SPONSORED CONTENT BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT SPONSORED CONTENT Experience the Difference of Hand-Tied Hair Extensions at Salon IAOMO A s one of the region’s premier hair salons catering to clients of all ages and from all walks of life, it’s no surprise that Salon IAOMO is at the forefront of the latest in hand-tied hair extensions. Started over 12 years ago by co-owner, and 33-year veteran of the hair replacement field, Roberta Kozel, Salon IAOMO’s mission has always been to be creative, self-motivated, passionate about their craft and to seek out higher education in their field whenever possible. “We all work together to enhance the natural beauty of our clients, to help them find their unique style using the finest techniques and services, and ongoing education and training is a huge part of that,” Kozel said. “As a certified master stylist, it’s important to me that all of our staff is certified in techniques like the hand-tied hair extensions, which are the quickest and easiest way to achieve longer, fuller hair. There’s no damage to your natural hair with proper professional installation. They are 100 percent human remy hair, lay flatter, are more undetectable, and can last well over a year if they’re taken care of properly.” Salon IAOMO takes pride in having some of the most highly trained and qualified stylists in the region. The staff has over 130 years combined experience in the hair/beauty industry. Each of the stylists is required to acquire a set amount of training each year, which keeps them apprised of the latest techniques and trends. If you aren’t sure if whether hand-tied hair extensions are for you, there’s a whole host of solutions at Salon IAOMO. Every client receives a consultation, whether they are looking at extensions, halos, beads, hot bonds, hand tied or other option, in order to match up their hair color and determine how many or how much material is needed. All take-home products are thoroughly explained in their use so you can maintain a salon-fresh look every day. “Everyone’s style is different. Everyone’s hair is different. We have clients who want the crazy colors that are still in right now – the pinks, blues, purples – and we have clients who need a medical hair loss replacement solution. The difference with us is that we’ve been doing both for decades,” Kozel said. “When you have a client coming in every four weeks for 20- plus years who is suddenly diagnosed with cancer, in a typical situation, they’d have to go somewhere else where people don’t know what they normally look like. With us, we know them, we know their look and it makes the transition so much easier.” In fact, Salon IAOMO’s relaxed and pampering atmosphere has vast experience in helping people suffering from diabetes, thyroid disorders, chemotherapy, alopecia, stress/trauma, postpartum depression, trichotillomania, hormonal hair loss, male or female pattern baldness and more.
