NAUTIBEAUTY exists to empower women through a blend of nautical expertise and artistry.
As a female boat captain and seasoned hairstylist, I understand the importance of individuality, unleashing confidence, and embracing the freedom to explore land, sea, and style.
I strive to create an inclusive and welcoming environment where clients can escape the ordinary: learn to drive a boat, and journey through ever-changing waters.
As we navigate the vast ocean of possibilities, my skilled hands and knowledge of the sea offer clients a truly unique experience, and leaves them ready to conquer new horizons.
Join me for nautical adventures, conversations around mindful beauty product choices, and learning about our local waters. Whichever adventure you choose, I’m here to support and empower you.

Hi! I'm Nackie Karcher. Welcome to Nauti Beauty.
You may know me as a Florida sun-child or the former owner of The Karcher hair salon in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. I am the mother of two angels, the wife of a saint, and the Captain of my own ship.
After 30 years devoted to hair styling and education, I’ve returned to my roots to reclaim the water-woman in me. Now I teach people to drive boats and guide adventure tours! If you can catch me, I still offer the occasional haircut inspired by nature.
In 2021, I relocated to the seaside town of Mastic Beach, New York, where I proudly followed my brothers and mother into becoming a licensed Boat Captain for hire. I can now teach you to be the Captain of your own ship.
