New salon, Model Behavior, opens up shop on W. Vernor
Helen Shaw has opened Model Behavior, a newly renovated space on W. Vernor in Southwest Detroit. The salon is a new venture for Shaw, who attended cosmetology school after being laid off from her factory job in 2005. She decided to open her own business after determining that the rent on her new space would be less than leasing a bay at the salon in which she currently works. Although Shaw initially had her heart set on a different storefront, she says Southwest Solutions “made it really easy for me to get into the space.” The location is near her home and the building is newly renovated. “I like the area, it’s really nice over there,” she says.
Shaw specializes in women’s hair of all types. Cutting, styling, coloring and weaving is available. Hours are Monday through Saturday 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Please call (313) 551-6033 for an appointment.Source: Helen Shaw, Model Behavior and Steve Palackdharry, Southwest Solutions
