HOW IT ALL STARTED…
In the spring of 2017, two hairstylists met due to their passion for the hair industry. They soon discovered that they both had the same goals of someday owning and operating a boutique hair salon that focused on the client's experience. In the spring of 2019, those dreams became a reality and J & CO Hair Studio was born. The studio was founded on an emphasis in continued education to stay up to date on the most modern trends and techniques. Maintaining the health and integrity of the hair is our top priority, while also making our guests feel as though they are in their second home. We hope you absolutely love J & CO Hair Studio.
