Our Mission
Our mission is to empower beauty professionals to be their own boss and build their business, but not lose the social aspects of community by having private suites and semi-private suites combined with traditional booth rentals in a hybrid salon setting. We have beautiful communal areas and amenities including luxury shampoo bowls, full kitchen, coffee, and more - all set in our modern boho esthetic.
Ready to start living the suite life? Are you sick of paying half of your commissions to your employer? Do you want a more private space that you can call your own?
Come check out one of our suites! We also have open booths too if you prefer more of a social setting!
