From a young age, Rachel Bodt was captivated by salon life, observing her mother and other skilled stylists as they effortlessly transferred their clients’ hair. Fueled by her passion to enter the beauty industry herself, she moved to New York City. She enrolled at the Aveda Institute and honed her hair coloring expertise under the guidance of distinguished mentors. Now with over twenty years of experience, Rachel is celebrated for drawing inspiration from various decades and seamlessly weaving them into a cohesive style. Her skill of referencing past eras translates beautifully into the fashion world as well, with her working with top models for Balenciaga, Chloe, Saint Laurent, and Marine Serre during Fashion Week.

Rachel’s approach to coloring is a personalized art form tailored to meet the needs of each client. Her celebrity clientele includes Beyonce, Lorde, Emma Roberts, Barbie Ferreira, Kate Hudson, Frank Ocean, Emily Ratajkowski, Tilda Swinton, Michelle Williams, etc. with her editorial work featured in Vogue, W Magazine, CR Fashion Book, Elle, and Harper’s Bazaar.

Now, as the proud owner of Homecoming Salon, Rachel extends her expertise to a diverse clientele. Whether catering to her regular clients, A-List celebrities, or collaborating with magazine editors outside of her editorial work, Rachel’s commitment to excellence and her passion for her job is shown through her salon.
