Valdosta – The Valdosta Chamber hosted a ribbon cutting for Blush Salon & Boutique, located at 112 West Hill Avenue.

Blush Salon & Boutique is a new establishment that combines years of beauty industry expertise and a passion for making clients feel fabulous. Michele and Valerie, the co-owners of Blush Salon & Boutique, each boast over 20 years of experience in the beauty industry.

Throughout their careers, they have perfected countless gorgeous bridal looks, catered to pageant participants, and prepared individuals for special occasions and the first day of school. Their dedication to making everyone feel as fabulous as they look is at the core of Blush Salon & Boutique's philosophy.

The journey of Blush Salon & Boutique began with Michele's successful boutique and spray tanning venture as a pop-up shop a few years ago. The demand for her services grew, necessitating a physical storefront to showcase her talents fully. This was when Valerie, an experienced salon owner with a profound knowledge of all things hair and beauty, joined forces with Michele to create Blush Salon & Boutique. Together, with their team of talented stylists, they have crafted an atmosphere that is both fun and relaxing, catering to the diverse needs of their valued clientele.

Lowndes County holds a special place in the hearts of both Michele and Valerie, as it is their hometown where they were born, raised, and have raised their own families. The community is like an extended family, comprising a close-knit group of friends and relatives. Valerie's first job as a stylist was at Anthony and Company in Valdosta, where she honed her skills and developed lasting relationships with fellow stylists, some of whom she still considers family. Michele also had the opportunity to work with Valerie during their time at Anthony and Company, strengthening their friendship and shared passion for the beauty industry.

Blush Salon & Boutique boasts a team of exceptionally talented stylists, each with unique personalities, styles, and specialties, making it a place where clients can truly feel at home. Their list of accomplishments includes state and national wins in pageantry hair and spray tanning, as well as recognition for their exceptional hairstyling talents, including winning one of TV personality Tabitha Coffee's hairstyling competitions. The salon has also been featured on multiple covers of local magazines, showcasing the exquisite work they have done for their clients and brides over the years.

Community involvement is an essential aspect of Blush Salon & Boutique's values, and they are thrilled to give back to their beloved hometown. On July 31st, the salon will be hosting a special event called "Perfect Princess Cuts," during which all hairstylists will be offering free back-to-school haircuts for little girls who may not have the means to afford them. This event will be held from 1 PM to 4 PM on a first-come, first-served basis, reflecting the salon's dedication to supporting and uplifting the local community.
