Brooke Hansen has always been a girl’s girl and a people person, which is one of the reasons she entered the hair industry to begin with. Making people feel better and making their day is a natural part of who she is and with 24 years of experience, her salon and her staff are elevating the industry with honesty and kindness at the forefront.
As a young woman, some of Brooke’s biggest inspirations were witnessing her mother and father pursue businesses and careers all while being supportive and lifting others around them. Humor and kindness are somethings that she both admires and has absorbed from her mother. She has learned that in life humor can help put things in perspective and help us face challenges with grace and a lighter heart.
As a business owner, she strives to be honest and respectful in everything she does. She has a genuine belief in supporting other salons and industry professionals as well, even if it means referring clients to other salons or individuals that they know would be a better fit for the client’s needs. Brooke’s focus is on who can take care of the client best, knowing that there are enough heads of hair for everyone.
She is both appreciative and proud of the women she has working for her and the environment and culture that they have created together with Suite C. Seeing how every stylist and employee she has brings their own creativity and energy into the salon and how they are always willing to help and support one another is a big deal to Brooke. She wants to ensure that her employees feel backed and encouraged in their growth and building who they are as stylists and individuals.
An environment where everyone is encouraged to embrace what makes them unique and to help others do the same also spills over into their clients. Focused on making sure the clients are comfortable and feel at home is a key ingredient to the magic of Suite C and it comes directly from their employees and stylists. Their goal is for each client to leave feeling inspired and more beautiful inside and out.
Beyond appreciative for an amazing staff and group of women that are supportive of one another; Brooke is focused on growing and expanding their business and keeping her integrity as a business owner. She hopes to model for her children what she witnessed growing up, letting them know that a good work ethic, being respectful of others and showing grace without judgment can get you through anything if you never give up.
My mother has taught me that humor can help put things in perspective and help us face challenges with grace and a lighter heart.
