About

The salon opened roughly 15 years ago using a booth rental arrangement. Since 2020 it has held a license as a continuing education facility, running courses and hands-on instruction for barbers, cosmetologists, aestheticians and nail technicians. Numerous artists who worked here have since launched their own businesses, and some have remained on staff for over ten years.

The salon describes its team as mentors, educators and entrepreneurs. It aims to give each client a personalized experience built around their beauty needs, welcomes all hair types, and says it wants to build confidence in clients and artists alike. It describes itself as a destination for luxe haircare and transformations.

Clients book online through the salon's booking page or by phone. Deposits are required and are non-refundable, though in emergencies the salon may apply a deposit toward future services or products. Cancellations should be made at least 48 hours ahead, and the salon notes that late arrivals and cancellations affect the business. Bookings cover the guest only, so clients should ask in advance about bringing a plus one. Payment is by credit card, debit card or Zelle, and the salon does not keep cash on hand, so exact change is requested for cash.

Each stylist or artist is an independent contractor who sets their own services, schedule and pricing and manages their own client relationships. The salon reserves the right to decline any service and is not liable for individual services. Color services require a free consultation first, and the salon offers digital color through the LG CHI Color Master system, which it says covers more than 40,000 custom shades.

Aims for a personalized experience shaped around each client's needs, with a team that mentors and teaches as well as styles.

The salon describes its setting as vibrant and collaborative, with support for artists who are focused on their goals.
