Our story

Not your typical salon. An experience made for you.

Founded in March 2007, The Red Cottage was created to set a new standard for salon and spa guests — best-in-class care and results, without ever feeling intimidating.

With four generations of expertise, our team combines craft with continuous learning, so you always have access to the latest techniques and trends. We listen first — to your preferences in style, color and technique — and then we take care of everything else.
