Em Buckley

Em’s journey into the world of hairstyling began shortly after her time at the University of Arizona, where she left to pursue her true calling at the Aveda Institute. At just 21, Em took a bold leap of faith and founded Willow Salon in 2018. What started as a modest two-chair operation has since blossomed into a full-service beauty haven, acclaimed for its expertise in hair color and styling.

As a dedicated mom and an enthusiastic traveler, Em finds joy and inspiration in exploring new places with her husband, who is also her best friend and biggest supporter. Whether it’s a Diet Coke break or a Taco Bell treat, Em brings passion and zest to every aspect of her life, echoing the energy she invests in Willow Salon.

Deeply passionate about her work, Em cherishes the relationships she builds with her clients and her team. Under her leadership, Willow Salon thrives as a community cornerstone in Tucson, blending top-notch hairstyling with a warm, inclusive atmosphere.
