Half Moon Bay, Ca: Aqua Beauty Lounge, a full service salon located
within the Shops at Harbor Village, will formally introduce itself to
the Coastal business community by hosting their Grand Opening Event at
Harbor Village on Thursday March 29th,, 2012 from 6:00-9:00 pm.
Aqua Beauty Lounge is an upscale salon specializing in haircuts for
(men, women, and children) color, retexturing, bridal/special occasion
styling, makeup, and waxing services. They also carry a complete line
of luxury hair care products such as Bumble & Bumble and Pureology and
primarily use Goldwell Color Systems. They are open 7 days a week 9-5
and by appointment, always willing to accommodate walk-in guests.
While the original business plan for Aqua Beauty Lounge was developed
overtime, the concept was finally formalized towards the middle of
2011 when owners, Jenny Rico (age 27) and Katelyn Mullins (age 27),
started the general partnership as 50/50 partners. The story behind
the girls coming together dates back even further. Both Jenny Rico and
Katelyn Mullins actually attended Half Moon Bay High School, where
they both first met.
Jenny Rico was originally born in Mexico Salamanca, Guanajuato. She
came to live in Half Moon Bay during her Sophomore Year of high school
where she immediately realized her passion for beauty and initially
conceived the dream to one day open up a salon of her own. Shortly
after graduating from Half Moon Bay High School, she attended
cosmetology school and is now working towards 8 years as a stylist.
Katelyn Mullins is a third generation Half Moon Bay resident to Nancy
Mullins and the Late Battalion Chief Gene Mullins, who served with the
South County Fire Protection Authority from 1975 through the mid 90’s.
Katelyn attended Farallone View Elementary, Cunha Intermediate, and
Half Moon Bay High School. After high school, Katelyn moved to San
Diego, Ca where she received her B.A. in Communication from San Diego
State University and later attended Paul Mitchell Cosmetology School.
Missing her friends and family on the Coast Side, and having a passion
for cosmetology she moved back to Half Moon Bay where she reunited
with high school friend and fellow hairstylist, Jenny Rico, at Mizu
Salon El Granada.
When they found out that Mizu El Granada may be put up for sale or
have the lease terminated the two immediately realized that all of
their past, efforts, goals and dreams could be seized by taking the
leap of faith and launching their own salon. They immediately saw the
potential of Harbor Village.
From the allure from the pipeline of weddings booked through the
Oceano Hotel and Spa, to the beautiful ambiance of the mall, the girls
saw Harbor Village as the ideal location to launch Aqua Beauty Lounge.
Aiming to maintain an amiable and cohesive salon environment, the
girls decided to bring along stylists and long time Half Moon Bay
residents, Tyla Piercy (Formerly Tyla Henschel), Lacey Clark, Malenda
Silva and Coley Nishkian. They have also recently brought on board
Herman Ortiz and Natalie Morris to round out their incredibly dynamic
team of local talented stylists.
The vision for Aqua Beauty Lounge was to create a modern and trendy
ambiance that would differentiate their salon from others of the
Coastside. The Aqua Beauty Lounge mission is to provide Coastside
locals with the convenience of being able to receive top quality
services at affordable prices in a salon with a more upscale feel,
without having to drive over the hill or to the city.
GRAND OPENING will take place on Thursday March 29th from 6:00- 9:00 pm
