Mother’s Day is special at Eliegante

It was a Saturday I’ll never forget.

The date was May 13, 2007, and I had just gotten the keys to our new salon here on Upper James Street near the escarpment in Hamilton.  In two days, we would be re-opening our doors to the public and being a day-maker for our clients in this wonderful new space.  Yes, this coming Mothers Day weekend we will be celebrating 10 years at this location!  Wow!  And actually, this month is extra special because we have one of our amazing stylists getting married!  I’m pretty sure someone around here is going to be covered in cake and confetti (probably me, lol).

But that Saturday in 2007 wasn’t so special because of the building.  We’ve done lots over the years to improve our salon so we can offer our guests a luxurious style getaway.  Recently we updated our upper level to make it feel more relaxing while your hair is being coloured or styled.  But what I love most now is what I loved most then: the people that we get to spend time with while we do what we do best.

That morning, I got the pleasure of having my wife, mother and mother-in-law all here at the salon together to have their hair cut.  What a privilege to be able to have these special women as my first guests at our new salon, and to bless them on Mother’s Day with a gift that I’ve loved offering for so much of my life.  If I was their day-maker that morning then great, because I’m just returning the favour!

I wish all moms out there a Happy Mother’s Day this weekend and, if you’re looking to treat yourself to a day at the spa (or you are looking for a great gift idea for your emmi – that’s mom in Lebanese) give us a call and we’ll set a date to make you look and feel great!

We have special Mother’s Day gift cards too!  Buy a $40 card and your mom will receive an additional $10 off ($50 total value) her next style getaway when she visits during her birthday month.
