Aura Salon was founded by Jamie Laperle and Taryn Beauparlant, longtime friends and coworkers who now run the salon together as owners and master stylists. Hair is the core of the business, with extensions at the center and color, cutting, styling and treatments built around them. Facials, esthetics services, waxing and scalp care round out the menu.
The salon says it aims for an upscale, distinctive visit, with refreshments and products on hand in a lively setting.
Extensions are a main focus. The salon uses 100 percent human Remy hair with the cuticles aligned in one direction. Pieces can be colored to match a client's hair and chemically texturized to match curl or texture. Tape-in, weft and fusion keratin tip extensions are offered, and installs are priced after a consultation.
The salon runs an ongoing training program and seeks cut, color and extension models. Models receive a complimentary service and a recommended hair care product, though hair for extension class models is not included.
Charitable work is part of the business. It holds fundraisers, offers free training sessions at trade schools, and sets aside beauty-focused days for people facing hardship.
Education comes first: the team is trained in extension installation and blending alongside color and cutting.
The salon describes its setting as lively, with refreshments and products available during a visit.
