Leah Wells
OWNER
Leah opened the doors to Oomph Salon in 2016 with big dreams, big heart, and over 30 years of hair magic under her belt. Her mission? To create a space where clients feel amazing, stylists feel supported, and good vibes are always flowing. Known for her genuine connections and infectious positivity, Leah is all about making people feel at home—whether you're in the chair of one of her stylists, or just popping in to say hi.
As a hands-on owner, Leah wears all the hats. One minute she’s booking appointments, the next she’s fixing the sink or tinkering with the lights. (Yes, really—she’s basically the salon’s unofficial electrician and plumber too!)
While outside of Oomph , Leah’s world is full of love and energy. She’s been married to her awesome husband Tim for 14 years, is a proud stepmom to Kennedy and Tyler, and a dog-mom to two wild and lovable vizslas, Beans and Rezi. When she’s not at the salon, you’ll find her volunteering in the community, spreading good energy wherever she goes.
To Leah, Oomph isn’t just a salon—it’s a family, a hangout, a confidence boost, and a place to laugh a little louder and smile a little bigger.

She focuses on helping your hair grow longer and thicker even while extensions are installed.
