History

Established in 1998.

Shaima started her beauty career in 1985 in South Ozone Park. Working for various salons in Ozone Park and Forest Hills, she ventured off and opened her own salon in 1998. Her clientele followed her to the new area, and she has gained more clients in both the Glendale area and some travel as far as Long Island & Manhattan on a regular basis.

She is known for her honesty and commitment to her craft. Her salon is her second home and she welcomes her clients as if they were her guest. Throughout the years, her clients have not only built a personal relationship with her, but with one another as well.

Throughout the years, she has expanded her sellable items from hair products and hair tools to accessories such as jewelry, scarves, and handbags.

Shaima A.

Business Owner

Starting her career in 1985, Shaima received her license and started working for a local salon as a shampoo girl. After a few months, she moved on and worked at Reuters Hair Salon in South Ozone Park for 10 years, initially as an assistant, eventually building her her own clientele. When Reuters closed in 1995, she moved onto Mannys for 3 years.

In 1998, she took a leap of faith and opened her own salon in Glendale. The rest, as they say, is history.
