The public is invited to a ribbon-cutting ceremony and grand opening at The Beauty Vault Salon & Spa on Sunday, May 24, at 2:00 p.m. Snacks and refreshments will be served, and guests will receive take-home goody bags.
The salon, which is owned by Ashton Carrigan, offers a wide variety of services for its clientele, creating a unique experience with multiple beauty and wellness professionals under one roof.
Carrigan graduated from the cosmetology program at Aveda Arts & Sciences Institute in Charlotte in October 2022. She then opened her own salon at The Hair Lab Studio in Bethlehem.
As her clientele continued to grow, she opened The Beauty Vault, where she invited other self-driven women with their own specialized services to join her. Carrigan has also continued her education through custom coloring classes and extension certifications, with plans to add additional services in the future.
“This has been my passion since elementary school,” Carrigan said. “When I started classes at Aveda, my grandmother asked me what my vision was. I sketched a salon layout similar to what I now have, with all of these services. It’s amazing that it has come true in real life. I love helping people feel like the best version of themselves and feel beautiful. This has been my most rewarding job.”
