Debbie Doolittle
Owner, Master Stylist, Master Colorist, Certified Color Specialist
I am a Master Stylist and the founder of Transformations Hair and Body, a salon that was established in 1993. My main objective has always been to provide our clients with an exceptional experience that goes beyond their expectations. Recently, I transitioned to my new salon, Transcend Salon, a more intimate space but my commitment to this profession remains the same which is to help people look and feel their absolute best. Ongoing education is a top priority for me as it keeps my creativity flowing and enables me to bring the latest trends and techniques to my valued clients. The warm and inviting atmosphere of my salon has garnered praise from our clients, who consider it a true sanctuary.
