Angie Nordby

Licensed since 2009, Angie Nordby never imagined becoming a hairstylist, she originally dreamed of being an architect. But after enrolling in cosmetology school to pass the time, she discovered an unexpected passion for hair that evolved into a thriving, purpose driven career. As the founder of Ardor Salon, Angie is best known for her platinum transformations, precision haircuts, and her signature approach to low-maintenance, lived-in color.

Angie created a customized technique she calls “no-maintenance lived-in color” a method designed to deliver dimensional, long-lasting results that grow out effortlessly. Her work reflects a deep understanding of both color theory and real-life practicality, offering elevated results that suit any lifestyle.

Having trained with top stylists around the world, Angie continues to invest in advanced education while also teaching cutting and color techniques to fellow professionals. Her dedication to craft has earned her industry recognition, including multiple Top 100 Platinum Artist honors and a Top 5 Global Finalist placement in Behind the Chair’s One Shot Hair Awards for editorial work.

In her chair, clients can expect an elevated, collaborative experience where they feel relaxed, cared for, and fully supported. Angie takes the time to break down each step of the process, offering honest insight and clear direction to truly understand and achieve your goals. Her chair is a space where everything else fades away so you can focus entirely on yourself.

Driven, intuitive, and results-focused, Angie finds joy in transformation from the first consultation to the final reveal. Outside the salon, she spends her time snowboarding, mountain biking, hiking with her two dogs (Skadi and Vidi), and exploring new cities both solo and with her partner and close friends.
