35 years

Happy Birthday to the heart and soul behind it all MARIA ❤️

This week we’re not only celebrating YOU, but also 35 amazing years in business… an incredible milestone that speaks to your talent, dedication, and the love you pour into every single client who sits in your chair.

You’ve built more than a salon, you’ve created a place that feels like home. I’m so proud to be part of it and even more proud to be your daughter.

Cheers to you today and always ✨

Our favorite Girl Scout came in!

I think so too! What do you think? - John

Hey everyone, it’s been a minute (okay… maybe a few years) since we’ve posted on here, but we’re back scissors sharp, coffee hot, and hearts full.

For those who don’t know us (or need a little refresher), here’s the crew that makes up our perfectly chaotic, love-filled salon family:

✨ Maria – The queen herself. She opened this salon back in 1991 and somehow still puts up with all of us. She’s not just the boss, she’s also my mom which means our “staff meetings” sometimes sound a little like Sunday dinner.

✨ Nina – That’s me! I literally grew up in this salon and so did my kids. This place has seen it all: first haircuts, wedding updos, breakup bangs, and everything in between. If you’ve ever tried to “just trim your own bangs,” don’t worry… your secret’s safe with me (but we can tell).

✨ Carrie – Our Irish goddess of humor and hair. She owned her own salon for years before joining us about four years ago, and honestly, I don’t know how we survived without her. She loves Jesus and she loves to swear somehow she makes that combo work perfectly. Sitting next to her guarantees laughter, wisdom, and at least one story you’ll repeat later.

✨ Sue – The mom of the salon (besides Maria, of course). She’s our peacekeeper, our heart, and the one who knows what everyone’s feeling before they even say it. Sue is family through and through you’ll feel that as soon as you sit in her chair.

💛 Our salon isn’t your average salon it’s more like walking into a girlfriend’s house. People pop in just to say hi, share news, or get a little “therapy” while we do their hair. Sometimes the haircut is secondary to the conversation, and we love that about this place.

To our longtime clients — thank you for sticking with us through all the laughs, tears, life milestones, and questionable hair choices (yours and ours). And to our new clients — welcome to the family! We can’t wait to meet you, swap stories, and probably overshare just a little.

We might not always be the most professional bunch, but we promise you’ll leave with good hair, a full heart, and maybe a new favorite swear word (courtesy of Carrie).

Here’s to new beginnings, great hair, and the best kind of salon chaos. 💕
