Carly Rae Coady (Lawrenson) began her hair career in 2008. In 2011, her passion for music brought her to Nashville, TN. She built a loyal clientele early on and has been working in Nashville ever since. In 2017, Carly Rae began working for Local Honey in Nashville, becoming their Director of Education and created and launched their apprentice program. She is a well-rounded stylist in cutting, mens cutting, styling, and colour specialist. She was named in 2016 by The Colorist Magazine "30 under 30: The Next Generation of Colorists" . Carly Rae was one of 25 nominated from all over the world for the BehindtheChair Big Shot Editorial category.

Carly Rae’s background in hairdressing all stems from a passion for education. In 2012, she decided to further her career and education by becoming an educator for TIGI, in which she specialized in teaching Cutting and Styling. Carly Rae's passion for understanding the how's and why's of hair care products sent her teaching all around the US. In 2014, Carly Rae became one of 10 hairstylists from all over the US under the age of 25 chosen to be apart of TIGI's Inspirational Youth first US Team. This program was open to all hairdressers from every brand, salon, and background, and has been running in the UK for over a decade. From there Carly Rae was sent to London to train under Anthony Mascolo (Creator and Founder of TIGI) , Nick Irwin, Akos Bodi, Thomas Osborn, Richy Kandasamy and Christel Lundqvist and the rest of the TIGI International Creative team at the coveted Bed Head Studio. After styling hair for an editorial shoot shot by world-renown Alex Barron-Hough, Carly Rae and the teams work was published in BehindtheChair Magazine, and the magazine created a web-series to follow their journey. Carly Rae was then chosen from the 10 as one of the 2 winners, and was sent to Berlin, Germany to work at TIGI's World Release event under Anthony Mascolo, Nick Irwin, and the rest of the TIGI International Creative Team. She traveled and educated for TIGI until March of 2017, and is so thankful for her time with that company as the knowledge she gained translates into her work behind the chair and educating other hairdressers.

Carly Rae's passion for teaching evolves into her investing in her skills for her career in clients. She has studied in NYC, London, Berlin, and Toronto focusing on color, cutting and editorial styling. Carly Rae believes that education is key to providing stellar services and keeping her clients ahead of the trends.
