I thought I’d explain a little more clearly what Crown & Mane is and where I’m headed.
When I closed my Mount Dora studio, I spent the next two years maintaining my core clientele while continuing specialized education in hair extensions, hair replacement, wigs, toppers, cranial prosthetics, scalp care and non-surgical hair-loss solutions. I’ve also had business mentorship through the Ormond Beach Chamber of Commerce while preparing to open here.
My intention was always to open a hair studio—not a traditional salon.
Think of it a little like the difference between a medical spa and a traditional “fluff” spa. There can absolutely be beauty and fun here, but there is a specialty behind what I do.
My focus is scalp health, head spa, thinning hair, hair loss and wearable hair—whether someone has experienced hair loss from a medical issue, wants to replace the density she used to have, needs a topper combined with extensions, wants a full wig or semi-permanent non-surgical hair replacement, or simply wants to wear fabulous hair because it’s FUN. Festival hair and colorful wearable pieces belong here, too. Hair doesn’t have to be a medical necessity to be something you wear.
I also provide the color and cutting necessary to make these solutions work beautifully for my clients.
Insurance-eligible cranial prostheses are on the way. I initially planned to work as a contractor through a third-party company that handled the insurance side. After learning more about that model, I’ve decided I’d rather work toward handling it myself so I can keep pricing where I believe it should be for people experiencing a medical need—not inflate costs simply because insurance may be involved.
And one thing will not change:
I will never charge for a hair-loss or hair-replacement consultation.
You should be able to sit down, tell me what’s happening with your hair, learn what your options are and decide what feels right for you without paying just to have the conversation.
Crown & Mane is about the hair you grow, the hair you’ve lost, and the hair you choose to wear. 👑
