Meet our team!
Julie Meikle (Owner/Stylist)
Julie's passion for hairstyling blossomed at a young age. Starting her journey at the age of 15, she began honing her skills in hair and makeup artistry, just playing around with friends and family. As she transitioned into her junior year of high school, Julie extended her services beyond her immediate circles, offering her skill to young women attending proms, homecomings, and even weddings.
Post-graduation from high school, Julie pursued formal education in cosmetology, anticipating her graduation in July of 2020. However, unforeseen circumstances transpired in March of that year, that threw her off course. Not put off by the setback, Julie remained focused and ultimately achieved her goal of graduation.
Embracing the entrepreneurial spirit, Julie promptly ventured into booth renting upon completing her cosmetology degree. Using the power of social media, she built a loyal clientele from scratch. Jumping on a great chance, Julie took the plunge and decided to set up Salon 212, marking a fresh start in her career journey. Right now, she's knee-deep in the thrill of making her dream salon a reality..
