Death Moth
Studio Salon

where luxury meets individuality

Founded + led by master stylist Connie Viera,
Death Moth Studio was born from the belief that hair is both art and identity.

Every session is a custom experience — rooted in intuition, collaboration, and creativity. From effortless lived-in color to precision cuts and transformative extensions, we blend high-end technique with an effortlessly cool edge.

Tucked in the heart of San Antonio’s historic West Side,
Death Moth Studio channels the energy of a little Brooklyn hideaway — creative, grounded, and brimming with individuality. It’s a space where stylist and client co-create looks that feel as good as they look — modern, moody, and unapologetically chic.

Every detail is designed to make you feel seen, inspired, and radiant.
Step inside and experience hair artistry reimagined — refined, restorative, and always true to you.

Education & Certifications

  • I completed the Salt Strands Hand Tied Education course in September 2020 in Dana Point, California, where I learned advanced techniques in seamless hand tied extension installation, custom placement, and natural blending. The class focused on creating lightweight, low-tension looks that move like natural hair — blending precision with artistry. It was such an inspiring experience that deepened my confidence and craftsmanship behind the chair. 🌊✨

  • I completed the Phanes Hand Tied Extension Course in November 2022 in Austin, Texas, where I learned advanced techniques in natural placement, tension control, and custom blending. The course focused on creating seamless, wearable extensions that move naturally and protect the integrity of the hair and scalp. It was a hands-on, inspiring experience that strengthened both my precision and creative approach behind the chair. ✨

  • I completed the Mesh Integration Hair System Certification with Ava Talavera in October 2025, specializing in custom toppers for clients experiencing alopecia, hair loss, and thinning. This training refined my skills in seamless blending and natural integration, allowing me to offer comfortable, confidence-restoring solutions behind the chair. ✨
