I have always been quite a people person and love seeing people happy. Working in a salon gives me a chance to see people happy and confident. I always love the feeling when I first get my hair done. It's an immediate day brightener, and confidence booster. Working the front desk I get to see happy and confident people walk out of here all day, which really has a good effect on my own happiness and work ethic. I love working at Karma and working with happy, outgoing and talented women.

Lauren K. Whitt, Salon Coordinator/New Talent Apprentice

I have always loved anything and everything in the cosmetology field. But I knew I wanted to go to the University of Georgia one day, and I am so glad I decided to go because being there I discovered my love for helping others and a passion for organization. By being the Salon Coordinator here at Karma Salon & Spa I have had the opportunity to mesh these two passions. I get to be around skilled cosmetologists all day, see clients walk out looking great, and help clients stay satisfied. This is definitely the perfect career for me!
