Gaven Smith believes in a simple, universal truth about beauty. That is, "true beauty, regardless of trends, is something that never goes out of style." At Studio Gaven, this nationally renowned stylist and his highly trained team are passionate about creating a trademark look that is always in fashion: stunning, healthy, gorgeous hair. Awarded Best Salon for the past two years in Williamson Countys Sizzle Awards and continually named one of the top 200 Salons in America by Salon Today, Studio Gavens success can be attributed to the multi-dimensional talents of its service providers, which extend beyond simply applying hair color and trimming long locks. "Our guests look to us for our expert advice to design around the facial shape, enhance natural skin tones and work with the best products available anywhere, " says Gaven. How do they maintain such a high level of service? "Education is paramount to the success of our business, " says Gaven. By sending stylists to major cities in the U.S. and abroad to gain continued education on trends and techniques, as well as bringing nationally recognized talent to perform in-salon education, the staff at Studio Gaven are some of the most recognized and highly trained individuals in the country. With multi-tiered pricing and nearly 30 different stylists to accommodate a wide spectrum of tastes and styles, Studio Gavens team-based approach allows guests to be comfortable staying with one stylist for all their services or trying different hairdressers for different looks. They also understand todays hectic lifestyle. "Most our guests have extremely busy lives with a full calendar, " Gaven says. "By getting our guests in and out on time and by offering appointments six days a week ( the salon is also open until 9 P.M. four of those days ) we are able to accommodate even the most demanding schedule." In addition, Studio Gaven offers take-home regimens and in-salon treatments from Kerastase Paris, Pureology, Redken and Shu Uemura to keep guests looking great between visits. "After all, healthy hair is what its all about. A paintings texture is only as good as the canvas on which its painted, " says Smith.
