About

The salon opened in 2016 in Wheaton, founded by Marek, a founder stylist, and Ashley, a founder colorist. The two had worked together for 22 years in the color industry before opening it. According to the salon, the founders have a combined experience of over 44 years, their work has appeared in international hair shows, editorial and red carpet work, and Paul Mitchell and Wella chose them to educate other professionals.

The salon calls its clients guests. A complimentary consultation with a stylist takes about 15 minutes, and guests are welcome to bring inspiration photos. Blowouts are included with a salon visit and include a cleanse and a round-brush style, with hot tools charged extra. Appointments can be booked online through the Book Now link on the website. Gift cards come in eGift amounts of $100, $200, $250 or $500, or a custom amount, and can be sent to the buyer or to a recipient by text or email, or pooled into a group gift card.

The spa side is split into two areas. Beauty Refreshed covers Natura Bisse facials, the Green Peel, lash and brow services and waxing. Body Redefined offers CryoSlimming, a non-invasive technique that uses cold to target areas that have not responded to diet or exercise. The salon states it is not intended for weight loss. Bridal beauty appointments can be booked on location or at the salon through an information request form.

The salon is open Tuesday through Thursday from 9:00am to 8:00pm, Friday from 10:00am to 6:00pm, and Saturday from 8:00am to 4:00pm. It is closed on Sundays and Mondays.

The salon says it aims to offer artistry it describes as unique and not available elsewhere, with each service built around the individual guest.
