Meet the Team

Crystal Thomas

Greetings! I'm Crystal Thomas, a seasoned cosmetologist with over a decade of experience. Since obtaining my license in 2005, I've continually evolved in the beauty industry. While working full-time at a Dermatology & Cosmetic practice, I realized my passion lies in direct client service. My journey led me to specialize in enhancing eyelashes, driven by a genuine interest in helping women look and feel their best.
 
After extensive research, I discovered Xtreme Lashes® and its remarkable AMPLIF®eye™ lash and brow fortifier. Convinced of its excellence, I returned to full-time cosmetology in 2011, completed Xtreme Lashes® training in 2012, and proudly earned the title of Stylist of the Month in January 2013. To further hone my skills, I attended Advanced Lash Training in June 2013.
 
My vision extends beyond personal accomplishments. I am excited to share my knowledge and love for the craft by being an Xtreme Lashes Trainer.

Ashley Dombrowski 

Hi, I’m Ashley Dombrowski and I’m an esthetician at Styles By Crystal. I have always had a passion for all things beauty which is what made me decide to go to school. I studied advanced esthetics at Brown Aveda Institute and graduated in August of 2020. I received my advanced esthetics license in November of 2020. 

I specialize in brows and lashes. I am a certified lash technician with Xtreme Lashes. I am certified with Elleebana in lash lifts and brow laminations. I am also a trained and certified permanent makeup artist specializing in powder brows. I am eager to continue training to add to my list of services in the future! That’s one of my favorite things about being in this industry. The opportunities are endless and there is always room to grow. 

I decided to pursue a career in the beauty industry because helping people feel confident in themselves brings me so much joy and is something I am truly passionate about. Seeing a client’s face light up when they look in the mirror after a service is by far my favorite thing about this career. 

I am so happy to have a career in this industry and to be a part of the amazing team here at Styles by Crystal. Thank you to everyone who has supported me through this journey and thank you to Crystal for being a great role model. 

Sarah Prayner

Hi my name is Sarah Prayner and I’m an esthetician here at Styles by Crystal. I received my license in Esthetics from Brown Aveda Institute in March 2021. I’ve always had a passion for helping people and making people feel their most confident and best self. That’s why I love the beauty industry because you are able to accomplish that while making connections with people and making them feel beautiful.

I specialize in waxing, lash lifts, brow lamination, dermaplane, microdermabrasion, and lash extensions. It's so exciting how popular eyelash extensions have gotten over the past few years and how they continue to get more and more popular everyday. I also am very passionate about skin care as well and how important it is to take care of your skin. I am always looking to learn as much as I can so I cannot wait to see what’s in store for the future. I’m looking forward to what’s to come and excited to continue to expand my knowledge and grow as an esthetician.

The beauty industry is so great because it’s always changing and evolving so it gives us the opportunity to constantly learn and grow. Making people feel confident in themselves and building that rapport with people and meeting people is also another reason why I pursue this career. It brings me so much joy when a client is happy with my work and leaves smiling. My favorite thing about the career is knowing I made someone else feel good and more confident in themselves which is a great feeling.

I’m ecstatic to be a part of this amazing team here at Styles by Crystal. Having a job in this industry is just truly rewarding everyday and that puts a smile on my face. I am so blessed to have amazing support from friends and family. Thank you to everyone who has helped me get to this point and who will continue to watch me grow and support me through my journey. I especially thank Crystal, and Ashley and the rest of the girls for helping me and being great people to look up to in this industry.
