Brushes Salon
Walking through the door at Brushes Salon, most people instantly feel the calming atmosphere. It’s a warm space, aesthetically balanced with subtle, soft tones, glitzy pop-out walls, and simple yet classy work stations. Clients often note the comforting, artistic vibe in the salon. The atmosphere was one of the most important aspects to putting Brushes together. It’s important for our stylists to feel at home when they work, as well as for clients to feel relaxed during their services.
Our goal at Brushes Salon is simple, to spread beauty and good vibes. Brushes
was born out of a vision of combining
the highest quality salon services with a relaxing, stress-free environment that allows clients a temporary escape from everything
outside. Brushes is home to a constantly growing crew of stylists, nail artists, and massage therapists.
The Brushes crew pride themselves on being driven, intrinsically motivated, business minded individuals that spread love, joy, and beauty through their services. It’s important that every employee be a positive in uence on the salon as a whole. We support each other and are each other’s biggest fans. We believe in lifting each other up to be most successful versions
of ourselves. Feeding o of each other’s energy has allowed us to create some of
the most incredible work and has been a driving factor in Brushes’ growth. I couldn’t be more proud of the crew that we have and the work that they put out.
Since I was a little girl, I have wanted my own salon. It’s been a dream in the making for so long. I spent 15 years building my clientele, developing my style, and thinking about what my place would be like. Two years ago, an opportunity popped up
and things started falling into place. We opened Brushes at half its current size and expanded after the rst year. We built onto our space and added services to meet our growing needs. It really has been a dream come true, almost surreal. There’s nothing more rewarding than doing what I love, being surrounded by such caring, creative people, and sharing our gifts with clients that have become family over the years. It’s been an amazing couple of years and I can’t wait to see where the future takes us.
