Today we’d like to introduce you to Danny Jelaca.
Hi Danny, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
I moved here from Minneapolis 30 years ago and worked for Stella salon as a stylist until it became defunct in 2007. I worked for a couple salons after that really motivated me to open my own Salon. There is no beautiful boutique high-end salon that is departmentalized on Miami Beach. So, I created the space. First a small 900 sq ft salon for 5 years and now a 2200 sq for salon that is a one-stop shop including med spa component. With services not only for haircut, styling, and color but for skin care services, Botox, filler, collagen threads, iv drips. Emsculpt, emtone, emsella
I’m sure you wouldn’t say it’s been obstacle free, but so far would you say the journey has been a fairly smooth road?
It has been challenging especially when I closed the first salon in order to move to the new location. I abandoned a beautiful build out and the new construction took 18 months. Meanwhile paying two rents. Recruiting is challenging because in general people don’t like change so it’s hard to get stylists and colorists to move. Although the scary part is done, they are still scared. So, you need to have patience
