Artistic Team Tryouts 2019
Gabi Ibarra
Congratulations to Gabi Ibarra on making the Knockouts Artistic Team!
Gabi is the assistant managers at our Roswell, GA location and has been with KO since January 2020. She obtained her cosmetology degree in 2014 and is licensed in the states Georgia, Tennessee and Texas. She also received a BFA in Fashion Marketing & Management from the Art Institute of Dallas in 2018.
Gabi chose a career in hair because she loves the idea of helping others feel good. She appreciates that she can express herself through the details of her work AND the details of her own appearance with the freedom to have tattoos and piercings without being judged. She is a firm believer in “you don’t know what you don’t know”, which is what led her to try out for the Artistic Team. She is excited to travel with the team, learn new trends and be a positive role model.
When Gabi isn’t in the shop cutting hair you might find her hard at work on a Pinterest DIY or doing arts and crafts with her children Kaliah, 3 and Kashton, 2.
Knockouts is excited to have Gabi on the Artistic Team! Look for her and the rest of the team at BarberCon 2021 in Austin, Texas!

Jamie Triplett
Congratulations to Jamie Triplett on making the Knockouts Artistic Team!
Jamie has been with Knockouts – Fort Smith, AK - for over a year. She graduated from Arthur’s Beauty College in October 2015 with the goal of helping people create their own personal style & having a career she enjoyed showing up for every day.
Jamie believes hair says a lot about who you are and she takes great pride in making the extra effort to help clients. Her favorite service is the “Heavyweight” because it gives her a few more minutes to pamper her clients and help them relax. She tried out for the Artistic Team with the hope of becoming a positive mentor in the men’s hair industry and educating others. Jamie is also excited to be a part of Knockouts future growth with such a talented group of women.
Jamie takes the time to enjoy the little things in life. She enjoys kayaking, the outdoors, thrifting & oddities, shopping, winning at go-karts, Dr. Phil, true crime and spending time with her husband, Joey, wife Crystal and their 12 year old son Jamison.

Jeanette Olbeda
Congratulations to Jeanette Olbeda on making the Knockouts Artistic Team!
Jeanette is the manager of our New Braunfels, TX location and has been with Knockouts for a year and a half. She is licensed in cosmetology and barbering. She graduated from SPC in August 2010.
Jeanette lives by the idea that haircutting and styling are an art and loves being an artist behind the chair. Her favorite service is the “KO Shave Package” because it gives her the chance to really make someone feel good with a precise cut, relaxing shampoo and clean shave. Jeanette’s passion and love of helping and teaching others, along with her belief that continuing education is key, are just a few reasons she tried out for the Artistic Team. She is most excited to represent Knockouts and help others become successful.
Jeanette uses her free time to work out or be with her husband and three children, doing things like shopping and swimming. And if work at KO weren’t enough, she also donates her time to give free back-to-school haircuts to children in her community.

Tawinee Bunnell
Congratulations to Tawinee Bunnell on making the Knockouts Artistic Team!
Tawinee has been a stylist at our Ankeny, IA location for four years. She graduated from Iowa School of Beauty in Urbandale, IA and has been doing hair for fourteen years. She has specialized in men’s hair for the last six.
Tawinee began a career in hair after realizing college and an office job just weren’t for her. She needed something that allowed her to be creative in an environment her bold, free spirited, artistic self could be appreciated. Tawinee’s favorite KO service is the “Beard Trim”, she loves the opportunity to tame a wild beard. She tried out for the team hoping to represent Knockouts at BarberCon, and for all the knowledge she hopes to learn from not just her team mates, but other barbers and stylist at different events. Tawinee firmly believes you have to keep learning to stay relevant in the hair world.
