Our first Village of Gurnee Chamber that was picked for our member Spotlight was Salon Bliss. I have personally been to this salon and have nothing but great things to say. They are always friendly, do a great job and yes, open on Sundays! Here is my interview with Lisa Ruley, owner of Salon Bliss. I hope you enjoy reading as much as I had finding out all about this salon in Gurnee.

Lisa: Our Mission is an Acronym Beauty-Love-Integrity-Serenity-Sharing which spells Bliss; I feel we truly try to work by that at Salon Bliss

Cheryl: What are some interesting things about Salon Bliss that you would like to share with the Village of Gurnee Chamber members and those who follow this blog?

We work with Woodland School District and give each child who receives a 3.0 or higher a discount card with a 10% discount. We also work with different issues primarily due to death or illness, for children’s organizations, and sporting events.

Lisa: Another interesting thing is that every year since we have been open we are in the Gurnee Days Parade. We have won a plaque for our float every year.
