Hey, girl, hey...
I’m Nicole Marie—
a Silicon Valley native, lifelong creative, and the heart behind Tease + Tonic Beauty Lounge, a serene salon suite nestled in the vibrant community of Willow Glen.
With nearly 20 years behind the chair, I’ve made it my mission to help busy women like you feel radiant, grounded, and effortlessly put-together—without the stress of high-maintenance beauty routines. As a working mom myself, I know how rare it is to carve out real me-time—and how powerful it can be when you do.
Tease + Tonic is more than just a place to get your hair done. It’s a space to exhale, recharge, and reconnect—with yourself. Whether you're catching up on emails, sipping matcha in silence, or chatting over bubbly while your color processes, you're invited to show up exactly as you are. I specialize in seamless grey blending and lived-in color that grows out like a dream—so your hair fits your lifestyle, not the other way around.
My passion for self-care goes beyond beauty. I’m also a certified yoga and breathwork instructor, and I infuse every service with the option to add calming rituals like guided breathwork, sound healing, or a soothing hand massage while you process. Think of it as a salon experience that nurtures your nervous system and your glow.
Outside the salon, you’ll find me chasing sunshine and slow moments with my husband and our spunky 4-year-old daughter—camping, beach-hopping, or biking through the neighborhood with sand in our shoes and snacks in every pocket.
If you value low-maintenance beauty, intentional living, and self-care that feels like a treat (not a chore), then you’ll feel right at home here. I can’t wait to welcome you.
