Sunni Rogers
Manager / Partner / Microblading Artist
I grew up in Michigan and relocated to Wilmington, NC in 2001 which I now call home. I am a mother, foster mother, aunt, big sister and wife. I love traveling to Asia, getting tattoos and drinking champagne. I have been with I Am Salon and Day Spa since 2009. As an Esthetician with over 10 years of experience, I have spent many years in an ever growing field keeping up to date with the latest beauty and skincare products and services in order to better serve and educate my clients. With a background in Fine Arts, Architecture, Skincare, and a touch of OCD, this makes for the perfect recipe for Microblading and PMU. Having trained with the Phi Royal Artists, Microblading Academy of LA and Mara Studios my focus has been set on giving women (and men) the confidence they need and brows and lips they would love to have. Besides being a service provider, it was here that I absolutely fell in love with the Aveda culture, and in 2014 I partnered into the business in order to manage the team of incredible, like-minded people at I Am. On top of embracing the Aveda culture, we all work together by giving back to the community. Each month we pick a different cause or local charity and come together as a team to really make a difference. The teamwork and relationships built with each other, our clients, and the community is what makes us an I Am family.
Meghan Garner
Assistant Manager
I am a Wilmington native ( we are rare, I know ) that has been working in the beauty industry since 2001 and graduated from Cosmetology school in 2005. In August of 2016 I joined the I Am team as a Salon Coordinator / Assistant Manager.
I feel truly blessed to be part of this family to work alongside of these energy-based people. When you walk in, my goal is for you to feel the warmth, education, positivity, creativity and tranquility we offer here at I Am Salon and Day Spa. My goal / our goal is also to make an impact not only in the beauty industry but locally by giving back to community organizations each month. We are taking AVEDA’s mission and rooting ourselves in their culture and I honestly feel that this is why we are not “just another salon/spa”. By doing this we can be the change that we wish to see in the world.

Taylor Beck
Stylist
I have been doing hair professionally for 10 years and with Aveda about 11. I really love doing highlights/working with different shades of blonde hair and creating colors and styles that are natural, easy to grow out and maintain. I moved to Wilmington to further my education at UNCW with a degree in environmental science and continue to work part time here at I Am.
Obviously I’m a student, so that takes up a lot of my free time but I love the learning aspect. I really enjoy learning about the history of towns, places, and landmarks of NC. I also really love being outside and staying active if not working or doing school work.
