Kris&Kierst

There's a difference between working for yourself and feeling like you're on your own.

We believe you can have the freedom of building your own business while still having people around you who are ambitious, curious, and wildly supportive of your goals.

If you've been thinking about making a change, we'd love to meet you. ✨

You can be passionate and devoted to your work without handing over every evening, weekend, and ounce of your energy.

You can care about your clients, want financial success, and still want time for your health, creativity, and relationships outside of the salon.

We believe there’s no cookie-cutter blueprint for success in this industry. And if success costs you your peace or your health, it’s too expensive.

You deserve a space that gives you room to build your business in a way that supports you.

Rent customized to your schedule, 3-7 days a week.

If you’re looking for a salon that makes room for your ambition and your life, DM us.

A great haircut or color matters but we hope it's never the only thing you leave with.

We hope you leave feeling listened to, feeling more like yourself, and feeling cared for.

Whether you're here for a haircut, a facial, or simply walking through our doors for the first time, we believe people deserve more than a service.
They deserve an experience that reminds them they matter.

Around here, beautiful hair is just one expression of thoughtful care.

Behind every thriving business is a season that wasn't glamorous.

The first client. The first price increase. The first slow month. The first "yes." The first "I think I can actually do this."

Those seasons deserve just as much support as the ones that come after. That's one of the reasons we built Kris & Kierst the way we did.

We don't believe you should have to have everything figured out before taking the next step. Sometimes all someone needs is the right environment to begin.

Whether you're building a clientele, refining your craft, or simply finding the courage to bet on yourself, we hope this is a place where you feel supported every step of the way.

Every formula we mix is customized for the person sitting in our chair.

Your natural color.
Your hair history.
Your goals.
Your lifestyle.
Your maintenance preferences.

There isn't one perfect formula.

There's only the formula that's perfect for you.

Now we're curious...

If maintenance, budget, and reality weren't a factor... what hair color would you try just for fun? 👇

We're convinced every hair color deserves a name. 🤎

This one is giving...
🍮 Caramel Latte
🍫 Butterscotch Brownie
🍯 Honey Toffee
☕ Mocha Melt

Okay... your turn.
What would YOU name this color? 👇

We never set out to build just a salon.

We wanted to create a space where people feel welcome to gather.

To learn.
To create.
To share ideas.
To cheer one another on.

This vision board workshop was a reminder that some of the most meaningful things that happen here have nothing to do with hair.

They happen when people come together around a shared passion.

If you're a local entrepreneur, artist, educator, or creative with something you'd love to share, we'd love to hear from you. DM us or text us at 833-397-1492.

Whether it's a workshop, class, or community gathering, we're always excited to open our doors to experiences that bring people together.

Because we believe community is built one conversation, one class, and one connection at a time.
