Our Dream Team


 
 
 

Kellie

Kellie takes a laid back approach to most everything and business ownership is no different. After realizing that the corporate salon setting wasn’t for her, she opened Salon 717 in January of 2013. Since then she has worked to create an atmosphere where guests and staff feel relaxed, supported and at home. Outside of doing hair, Kellie stays connected with community service organizations and enjoys the opportunity to lend her time and talent to whoever may need it. Kellie enjoys quality time with her husband and three kiddos, nature, & time with family & friends.
