As Luxe&Lavish Salon and Luxie Boutique have grown, I’ve been lucky to build a team of talented women who bring so much care, creativity, and dedication to our businesses.

First up is our Head of Operations and Front-End Manager, Chris—but many of you know her best as “Mom.” She isn’t just my mom; she’s the heart of our team, with a gift for making everyone who walks through our doors feel at home. From managing Luxie Tanning to coordinating ordering, receiving, and processing new merchandise, she keeps so many parts of our business moving. She also oversees the front of house and helps organize and plan everything that happens behind the scenes. Her warmth and hard work are woven into everything we do.

Seaann is our Lead Makeup Artist, Photographer, and Social Media Content Creator. Specializing in airbrush bridal makeup, lash extensions, and lash lifts and tints, she brings creativity and incredible attention to detail to her work at Luxe&Lavish Salon. Those same talents shine through in her photography, model styling, and the content she creates for our businesses. A UWEC graduate, Seaann also manages our website and coordinates photo shoots, helping bring the Luxie vision to life both online and in person.

Our Boutique Coordinator, Chris, plays an essential role in the daily flow of Luxie Boutique. She handles much of the boutique’s day-to-day activity, keeping things organized and helping customers enjoy a welcoming, personal shopping experience. Alongside her work in the boutique, she owns and operates her own permanent jewelry business inside the salon, adding another special experience to our space. Her care and dedication make her a valued part of the Luxie team.

These incredible women are a huge part of why we’ve been able to grow and thrive. I’m so grateful for the talents each of them brings and the heart they put into caring for our customers and our businesses.

At Luxie Boutique, we believe great style should be inclusive and shopping should feel effortless and enjoyable. Whether you visit us in person or shop online, our team is here to help you find pieces you love and feel confident wearing. We’re so glad you’re here!

What began as a dream and a single salon chair has grown into three thriving businesses rooted in passion, creativity, and heart.

I opened Luxe&Lavish Salon in 2017, shortly after graduating from cosmetology school, with a vision that went beyond hair and beauty services. My goal was to create a space where women felt truly seen, confident, and cared for—a place built on connection, trust, and self-love.

From those early days working out of my home to expanding into our location at 131 West Lincoln Street in Augusta, the journey has been one of faith, growth, and incredible community support. Luxe&Lavish has grown into a full-service salon offering expert hair, makeup, facials, lashes, and bridal beauty. More than a salon, it has become a second home for our clients and artists—where confidence is built and friendships are formed.

In 2020, during one of the most uncertain seasons for small businesses, I felt called to take another leap of faith. That leap became Luxie Boutique What started as a small extension of the salon quickly grew into a space women truly connected with. Luxie Boutique is designed for women of all shapes and sizes to find styles that make them feel confident, beautiful, and completely themselves.

As our community continued to grow, so did our vision. That led to the creation of Luxie Tanning —a luxury tanning experience focused on confidence, self-care, and glowing safely. Luxie Tanning was created to help our clients feel their best year-round, complementing the beauty and style experiences we already offered.

Today, Luxe&Lavish Salon, Luxie Boutique, and Luxie Tanning stand side-by-side as a reflection of resilience, hard work, and the power of women supporting women.

Outside of business, I’m a wife and a mom. My husband, Brandon, and our three children—Bentlee, Austyn Kennedy, and Graysyn “Gigi”—are my greatest inspiration and the heart behind everything I do. They remind me daily that success isn’t just about what we build, but about the love, values, and community we create along the way.

At the core of everything we do is a simple belief: when women support women, magic happens. ✨
