It’s your hair, your look, your style so we get it. We realize you need to trust the person behind the chair. We want to tell you more about us and our philosophy. Karen Flowers, isn’t just the founder, owner, and lead stylist she’s the staff trainer, educator, and mentor. Karen started assisting in salons when she was fifteen years old. Passionate and committed at a young age, Karen knew hair transformation and education were her life passions. Karen feels being a hair stylist is like catching up with your best friends all day sharing life lessons, new beauty tips, and life experiences. A third generation South Bay native, Karen attended Southern California Regional Occupational Center (S.C.R.O.C.) where she received her cosmetology certificate while attending high school. She became a licensed cosmetologist at Flavio's Beauty College. Before the age of 20, Karen was a business owner operating Elite Kit Company for six years where she instructed future cosmetologist preparing for their state board licensing test. With hundreds of students, she maintained a 98% pass rate. While she was an instructor, Karen assisted in full service salons learning and advancing until she was ready to work independently. While helping to open a salon she also volunteered at Torrance Unified School District teaching ambitious students learn a trade she loved. If that wasn’t enough, she also
Attended Los Angeles Harbor College and achieved her Associate Degree in Business Administration. Karen continues to reach her goals which include advancing in the latest hair techniques and education. She is one of 14 people in California to be certified in Nick Arrojo's American Wave Services and his amazing prestige hair painting classes. To enhance her balayage repertoire, she attended The Business of Balayage Advanced Certification workshop. She is also certified in Babe Extensions as well as Global Keratin Smoothing Systems. Karen believes that anything you’ve ever wanted to do to your hair is achievable. In early 2015, Karen opened the first Salon Flourish, a cozy, inviting space for friends, friends of friends, and new friends by her favorite spot- the beach! Karen’s dream to build a creative environment where she can share her techniques and enthusiasm is alive at Salon Flourish. She is committed to making you the priority and your visit flawless. Karen’s enthusiasm and passion for what she does is infectious. She may even talk you into a transformation you never dreamed.
Sheena has over 20 years experience with extensions in her own hair. Recently she tried a new method that lets her hair breathe and move naturally, and she can’t wait to share more about it with her clients.

I’ve made a LOT of mistakes as a salon owner. Including the time I accidentally mailed all of my marketing postcards… back to myself. 😂
But after 20+ years in this industry, I’ve learned that making mistakes isn’t what defines you. It’s how you handle them.
Own it. Apologize. Make it right. Learn from it.
And when you’re leading a team, remember that the people around you are learning from how you respond, too.
One of the things I’m most proud of at Salon Flourish is the culture we’ve built. A team where we can have honest conversations, hold each other accountable with kindness, and give each other the grace to grow.
Because the goal was never perfection. It’s to keep learning, growing, and getting better together. 🤍
What’s a mistake that ended up teaching you something valuable?
This is what trusting the process looks like.

We want you to feel like you belong here. 🤍
Not just with your stylist, but with our entire team.
At Salon Flourish, you might have five different people ask if you need a drink, offer to check your parking meter, or make sure you’re comfortable throughout your appointment.
And while we might be a little overly enthusiastic about making sure you have everything you need 😂, it’s because we genuinely believe taking care of each other extends to taking care of YOU.
The best salon relationships aren’t built in one appointment. They’re built over years of trust, consistency, great hair, and feeling like you’re part of something.
That’s what we hope you find here.
Tell us: what’s one little thing a salon does that makes you feel truly taken care of?
One of the services Sheena wishes more clients knew about: keratin treatments.
And no, they’re not only for curly hair.
Depending on your hair and goals, keratin can help with manageability, frizz, smoothness and make everyday styling feel a whole lot easier.
Curious whether it’s right for YOUR hair? That’s what consultations are for. 🤍
Talent might being someone into your chair. But TRUST is what builds a relationship. Listening, consistency, communication…. And remembering where we have been and where we are going next!
Some of our favorite (and best!) client relationships at Salon Flourish have been built over many years, one appointment at a time 🤍
