Hair Artist
Whether it’s a simple trim or a drastic color change I love to do it all! Going through the journey that is life, I’ve always appreciated art and all of its mediums. From sculpting to painting in college I’ve developed a passion to do the same with hair. There’s nothing more awesome then doing what you’re passionate about and at the same time making someone’s day special. That’s what we have the opportunity to do! I grew up in Cary, NC with my twin brother and older sister just a mile away from the salon so a natural born “Caryite,” so if you’re new to town, ask away! I'm always growing in this industry and as a salon we strongly value continuing education. I look forward to meeting you all and working with you time and time again. Reach high and grow deep!
Amy Wareham
Hair Artist
For over 16 years in the industry, I have loved sharing in the lives of those who sit in my chair and giving them the foundation to love what they see in the mirror. Being a tomboy with curly hair and not carrying too much about makeup - being a hairstylist was not the clear choice!
Upon realizing that engineering was not my passion at NCSU, I asked myself, “What job could you love everyday?” The answer was simple - I loved any day that my blown out straight and smooth. So the answer was simple - be a hairstylist!
I am a Certified Redken Specialist and have traveled to New York, Las Vegas, Austin, and many other cities to keep my education current and on trend. I have spend the last 10 mentoring stylists, by teaching them technical cutting and color skills to build a solid foundation. My heart Will always be with brunettes, curls, grey blending/grow outs, and EVERY single cut you could ever dream of.
When I’m not in the salon, I am with family and friends. Being outside camping, hiking, and enjoying the quieter parts of life soothe my soul. Food is my other passion and the rumor may Be true that I love to post food pics more than hair pics!
Caroline Sabatini
Hair Artist
I was originally born and raised in Northern Virginia and after moving to North Carolina just weeks before my freshman year of high school, it forced me to jump outside of my comfort zone to become an outgoing bubbly person! I quickly made friends that have lasted almost a decade. Those acquired people skills allowed me to build a clientele as a new hairstylist, fresh out of school. Now going on 6 years in the industry, I’m still learning and growing everyday! I enjoy blonding, balayage, and textured haircuts. I’ve traveled to New York, Las Vegas, and Orlando to continue my education and provide the best experience for every guest that sits in my chair! In my free time you can find me at the gym, playing with my family’s 6 animals, or exploring new restaurants with friends. Hope to see you in my chair soon!

I was originally born in Mexico, raised in good ol’NC. I have always loved everything that had to do with beauty and hair. During COVID I had a realization that I just needed to stop waiting on starting my career, and decided to start beauty school. After 18 months of night school, I graduated from Paul Mitchell the school Raleigh in 2022 and immediately got my cosmetology license right after! I’m excited to be learning under amazing hair artist/mentors at Salon Saia, all the way from hair cutting to color. My goal is to learn all the techniques I can, and eventually have you in my chair!
