Alda Gentile, at the chair for 30 years.

Alda has owned Hair Essentials & Beauty Bar in Byron since August 2011. Before that came decades at the chair, and the salon today is the place where all of that experience comes together in one room.

She is a master hairstylist with thirty years of experience and a master nail technician who has worked with Creative nail products for more than twenty years. That is why the salon can offer hair, nails, and esthetics under one roof, by one expert hand rather than a rotating cast.

Her philosophy is simple, and it is the salon's motto: guests are the canvas, and the art is created together. You bring the idea, Alda brings the craft, and you leave looking like the best version of yourself.
