About Us

Our mission is to make your time with us all about you. We strive to create an open non competitive environment so that our guests can enjoy the convenience of working with any one of our talented stylists.

Our staff is continually educated in this industry, which they in turn share with you to give you the tools and knowledge to complete your look at home.

How We Got Started

We wanted to create an environment in which everyone is welcome. A place where stylist can practice their craft with flexibility and it is safe to be yourself. We also wanted to have a salon that helped young stylist to take what they learned in school and add to this knowledge by using a training program that helps them grow behind the chair.

(more) i Have been in this business for over 30 years, I have been blessed enough to have never experienced having to get another job.  My thought process was that another job would take the energy away from developing and cultivating a culture in my chair.  I  opened my own salon in 2003 and my plan b is now an exit strategy, developing share holders to eventually take over the business. For those of you thinking of another avenue to supplement your income while your building you business think about doing something that will enable you to get clientele from it.  P.s. my salon is hiring right now.
