I went to cosmetology school here in Rockford and graduated in
2001. I started working in a salon in town until 2002 when I began
working for Regis and continuing my education more extensively
in color. By 2004 I was promoted to manager at Regis where I
also continued to work as a stylist. In 2006 I moved to Chicago
and transferred to a management position/stylist in the suburbs. I
decided it was time to come home in January of 2007 when I
made the move to August. I have never loved a salon more and I
don't even like to call it my job because it's too fun to be one! The
services I offer are haircuts, color, highlights, formal upstyles,
body waves, facial/leg/back/chest waxing, manicures, pedicures
and ear candling.
I enjoy every minute of what I do and it's so exciting for me to be
able to make people feel so good about themselves!
Come see me and receive $5 off a color or $10 off a highlight
until April 30th!

Having been a hair stylist and nail tech for over 13 years I am
happy to say that I get to do what I love every day! I started
doing hair here in Rockford 13 years ago and became a nail tech
as well 10 years ago. I opened august, the salon in September of
2002 and, as much as I love my clients and my job, I found that
ownership was cutting into the time I wanted to spend with them. I
sold the salon to Tereasa last November and have thoroughly
enjoyed concentrating on what I really love! I have taken over
200 hours of continuing education in color, cutting, and nails
over the years and became a certified Colorist in 2000.
Until April 30th add a partial highlight to your haircut for only $30!
After working for 22 years in the medical field I was ready to
take on a new challenge! I have known Andi socially for two
years and when I heard that she was ready to sell the salon I
thought this was what I was looking for. I have owned
august,the salon since November and have plans of future
expansion in the areas of massage, skin care and possibly
tanning. I have 15 years of management experience both in
nursing and the service industry, 10 years of teaching in
nursing and have owned my owned my own nursing uniform
business and Mineral Body Wrap business.
I am the mother of 3 and grandmother of 4 and am enjoying this
new chapter in my life!
Now through April 30th receive a free bottle OPI nail polish with
every pedicure! Also, new clients receive a free gift at their first
appointment!
