Skylar Cutter
E-commerce Director for The Vibe
I live in Hampton NH with my big family of 8 and our 2 pups who we love dearly.
The past two years I have been traveling around the U.S. in my tiny house on wheels, Pearl, seeing all of the beauty that this planet has to offer while meeting so many amazing souls along the way.
My passion has always been people and just recently, fashion! I started my own clothing business this year, Earth & Skye Clothing. My favorite part about creating unique wearable art for people is the way it makes them feel. Clothing should make you feel uplifted and empowered and here at Elite Hair Design and The Vibe that is our main goal!
Through my travels I have discovered many of our new vendors at The Vibe! I love finding different styles and pieces so there is truly something for everyone. I manage our online boutique and also co-manage our social media pages. Be sure to check us out!

My name is Mallory, I have been with Elite for 2 years now! Cosmetology has always been my passion. I studied hair at Nashoba Valley Technical High School, and continue taking classes whenever I can. Some of my favorite things to do outside of hair are, being with my dog Cocoa, hanging out with my friends and family, and anything to do with music! Some of my favorite services to do in the salon are, blonding, styling/updos for events, and recently began offering makeup which is something I have always had a passion for. Can’t wait to meet you! See you in my chair 😉

I am surrounded by talented, successful, independent women who inspire and empower me everyday! And I aspire to do the same for as many of you beautiful individuals as well!
Lois A. Cutter
Owner/Founder of Elite Hair Design & The Vibe Collective
Being the youngest of three girls, I had my challenges already laid out for me. Being seen and heard in the chaos of being raised by a single Mom has filled my soul with grit and determination. I was taught to grab life by the shoulders and shake out every possible ounce of it as I move through all the beginnings. I don’t see endings, just a new beginning and a way of looking at what has taken place and moving on from that point, without hesitation or doubt.
I am the grateful mother of four amazing humans who constantly remind me of what matters most. Watching them manifest their own dreams and desires is on the top of my list of favorites!
With every ounce of my being, I enjoy seeing others grow and stretch their limits beyond where they thought possible. Walking along side a team of talented professionals is one of my favorite things to do. I love mentoring as much as the air I breathe. I take nothing or no one for granted. I encourage myself and my team to embrace Self Care and Love individually so we can share that love with others we meet.
I founded Elite with a mindset of integrity and by keeping the importance of relationships and appreciation for others in the forefront of my mind. Never wavering or doubting it’s success. I just knew in my heart and soul that it would be amazing... and that it is! Always evolving. Always growing and stretching.
Building the foundation blocks of Elite has been a wild ride. There are constant challenges, dips and blunders. At times, failing forward but never looking back. We are wildly successful and continue to grow in ways I always imagined when the thought of Elite was merely just a thought.
Watching us emerge into a new space with open arms, we welcome all walks of life to feel safe and certain that they will feel special and loved while inside our space. Our common goal centers around providing the ultimate experience for our guests.
With all our moments, both big and small, we stand taller now than ever before. We can’t wait to meet you!
