OWNER & JOURNEYMAN HAIRSTYLIST
Colleen Eckl
I have been in this amazing industry for over 25 years. Throughout my career as a hairdresser, my most rewarding aspect of it has been owning and running Designer Styles. We have been open since 2010 and I have loved every challenge. I have been fortunate enough to build some very important and lifelong relationships with all my clients. Between us, Trent and I have four daughters and an adorable granddaughter. I am so grateful that I am still very passionate about my career and I love coming to work every day!

I have been working in the hair industry since 2006, and at Designer Styles since opening day. I am blessed to have developed incredible friendships with many amazing clients. I was born and raised in Humboldt and now I am living in Muenster with my husband Jeremy, raising our two children Jaycie and Dash. When I am not at work, you will most likely find me at the bowling alley or at our favorite place, the lake.

Kairee Szautner
I have been a stylist at Designer Styles since August 2011. I take regular courses to keep up with the latest trends and maintain my colour and product knowledge. I am dedicated to getting results you love and making the health of your hair a top priority. When you leave my chair, I want you to feel as refreshed as you look. I live in Muenster with my husband, Benji, and daughter Wren. When not at work, you will find me spending time with my family or relaxing at the lake.

Ashley Knutson
I knew from a very young age that I wanted to be a hairstylist and have been in the industry since 2007 and at Designer Styles since 2015. Over the years, I have added services to my career, which is such an amazing thing to be able to offer my clients. I am always learning about new trends and keeping up with “what’s next”. I love everything about the hair world, but especially love creating up-styles for special occasions. My husband, Lance and I live in Annaheim with our two beautiful girls, Sway and Parker. As a family, we enjoy the outdoors, camping, quadding, and sledding.

Kaitlyn Biehn
I have been in the hair and esthetics industry since 2015. From a young age, I knew I wanted a career in hair and esthetics and was always practicing on anyone that would let me. I love having a job that I enjoy so much that it doesn’t even feel like I am going to “work”. I thrive on making people feel like the best version of themselves, and that’s what makes this industry so rewarding. When I’m not at work, I like to spend time with my family, especially with my husband, Zack and our two beautiful daughters. In the summer, you can find me at the lake, or on the golf course.

RECEPTIONIST
Doreen Reinhart
I’m one of the first people you see when coming to Designer Styles. I have been here from the start, setting up the bookkeeping system and helping to get ready for opening. My husband, Ron, and I are the third generation to have raised our family on the Reinhart farm, where we still live. We have three grown children, two sons-in-law, and five grandchildren. When I am not at work, I enjoy reading and cooking, as well as camping with my family, or cheering on the grandkids.
RECEPTIONIST
Melissa Bay
I have been a part of the Designer Styles team since 2012. I value building connections with the people who walk through the salon doors and working alongside an amazing group of ladies. Expressing my creative side wherever I can is the highlight of my job. I have also been a Pre-K Educational Associate at St. Dominic School since 2008. Being in a classroom full of kids fills my soul with joy! My husband, Todd and I live in Humboldt with our children Brehanna and Kieran, and our fur-princess, Willow. In my spare time, I am at my lake home, camping and kayaking. I also love cooking, gardening, and creating DIY projects of all kinds.
RECEPTIONIST
Destiny Therres
I have been working here for four years and have enjoyed every minute. My job involves greeting everyone who walks through the door, booking appointments, and making sure the salon is taken care of. I was born and raised in Humboldt and I am currently in my first year of commerce. When I am not working or at school, I like to spend my spare time with family and friends, travelling, and being outside.
