Michael's Salon and Spa employees were at the University of Dayton Men's Basketball game on January 12th giving away a FREE iPad. The lucky winner of the iPad was Brian Reis. Brian, a local Wright State University Graduate, is a UD Basketball life fan and is a season ticket holder.

In case you missed it, last night Michael's Salon and Spa employees were at the University of Dayton Men's Basketball game advertising for their upcoming drawing for a FREE iPad!




Did not make it to the game? Don't worry! You still have a chance, just text the word "FLYERS" to the number 69302 by Friday January 14. The drawing will be on Friday. Good luck!

We want to share a couple of mentions Michael's Salon has received in local and national media in the past week!

First, the local Centerville-Washington Township Times featured Michael's team with the University of Dayton Cheerleaders. We are proud to be the Official Salon of the UD Flyer Cheerleaders - and there's only a few more games left! Go Flyers!

Next, in the coming issue of Sophisticate's Hairstyle Guide, Michael's Salon is listed in Sophisiticate's Exclusive Salon Guide: "Where to go to get the hottest looks and the freshest styles in a town near you." Michael's was selected as THE salon to go to in Ohio:

"Transform yourself inside or out at this Dayton-area salon and spa. In addition to a full menu of hair services, Michael's also offers a full range of spa services, spray tanning, pampering packages and laser hair treatments. For a new 'do, opt for a design cut, starting at $27. If you're looking for a sleeker silhouette, try an anti-curl treatment, starting at $74. For those concerned with hair thinning, Michael's offers Laser Hair Therapy, which uses non-thermal, cool lasers to bathe the scalp and hair in a therapeutic red light for a fuller feeling of hair. Treatments start at $250 per month."

As Michael's Salon enters into a new decade, a Culture Shift is under way to ensure that we give our clients 110%. This Culture Shift encompasses many things, including the recent renovation of the salon including all new PhotoArt by Michael, a renewed focus on customer service, and increased involvement in the community.

Along with a fresh coat of paint, the walls at Michael's Salon were revamped with new artwork - all photographs taken by Michael himself on his travels around the world. Limited edition reproductions of Michael's PhotoArt are available for purchase, with all proceeds being donated to the American Heart Association Go Red for Women Campaign. See the video below for more information:



Some of Michael's renewed focus on customer service can be seen here on our blog. Our weekly "How To" videos have been a big hit, as well as our monthly Designer Spotlights, and we have been successful in reaching out to many women in the community through social media. But none of these efforts mean anything if we can't keep our clients happy in the salon. We have a client survey in the works so that you can all leave us feedback and tell us what we're doing right - as well as what we can improve on. This survey is coming soon - probably with a giveaway, so look for it in the coming weeks!

Michael's has reached out to the community recently, and we've got more planned! We are proud to be the Official Salon of the UD Flyer Cheerleaders. Also, as mentioned above, we are working with the American Heart Association Go Red for Women Campaign, and have several events planned with them over the course of this year.

This past Saturday, the corporate team took a moment to recognize the outstanding staff that we have here at Michael's with a celebration of the changes we've made and that are yet to come. At this celebration, Michael recognized several employees that were selected by their peers to receive awards.

Michael's is proud to be the Official Salon of the UD Cheerleaders. Our team was at the game last night to support the Flyers, and to give away a spa gift basket, with over $300 in services and products. Congratulations to Barb Wellmeier, our gift basket winner!

Here are some pictures of Michael's Team at the game:

Michael's Team with the UD Cheerleaders

Michael's Salon is proud to support the University of Dayton Cheerleaders, and to be a part of the UD community!

As we announced last week, Michael's Salon is the Official Salon of the University of Dayton Cheerleaders:

The Flyers had their home opener vs. Creighton last Saturday, and what an exciting game it was! The cheerleaders led the crowd through a close game, and the Flyers came out on top. If you've never been to a UD Basketball game, it's hard to describe the atmosphere in UD Arena - it's electric! The fans are so supportive and into the game, the pep band is excited as they dance and play, and the cheerleaders are tumbling, stunting and cheering non-stop!

Michael's Salon and Spa is proud to support the UD Cheerleaders and to be a part of this awesome University of Dayton community!

The entire Michael's Team is excited to be able to support the UD Flyer Cheerleaders. The University of Dayton has a great community, and we are happy to be a part of it.

Along with providing services for the cheerleaders, Michael's staff will wear UD shirts on game days, and will get to attend some games as well.  Go Flyers!
