Meet Our Founder
Rachel Powers
At SHINE Blow Dry Bar, our journey began with the dream of one remarkable individual, our owner, Rachel Powers.
She's more than a hairstylist; she's a trusted name you've likely heard of. With over a decade of experience in the hair industry, Rachel is a true expert in her craft.
Her passion for making women look and feel their best is at the heart of her mission. When Rachel envisioned SHINE, she saw more than just a salon. Her goal was to create a haven where women could come to enjoy quality service in a comfortable and relaxing environment, all at an affordable price.
This year, in August 2023, Rachel's dream of owning her own blow dry bar became a reality. Her dedication, hard work, and unwavering commitment to her vision led to the opening of SHINE Blow Dry Bar.
Rachel's dream is now a haven for our community, where every woman can experience the magic of a professional blowout and a touch of luxury, all thanks to her vision and dedication.
We're proud to have Rachel as our leader and inspiration. Her dream is now our reality, and we invite you to be a part of it at SHINE Blow Dry Bar!
