History
Established in 2018.
An Rua (pronounced On-Rue) is a Gaelic word that loosely translates to a 'red-haired' person. However, the phrase is used to describe an attitude and spirit, not simply a hair color. Irish or not, An Rua embodies the fierce, strong and independent spirit of people. Befitting for a salon full of entrepreneurs!
We have a modern, boutique space that fosters a creative environment focused on the individual experience. Clients often compliment our collaborative, personal service and overall relaxing experience. An Rua takes pride in each stylist being an entrepreneur who empowers others through creativity, communication and collaboration. We are grateful and excited to be part of our city's bustling downtown area!
Our stylists focus heavily on continuing education, creating a genuine trust and understanding of your individual needs.
Meet the Business Owner: Kyleen I.
Kyleen has been doing hair professionally since 2008. Growing up she was drawn to hair, often practicing on family and friends. Athletics, however, took her to college instead of cosmetology school. After graduating and working in corporate settings, Kyleen realized her heart was in a different place and enrolled in cosmetology school. Accompanied by the discipline and hard work instilled from sports, she has found her passion and soared on her journey in the beauty industry. Becoming a salon owner allowed Kyleen to take charge of her future, both personally and professionally, and the freedom to continue fostering her creativity. She has landed where she belongs, visible to anyone who sits in her chair. Kyleen is certified in Pulp Riot color and Hotheads extensions.
Specialties: blonding/balayage highlights, extensions, and men's barbering.
Behind the scenes: traveling with her husband, watching sports or reality tv, drinking champagne!
