Grateful To You

Thank you, thank you, thank you for shopping with me. Thank you, thank you, thank you for shopping local wherever and whenever you can.

Your in-store purchases help us, the small business owner, to make part of our profit on goods as well as on services. Those dollars are the dollars that help us when services are cancelled or rescheduled, when we take time off to be with family and friends, when an unexpected bill comes in or an unexpected repair is needed, believe me those dollars help, a lot.

Besides helping us those in-store purchases help you because we can recommend the appropriate products for the need of your hair today. We take classes and meet with our reps to keep up to date on the professional products that we carry in-store.

It is frustrating for us that the products we carry are sold on Amazon and in department stores when the salon product companies work hard to eliminate diversion.

We cannot compete with Amazon but we can offer monthly promotions and offer you an in person consultation at each appointment for your product needs.

Let's talk product, face to face :).

Retirement Life

HairQueen News On October 1 2022 after 40 plus years of working full-time I stepped way-back from the salon chair and way-into retirement life. As the date grew closer, I was and still am all over the place with so many feelings and uncertainties about how to navigate this next stage. To mark the occasion of my retirement I had a wonderful party, please see the previous blog, Endings and Beginnings. Next, I went on a celebratory trip which included a week sailing the Atlantic Ocean on the Queen Mary 2. So exciting! Crossing the Atlantic Ocean Gala Time Upon my return I am turning my attention to what it means to be an older, wiser, experienced, master of my trade. As space in my life opens up I will take the opportunity to grow Swans Studios, to mentor, coach and consult within and beyond the salon industry. With more free time I will enjoy my granddaughters, my family, friends and hobbies. I know from many of you that the retired life is a busy life and I am grateful t
