Penny is a Florida Native, born and raised in good ole' Lutz, FL.  She has been in the hair industry since 1989 starting out after graduation as a Stylist Assistant for Omar Sassin.  After assisting and working for other salons in the Tampa Bay area, she decided to branch out and become a salon owner (UBU Color Salon) where she has now been open for 14 years. One thing you would never know about Penny is before she was put in the spot light of being a hairstylist she was super shy.  It took her love for hair to bring her out of that to the girl we all love.

Penny has always had a passion for hair, whether it is creating the perfect blonde to bring up the next generation hair stylist, give her the opportunity to help a future stylist and she is on it. Penny has mentored many of the stylist that currently working in the Tampa bay area.
