Visit www.salontoday.com tAvalon Salon Victory Park “Because the processing area in most salons is an afterthought, we created the color bar and lounge to be an environment that encourages creativity and conversation. It also frees the styling chairs so they can be used for additional customers. By having the colorists mix color in front of clients, instead of in a galley, it enhances the client-colorist interaction.” Location: Dallas, Texas Website: www.avalon-salon.com Opened: November 20, 2007 Owners: Ric Bowden, Lawrence Bonanno Salon style: Upscale urban boutique Square footage: 2,800 Styling stations: 16 Treatment rooms: 3 Equipment: Various Furniture: Etopa Top retail line: Aveda Designers: Ric Bowden, Lawrence Bonanno Architecture: Ric Bowden Judges’ comments: “The flooring ranges from welcoming in the retail space to clean and modern in the work space.”—Prais “The space is well-planned and organized.”—Mitchell RChakras Spa “Customizing our styling stations was our only option to solve our previous design challenges. The most common complaint that we heard from our salon guests was that the overhead lights were creating shadows on their faces, making them look tired. Placing light boxes at eye level that contain high-intensity bulbs enhances their skin color and eliminates shadows.” Location: Greensboro, North Carolina Website: www.chakrasspa.com Remodeled: January 15, 2007 Owner: Sheila Paquette Salon style: Organic, modern, zen Square footage: 6,800 Styling stations: 19 Treatment rooms: 11 Equipment: Takara Belmont Furniture: Takara Belmont, Joe Hunt/Kern Construction Top retail lines: Aveda, Bumble and bumble, Ojon Designer: Sheila Paquette Judges’ comments: “This salon exudes a funky, fun, yet simple feel.”—Ray “Foliage, fabrics and ethnic finishes take clients on a rich journey.”—Soble www.salontoday.com June 2008 | 39 http://www.salontoday.com http://www.avalon-salon.com http://www.chakrasspa.com http://www.salontoday.com
