About Kayla

Hi, I’m Kayla, a Holistic Esthetician, Instructor, and mentor passionate about whole-person healing and helping others shine from the inside out.

My journey began in 2008 when I graduated from The Euro Institute of Skin Care in the Pacific Northwest. Little did I know then, I’d one day return to that same place, not as a student, but as a full-time instructor helping future estheticians find their path. Since 2019, I’ve had the honor of teaching and mentoring students at The Euro Institute, guiding them not just in technique, but in confidence and purpose.

Alongside teaching, I run my own practice, Holistic Beauty by Kayla, where I offer holistic skin care, Ayurvedic facials, Eyelash Enhancements, and Hair Removal. My approach combines science, soul, and self-care because true beauty, to me, is deeply connected to well-being and self-love.

I’m also a mom to an amazing 10 year old son, and together we love taking road trips and making memories. Motherhood has deepened my passion for creating space for women to feel empowered, supported, and seen whether they’re clients, students, or fellow estheticians.

I believe in lifelong learning and am always exploring new ideas in healing, energy, and consciousness. My work is my calling, and my mission is simple: to help people feel their best, trust their intuition, and follow their dreams.

My Ayurvedic Approach to Skin + Wellness

As an Ayurvedic Wellness Coach, my approach to skin care goes far beyond the surface.

I’ve spent years studying the ancient science of Ayurveda and integrating it into holistic esthetics with a deep respect for the connection between body, mind, and spirit.

I have extensive experience in Ayurvedic facials, using intentional touch, organic oils, and healing herbs to calm the nervous system and support your body’s natural rhythms. I believe our hands hold powerful energy and when used with care and presence, they can help unlock deep healing.

Each treatment is customized based on your unique dosha (mind-body constitution), because what works for one person may not be right for another. Relaxing the nervous system, honoring your inner balance, and restoring harmony within this is where true skin health begins.

And because gut health is skin health, I take a whole-body view of beauty and well-being. My goal is always to help you feel grounded, nurtured, and radiant inside and out.
