Meet the Founder
Tanya Brooks — Founder & Creative Director
Internationally Trained Hair Artist & Blonde Specialist
Tanya Brooks is the Founder and Creative Director of Whitehouse Salon in Shadyside, Pittsburgh, bringing decades of hands-on experience, international education, and salon ownership to her work.
Tanya began her career in Canada and has spent more than 36 years as a salon owner. Throughout her career, she has continued her professional education well beyond the salon, traveling to Vancouver, Los Angeles, France, and Italy for advanced classes and training.
Her professional education also includes training with some of the most recognized names in the hair industry, including Vidal Sassoon and Toni & Guy, with a strong emphasis on precision cutting, color, and advanced hair techniques.
Specializing in Blonde Hair & Dimensional Color
Tanya has developed a particular expertise in blonde hair. From bright, dimensional blondes to softer, more natural-looking color, she approaches each client individually rather than relying on the same formula or technique for everyone.
- Blonde hair and blonding
- Balayage
- Highlights
- Dimensional color
- Hair extensions
- Precision cutting
- Color transformations
- Personalized hair consultations
Achieving the right blonde isn’t simply about making hair lighter. Tanya considers the client’s existing color, hair condition, skin tone, desired result, lifestyle, and maintenance preferences before developing a plan.
More Than 36 Years of Salon Ownership
Owning a salon for more than three decades has given Tanya experience that extends far beyond working behind the chair.
She has watched techniques, products, styles, and trends change throughout her career while continuing to invest in education and refine her craft. That experience also shapes the way she mentors and develops the stylists at Whitehouse Salon.
Tanya believes continued education is essential in an industry that never stops evolving. Her international training and decades of practical experience allow her to combine proven techniques with current approaches to cutting, coloring, blonding, and styling.
International Education. Decades of Experience. Personalized Results.
From beginning her career in Canada to continuing her education in Vancouver, Los Angeles, France, and Italy, Tanya has built her career around learning and applying what she has learned to real clients.
Today, she brings that experience to every appointment at Whitehouse Salon. Whether you’re looking for a brighter blonde, dimensional balayage, highlights, extensions, a precision haircut, or a completely new look, Tanya starts by listening to what you want and evaluating what will work best for your hair.
Her approach continues to be guided by three principles:
Integrity · Perfectionism · Excellence

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I swear I’ve spent about 3 years looking for a hair salon in Pittsburgh—friendly, non fussy but professional, someone to cut Asian hair because it is different in texture. This place is perfect. The staff is naturally diverse, they know what they’re doing. The place is clean, cute with lots of natural light, drinks, and they wash your hair! It’s a wonderful head massage. Flo is great, provides just the right amount of conversation without overdoing it. It’s everything that a salon should be and pricing is reasonable.
Leeann Thank you for making our day a great one. Your words mean a lot to us Leeann. Warmly, Whitehouse salon

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Whitehouse Salon is a staple to go to on Walnut Street. Located right on top of Mercurios. You walk into beautiful clean white decor and complimentary coffee, tea and wine. One thing I love about this place is the DIVERSITY! I know I’ve walked into salons before in shadyside that do not cater to curly hair but this salon does(and I mean 4a-4c hair types). I would 100% recommend <3
Mariah …. Thank you so much for your kind words. You have made our day a great one. Warmly, Whitehouse salon
