whole. Everyone deserves to have beautiful hair in a safe environment. 

If you'd like to join me in my efforts to change the world and our community, one head of hair at a time, while also getting the hair of your dreams, you can click the link below to book an appointment with me. I look forward to having the opportunity to meet and take care of you.
