Hair salon hosting open house, ribbon cutting on Oct. 29
TIFFIN, OHIO – Oct. 22, 2020 – Having been in business for almost a year, Hair Studio 47 is announcing that it has completed renovations to their building and celebrating with an open house and ribbon cutting. The building, located at 47 N. Washington St., was the former Carmi’s Hairstyling.
Owner Alicia Smith and hairdresser Tecia Vassalle operate the hair salon for men and women and offer services including cuts, colors, eyebrow wax, perms and chemical treatments and beard trimming.
After purchasing the building in 2019, Alicia Smith and her husband, Ryan, invested into renovations of the interior and exterior. Frank Mangiola, who owned and operated the barber shop, was cousins with Alicia’s father, and she’s glad she can keep it in the family. The building also was the first location of Ralph’s Appliances, now Ralph’s Joy of Living at 33 N. Washington St.
“I am excited to be able to own my business in Tiffin and keep the tradition of this space going for years to come,” Alicia said. “A lot of people remember coming here as a kid to get their hair cut, and there were faithful clients until the end. I’m happy to open the doors back up for a lot of them and new clients, too.”
Tiffin Mayor Aaron Montz said, “Congratulations to Alicia and Ryan Smith on opening Hair Studio 47 and celebrating a year of business in Tiffin.”
An open house is 4-6 p.m. at the salon, with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 4:15 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 29. Hair Studio 47 is a member of Seneca Regional Chamber of Commerce and Visitor Services.
