Meet the Team

Ashley Edwards
Owner, Master Color & Correction Specialist
“I am originally from Richmond Hill, GA. I graduated from Savannah Tech’s Cosmetology program in 2014 and immediately began my career in the beauty industry. While I’m passionate about everything behind the chair, creative color, corrections, and extensions are my specialty. I also love being an independent educator.
Prior to opening my studio, I traveled and taught classes to seasoned stylists, including hands on training with color techniques and how to build their brand. In 2019, I was a finalist in two categories in the national CosmoProf Licensed to Create Awards in Orlando, Florida and worked multiple events with leading brands in the industry. Finally in May of 2020, I decided to follow my dreams of opening my own salon, Drop Dead Headz. It has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made and I wish I made it sooner. Since opening my studio, I have provided students and newer stylists with one on one training.
In August of 2022, Drop Dead Headz placed among the top 5 salon suites in the world at the BehindTheChair One Shot Hair Awards, the largest international award show in the beauty industry. This contest had over 300,000 submissions from over 30 countries, so being in the top 5 was an incredible honor! Following the BTC Show, I was nominated by MODERN SALON as a Fashion Color Finalist in their Indie Pro Awards! The possibilities are endless when you take a leap of faith and follow your heart. It is such a blessing to wake up every day and love what I do!

Jill Wilson
Assistant, Cosmetology Student
“Hey y’all! My name is Jill! I have lived in Savannah for a little over seven years now, and I’m originally from the Bay Area in California. My husband is in the army and I have a perfect autistic 5 year old daughter. She teaches me to see the world so much brighter. I have always had a passion for all things cosmetic and never really made that jump out of fear, but here I am today- jumping! I absolutely love watching the transformations Ashley does and can’t wait to learn it all. The color corrections are just mind blowing! I am a hands on learner so this is amazing to experience and I am so grateful. I am so excited to meet all of you!”
