Stylist
Being a stylist has always been my dream. I enjoy all aspects of the salon, especially the friendships that develop and trust built over the years together and the artistry and creativity when working with hair. I can also be found on the spa side of our salon, providing a safe and quiet place to relax while getting manicures, pedicures, and reflexology. Other services include facials and waxing.
Denise Alessandrini
Stylist
My dream and ambition was to be a hair stylist ever since I was 6 years-old. After 40 years in the business, I’m thankful that I made that decision. I enjoy being in the customer service business and the interaction with my clientele. Dealing with the varied personalities of my clients isn’t something they teach in beauty school, but it’s probably the part of this business I enjoy most.
