I Miss All Of You!

Dear Clients,

As you know I am closed for all hair services until the ban is lifted.

I, along with so many other small business owners, am both in shock and action.

Last week I did a mad tidy up / sort out of Swans Studios all the while appreciating my wonderful janitorial service and Lorenzo, my behind the scenes assistant.

This week I have focused on updating my website and my booking system.

I have added an online store so as of today you can purchase gift certificates and, very soon, salon products via Vagaro, my booking system.  Click here to visit the store.


Me meditating on what do I do now?

Please contact me if you have any questions regarding your hair and beauty needs.  I miss talking to you and I hope you are all healthy and staying home.

Call me or email me at suzanne@suzannevanhouten.com or 510-545-2955.

And if you would like a way to help please go online and support my social media accounts


Doing this helps more than you might imagine.

In Gratitude,
Suzanne.

Bad Hair Days Happen In Between The Good Hair Days

 Hairqueen News My transition into retirement continues, it’s a bit like growing out your hair or your hair color.  It’s exciting at first to try something new, but then the reality sets in, your bangs are in your eyes, your grey is showing.  Will you like the new look, will you feel like yourself, will you regret it and go back? The only way to find out is to try. I find in my retired life, like growing out hair there are some bad hair days.  On those days, I miss my color bowls and foils, the sounds and the smells of the salon. And all of you. Yet, I’m grateful that my one-day-a-week schedule continues to be a win, win. I get to see some of you and I get my salon fix.  Just last week I cut a super cute pixie from a bob, (that’s short hair from mid-length hair for those of you not in the know :). This month I've had the chance to review and reduce my inventory. I have some items on sale at 25% off. Come by and shop or contact me for more information. ...
