“Owning and operating a salon for a second time has made the experience more personal, passionate and considerably more fun!  I love what I have and what I do for a career. I am truly blessed with what I have accomplished thus far. Making people feel pretty and uplifting their day, sometimes in the tiniest of ways, is truly a joy for me.

 

Sanctuary… A Salon really does represent me with it’s dark, edgy Bohemian style, girly chandeliers and a smattering of Japanese influences. I love that my friends and clients can stop in, relax, have a glass of wine and let me do my magic! And of course a cute, small Chihuahua named Sofi or CoCo on your lap just adds to the experience!”.
