The scupltured wave wall, a chandelier made of seashells, crystals and texture paint concrete, help to create a beachy feeling. White leather lounge chairs give clients a place to relax.
"The best use of real estate in my space is the double door entrance and the center of my salon that I have turned into Aveda retail. It has worked really well for me. I also added a Blow Dry Bar that brings in additional income from hotel guests and working women."- Kelly Davi
