Spiralz Salon—New Location, Same Great Service
Spiralz Salon owner, Karin Dav-
enport, has moved her business from her
downtown location to her home.
The location of Spiralz Salon is
on the very south side of Vernonia just
off Highway 47. In fact she isn’t actu-
ally in the City limits and had to get all
her building permits through Columbia
County. Her house and shop sit behind
another home just at the rise heading out
of town—there is a small yellow flag
with a butterfly that indicates the grav-
el driveway, just past River Street, that
leads back to the new location.
The new Spiralz Salon has a
welcoming feel, with Karin’s usual
touches of class and style. Spiralz Sa-
lon will continue to offer the same hair
services as before: cuts, coloring, and
perms. Davenport is available by ap-
pointment only and has a new phone
number.
Davenport says she moved for
two main reasons. After being flooded
in 2007 and spending a lot of time and
effort remodeling, she just didn’t want to
take the chance of being flooded again.
And she wanted to cut down on over-
head.
The Davenports spent the last
year remodeling the attached garage into
a beautiful salon, complete
with two chairs, hair wash-
ing sink and more. They
installed a ductless heat
pump with an allergen
filter, and a handicapped
accessible restroom. Her
husband did all of the work
himself and their two sons
Tyler and Trevor helped
when they could. They
did have a little extra help
from a family friend on the
plumbing and NW Total
Home did the cabinetry.
Now that she has been
open for a few weeks,
Davenport is recognizing
an extra perk to her new
location--the new salon is
quieter and more comfort-
able for her clients. At her downtown
location, she found she was frequently
interrupted while she worked; at the new
location people seldom drop by unan-
nounced. “Being here is going to change
the atmosphere,” she says. “I just want
it to feel calm, relaxed, serene and com-
fortable for people.”
Davenport says she also appre-
to enjoy while getting
their hair cut. “It’s just so
people can feel relaxed
while they are here,” ex-
plains Davenport.
Davenport is planning
an Open House to wel-
come everyone to her
new location. It is sched-
uled for Sunday July 10
from 1-5 PM. Stop by
for hors d’oeuvres and
refreshments and a tour
of the new shop.

ciates that she can provide easy access
parking for her clients. “After being
downtown where I was and not having
any parking, it’s pretty great to have this
wide open space for parking,” she says.
She also mentioned that her old location
is now available for rent.
Davenport
just
re-
ceived her first shipment of Hair Feath-
ers and Tinsel which are the newest hair
extension craze. The feathers are reus-
able and are placed in the hair with a mi-
cro bead and can last up to 8 weeks. The
hair Tinsel lasts a few weeks. Daven-
port is stocking a few self tanning prod-
ucts this summer as well. One feature to
her new salon is her small refrigerator
which she hopes clients take advantage
of in what she’s calling “Bring a warm
one, have a cold one” Clients can bring
a warm beverage of their choice, put it
in her refrigerator, and take a cold one
