Twenty years ago it was a white bungalow with a For Sale sign and two chairs.
Today it is two salons in the same Heights neighborhood, still woman owned. Cherryl drove past in 2006, saw the light pouring through the french doors, and put down roots. Two chairs became seven, then one salon became two. Swipe for the whole story.
Been coming to Shine for a while? Comment the year you first walked in. New to the Heights? The link in our bio saves you a chair at either door.
Bella's whole thing is color you can forget about for months.
She specializes in balayage and lived in color, so your grow out looks intentional instead of stressful. She is also Bellami extension certified for length or volume, and the salon's Kerastase rep when your hair needs rescuing. Low maintenance is the entire goal.
Want color that survives a busy life? Book Bella at Shine in the Heights.
Cherryl has said the same four words for twenty years.
Look good, feel good. It is painted into the salon, printed on the pillows, and it is the entire point of what happens in the chair. You should walk out of the Heights bungalow lighter than you walked in.
Come find out what look good feel good actually feels like. Book at Shine in the Heights.

A butterfly cut is two haircuts hiding in one.
Gin layers the top short to build volume around the face, then leaves the length long underneath. Grown out, it falls into soft pieces that frame your face instead of one flat length. This is the cut behind that big bouncy blowout.
Want movement without losing your length? Book a butterfly cut with Gin at Shine in the Heights.
There is a reason 36 people have stuck around this one bungalow.
The Shine team is stylists, colorists, and a front desk who actually like working together. Ana put it best on camera. Everyone helps each other out and nobody is mean about it. That is rare, and you feel it the second you sit down.
Come meet the team behind the Heights. Book at Shine in the Heights.

Black on top, red at the ends, and no hard line between them.
Ana cut long bouncy layers with curtain bangs, then melted a red ombre through the bottom so the color moves when the hair does. The blowout shows off both. Swipe for the back.
Ready for color that turns heads from behind? Book Ana at Shine in the Heights.
You can read a salon before anyone touches your hair.
The green couch, the stack of magazines, the SHINE ON pillow, the little sign out front pointing you in. This is the Heights bungalow our regulars settle into every week. Come see why they call it their reset.

The green only shows when she lifts the top layer.
Under all that dark brunette, Ana hid a green raccoon tail stripe. Worn down it reads as regular brown hair for work or school. Part it or lift it and the color flashes through. Swipe from the plain before to the reveal.
