Nanaimo’s Expert Curly Hair Stylist & Image Consultant

Stop Guessing and Start Glowing with Krysta Knott

Everyone deserves to look and feel effortlessly put together every single day. Stepping out the door should be a moment of confidence, not a source of stress. But right now, you might be fighting against unpredictable natural curls, struggling to style limp strands, or opening a closet full of clothes that just do not flatter you. It is incredibly frustrating to spend valuable time and hard-earned money on salon visits, high-end styling products, and new wardrobes, only to look in the mirror and feel like you are still missing the mark.

The truth is, guessing what works for your unique features is exhausting. You should not have to lose sleep worrying about your professional image, whether your hair will cooperate for an important event, or if your everyday style accurately reflects the vibrant person you are inside.

Over 12 Years of Hands-on Experience

Your Guide to Effortless, Authentic Style

As a highly sought-after curly hair stylist in Nanaimo, Krysta believes that absolutely everyone has a signature look waiting to be unlocked. With over 12 years of hands-on experience in the salon industry, she knows exactly how to enhance natural curls, bring life and volume to fine hair, and formulate stunning, dimensional colour that grows out seamlessly.

Her journey into the beauty and fashion world is as dynamic as the looks she creates. Krysta graduated from the VIU hairdressing program in 2011. Her passion for aesthetics then took her across the globe, pursuing modeling opportunities in Montreal, Quebec, and the glamorous city of Cannes, France. These experiences immersed her in the fast-paced worlds of high fashion and elite styling. Returning to her roots, she spent nine years honing her craft at a large educational salon in Nanaimo, building deep connections within her community. After three successful years operating independently, she brought her immense talent to the KG Hair Salon team in June of 2024.

Beyond the stylist’s chair, Krysta is also Vancouver Island’s premier colour-focused image consultant. From expertly dry-cutting your natural texture to providing a highly precise 16-season Personal Colour Analysis, Krysta possesses the exact tools, advanced education, and artistic eye required to help you shine your brightest.

The Intersection of
Hair Design & Colour Theory

What makes Krysta truly unique as a curly hair stylist is her profound understanding of colour theory. She does not just see hair; she sees how the shade of your highlights interacts with the undertones of your skin. She understands that a haircut must complement not just your face shape, but your daily routine and personal brand. By blending the science of image consulting with the art of hairdressing, she offers a holistic approach to beauty that you simply cannot find anywhere else on Vancouver Island.

Real Results, Real Confidence

Krista is by far the only stylist that has helped me with my very fine curls. With my curly hair I have never really had a style. I’m in love with my hair and style. A very drastic inverted bob and I LOVE IT!!! She really knows what she is doing with curly hair!

I didn’t know I had curly hair until I got my hair done by Krysta. Truly mind blowing, and now that she’s taught me everything to do with curls during our appointments I’m much more comfortable taking care of my own curls, but now know that there’s a hair stylist in nanaimo that has a large expertise in my hair type. If you have curly hair and want to learn how to take care of it, or if you’re unsure if you have curl in your hair please book in with her!! She’s awesome!!!!
– Jenna
I had my haircut today with Krysta Knott, and I must say it was the best haircut I’ve had in my two years in Nanaimo! She’s such a pleasant and friendly person, and her attention to detail really shows. The customer service was excellent, and I left feeling so happy with my new look. Highly recommend Krysta if you’re looking for a great stylist!
