We Are Folawns
THIS IS OUR STORY
Welcome to Folawns Medical Spa and Salon, a sanctuary of beauty and wellness that has been serving the community since 1994. Our journey began with an ambitious vision by Terry Folawn, who opened a modest 1,800 sq. ft. salon with just five chairs on Blanco Rd. From these humble beginnings, Terry's passion for excellence and innovation laid the foundation for what would become a thriving hub of creativity and care.
By 1998, Folawns Hair Co. had evolved into The Day Spa @ Folawns, expanding into a 2,500 sq. ft. AVEDA lifestyle salon and spa. This period of growth was marked by the addition of talented individuals who shared Terry's commitment to quality and service. The year 2006 saw a significant milestone with Ken Folawn, Terry's husband, joining as an active partner. Together, they propelled Folawns into becoming one of the most successful salons and spas in the country.
The Journey to Folawns Today
In 2014, Terry and Ken's daughter, Hailee Folawn, joined the team as a beauty consultant. Her dedication and passion for the family business quickly became evident, and she is now our general manager, aspiring to one day take over the family business and continue its legacy.
In 2017, our boldest move yet was relocating to a spacious 6,000 sq. ft. building in Rogers Ranch, a testament to our continued expansion and dedication to providing unparalleled services. The onset of the global pandemic in 2020 did not deter us; instead, it inspired a transformation into a medical spa, partnering with a medical director to broaden our offerings. We introduced the renowned SkinCeuticals skincare line, enhancing our clients' experiences with advanced skin treatments.
Our evolution didn't stop there. In 2021, we enriched our product range with the introduction of Jane Iredale makeup and Kerastase hair care products, complementing our trusted AVEDA line. This rebranding phase saw us embrace the name Folawns Medical Spa and Salon, reflecting our expanded services and commitment to holistic beauty and wellness.
Today, under the expert partnership with our Medical Director Dr. Hannah Hamlin, we have doubled our staff and services, growing from a small 5 chair salon to a full scale Medical Spa and Salon powerhouse. Our 6,000 sq. ft. facility now provides over 50 employment opportunities, fostering community growth and development. At Folawns, we are more than just a salon and spa; we are a family dedicated to helping you look and feel your best.
