Meet THE OWNERS

Ashley and Karina met while renting space at another salon. They had such a devoted clientele, similar outlooks on business, and customer service styles that they decided to open a space of their own! That's when Sugar & Shears Salon and Organic Spa came to be.

What gives Sugar & Shears a competitive edge is the inclusion of a full service organic spa in conjunction with high end salon services. The location and the space are ideal for the vision Ashley and Karina have and they are excited to be a part of the neighborhood.

Ashley has been in the beauty industry for over a decade now and has never once looked back. It’s right where she belongs; she loves helping her clients reveal their true beauty, inside and out. Although outer beauty is only one small dimension of a person’s true character, the boost in confidence a good hair cut can bring can really make your inner beauty shine! That’s why Ashley doesn’t just focus on the art of cutting hair, she also builds strong relationships with her clients. She loves sharing time with them, getting to know their concerns, fears and flaws as well as their strengths, loves, and inspirations. Hearing so many stories and voices every day is a part of her job that she truly treasures, and those stories and voices have helped shape the person she is today. Ashley feels so lucky to be able to work every day to enhance each client’s inner beauty by reflecting it on the outside.
