A trip to the salon is more than just a makeover – it's a chance to rediscover and express your personal and professional self. No matter if it's a fresh cut, blowout, or new color, your emotional well-being, social interactions, and professional identity are impacted which is why finding the right salon can be a huge undertaking.
As a result, Babes & Bubbles in Overland Park has become the go-to destination for transformative experiences, and thrilled clients are taking to social media to flaunt their gorgeous hairstyles, spreading the word, and inspiring others.
"After years in the industry, I wanted to build a salon environment that not only provides top-tier services but also feels like a community,” explained co-owner Tabitha Mohler. “Babes & Bubbles is about more than just hair; we create relationships, boost confidence, and make sure every client leaves feeling their best.”
Business partners Tabitha Mohler, Brooke White, and Madeline Sutmiller opened Babes & Bubbles Hair Salon in 2023.
So what sets this salon apart? It's the confidence that comes with knowing they're experts in their craft, especially in blonding.
Many of their clients book their appointments after coming across videos of women sharing their dramatic blonde transformations, courtesy of Babes & Bubbles.
“Our work speaks for itself; we decided instead of offering every type of service out there, we know exactly what we're good at,” added Tabitha. “I think that people know that they can trust us.”
Tabitha and the team routinely take educational classes to keep up with the latest trends and perfect their exceptional blonding services. From annual hair classes to online programming, Babes & Bubbles is continuously adding new styling techniques to their arsenal while discovering innovative products and gaining a deeper understanding of hair care and maintenance.
Tabitha says finding the right stylist is all about looking for someone who knows what works with your face shape and overall lifestyle.
"I would recommend finding somebody that specializes in what you're looking for," said Tabitha. “We get a lot of our clientele from Instagram, where people search for blonde specialists or lifting specialists. I’d say the majority of my clients – about 9 out of 10 – come from Instagram.”
It’s a new year, and with the turn of the season, Tabitha says to get ready for one-length bobs enriched with glossy hair color as an up-and-coming trend.
Root melts, a hair coloring technique that blurs the transition between darker roots and lighter, highlighted hair, is also making a splash, along with voluminous blowouts, which captivated runways and fashion magazines in the 90’s. Think bouncy, salon-ready Cindy Crawford hair, guaranteed to be picture-perfect.
“I really love that the volume hairstyles are coming back; we're seeing a lot of velcro rollers, we love to do blowouts, and we'll actually be starting a blow-dry membership at some point,” said Tabitha.
It’s been two years since Babes & Bubbles opened their doors, and over the years, hundreds of happy clients have become loyal to the team, knowing they can trust them for weddings, corporate parties, a quick touch-up, or in need of beauty therapy. Just remember, maintaining healthy hair is a team effort.
“Do what makes you feel good, and hair is so important; we look at it every day, and I always tell my clients, I know it feels great when you leave here, but you have homework too, to keep it and maintain it,” said Tabitha.
