Tell me something about you and your best friend!

❄️☃️It’s snowing outside and I’m bored on the couch so get to know us❄️☃️

✨I met my beautiful best friend and business partner, Julie, in high school (1997). We instantly bonded and have remained best friends for the last 28 years.

✨We are both 43 years old and are exactly 1 month to the day apart (she’s the older one 👵🏼)

✨We are both cosmetologists and in 2011 decided to open our own salon together, Salon JuNa in Hueytown, AL.

✨We are both married to Eddys and each have two kids; her 2 girls and me 2 boys!

✨Our sense of humor mirrors each other and I’m afraid to say could get us committed if people only knew 😂

✨While Julie has ALWAYS been into skincare and taking care of her skin, I have finally caught up and have began to develope a consistent skincare routine; aging isn’t for the faint of heart, but I’m certainly thankful for the opportunity to do it.

✨We are learning the hard way that our 40’s and perimenopause make staying in shape nearly impossible and we like to complain about that daily

... Read moreHey everyone! So many of you have reached out curious about what makes Salon JuNa in Hueytown, AL, truly special, beyond just Julie and my friendship story. We love hearing from you, and it's awesome to share more about what we do at our hair salon! When we first dreamed up Salon JuNa back in 2011, our goal was simple: create a place where everyone felt like family, welcomed with open arms and leaving with a fantastic new look. Being cosmetologists for years, we’ve seen trends come and go, but what never changes is the joy of helping someone feel beautiful and confident. At Salon JuNa, you can expect a full range of hair services – from fresh haircuts and dynamic coloring techniques like balayage and highlights, to perms, relaxing treatments, and special occasion styling. We’re always keeping up with the latest in hair fashion and techniques to ensure you get exactly the look you’re dreaming of. What truly sets us apart, I think, is the genuine connection we build with our clients. Because Julie and I have been best friends for nearly three decades, that warmth and camaraderie naturally extend to everyone who walks through our doors. It’s more than just a hair appointment; it’s a chance to relax, chat, and enjoy a moment of pampering in a friendly, comfortable environment. We often joke that our salon is a mini-therapy session for both us and our clients! And speaking of pampering, remember how I mentioned Julie has always been a skincare guru, and I'm finally catching up? We're actually exploring ways to bring some of that expertise into Salon JuNa! While our primary focus is hair, we believe true beauty is holistic. We're looking into offering curated skincare advice and maybe even some express treatments in the future, helping you achieve that radiant glow from head to toe. It's a natural extension of our passion for making people feel their best. Located right here in Hueytown, AL, we're proud to be a local business serving our community. We believe in quality service, professional products, and a personal touch that you won't find just anywhere. Whether you're looking for a bold hair transformation, a simple trim, or just want to pop in for a friendly chat and some expert advice, we'd love to welcome you to Salon JuNa. Come experience the difference that a salon built on friendship and passion can make for your hair and your day!
