Since the age of 19, Sally has worked in hair salons. After gaining years of experience in both the salon and as a cosmetology teacher, Sally fulfilled her dream of becoming a salon owner in 1994 when she opened Main Street Beauty Works. During the first year, she continued teaching cosmetology while spending the rest of her time behind the chair doing hair.
Her daughter Heather followed in Sally's footsteps and graduated from Vo-Tech a year later. They both took the leap to work full-time at the salon. In the early days, Sally specialized in creating wigs for cancer patients, while Heather worked as a full-time manicurist.
After six years, Sally relocated the salon to its current location on South Main Street. Since its opening, Main Street Beauty Works has built strong relationships with clients and stylists, cultivating a family-like environment.
In 2020, Heather took over as owner of Main Street Beauty works. Although she is the owner, she says she will never be Sally's boss.
Throughout the years, Heather and Sally have enjoyed working side by side and being a part of the community.
Heather plans to continue the legacy her mom built with their wonderful long-time staff.
Heather is the owner and senior stylist of Main Street Beauty Works. She combines over three decades of experience in cosmetology, with a true passion for color, style, and helping clients feel their true best. When she isn't using her creativity in the salon, she is spending time with her four children and long-time boyfriend.
Sally has been the industry for over 50 years, working at other salons, teaching cosmetology at York Vo-Tech, and working for the State Board testing girls for their license. Now working as semi-retired, Sally enjoys doing perms, haircuts, color services, and connecting with her clients.
