WOW! What a whirlwind! Things have been changing quickly, but I still believe it's an exciting time with lots of transitions and yet a restful period.
My original plan was to keep the downtown salon and just move it to another location as our lease was expiring. I made a tough decision, however, to merge the Downtown salon in to the James Irving Uptown location. With high construction costs, gut feelings, wanting to create a stronger brand, and being able to focus my time, I felt it was the best decision for the business. This was all before Covid-19 put a damper on all of our plans in 2020 and after the Coronavirus created more uncertainty, I'm relieved to say that this was the right call and I'm grateful for that.
So - what these means for you! First, we appreciate your business immensely (now more than ever!) and we know this disrupts your routine and we hope you'll continue to follow us. Our new venture will begin in Uptown as soon as we get the green light from the Board of Cosmetology. As of today, that will be Saturday, May 2nd. We have an incredible team at James Irving that you will get to meet soon - and they're excited to meet you too!
In the meantime, here are a few ways to help:
-
Buying our most popular products on our updated products page
-
Buy Gift Certificates via our website to use for future services or products
-
Book any future appointments at our Uptown location as the schedules have been updated.
We think the James Irving location is pretty slick and hope you do too!
