Top 200 Salon in N. America

Excuse our language, but… HOLY SH*T!  Our little salon was awarded Top 200 Salons in North America (out of 1 million!!!) by Salon Today! This award is especially meaningful to us, because it’s an industry specific award, voted by our peers and colleagues. We are humbled, we are grateful, we are so proud. We truly believe that we have the best team over here, and this kind of growth during a year with COVID would not have been possible without them as a whole.
A note from @salontoday⁠
“While the pandemic forced salons to close (sometimes more than once) and their owners to apply for emergency funding and navigate the complexity of social distancing and new safety standards, SALON TODAY knew it needed to change the focus of its renowned business competition to reflect not only the successful growth strategies of 2019, but the survival strategies of 2020.⁠
This year’s SALON TODAY 200 is a tribute to the heroes in our industry. The leaders who immediately embraced change, helped support their team members even when they had to lay them off so they could seek unemployment, and designed all kinds of ways to deliver advice and products to clients who were sheltering at home with unruly looks and growing roots. It also is a remembrance of the good that came out of 2020—how owners bonded with their team members, and service providers bonded with their clients. It’s a reflection of the grit and the determination, the creativity and the ingenuity and the courage and the resiliency that North American salons, spas and barbershops exhibited in the past year.”
Reaction and some words from Meraki Salon owner, Michelle:
Thank you all for your continued support of our growing salon family!
