If you’re looking for a passionate stylist look no further! Yvanna Cosme our CEO and main service operator while we grow. Yvanna’s favorite thing about what she does is creating relationships with clients and leaving them feeling beautiful and confident. Her mission as a stylist is to be open and honest with all guests to build a relationship centered in trust and mutual respect. We know your hair is important to you, so we want to make sure you know it is also important to us! As a dark, thick brunette herself, she knows the challenges that may arise when visiting the salon, this is why her specialty is color, specially brunette and blonde balayage.

Whether you are looking for custom color, hair extensions for length and/or thickness, a new cut and style or a frizz treatment, we are here for you! We value each guest who chooses us for their hair needs. As soon as you walk in, you can expect a positive, welcoming environment where you’ll be greeted with complimentary drinks and snacks followed with a thorough consultation and upfront pricing before the start of service.

Owner, Hairstylist and Redken Artist, Yvanna Cosme, traveled from Trujillo Alto, Puerto Rico to Buda, Texas in 2018 due to her partner’s job. Yvanna studied in a Redken signature school and has been growing with this worldwide known brand ever since until reaching the ultimate end goal of becoming a Redken Artist. So, this means that aside from servicing guests behind the chair at the salon, she shares knowledge about all things hair with other salon companies who work with the brand. After growing in a local salon in Buda for four years, she was ready to create what Tropical Goddess is now,…and what it will be!

She is bilingual and a brunette balayage and hair extensions specialist. She has 7 years of experience under her belt and stays on trend by educating herself regularly with top brands in the industry.

“Yvanna has been my hairstylist since 2020 before she became an independent hairstylist. I am never leaving her. I have gone from brunette, to blonde, to pink hair, back to brown and she has nailed all of my looks. Don’t look further if you are looking for a great hairstylist who is also personable and awesome.”

“If you had told me I was going to have a BOMBING career in a place where I knew nothing or anyone, I would’ve said your nuts. However, after key people in my life and a little bit of ambition and self-confidence, I’m lucky to say Tropical Goddess Salon has now grown into a reality; a community of beautiful people inside and out…and it keeps growing!”
