Running with Scissors |
 |
 |
As Dayna Sweeney was working at her profession in Indiana one rather hectic day, she thought if I ever have a salon of my own I will name it "Running with Scissors". Not to mention her mother was always reminding her as a little girl not to "run with scissors"!
So the name stuck and now Dayna has moved back to her home town and set up a salon on the east edge of Lenox, 3035 110th Street, Lenox, IA.
Dayna graduated from the Professional Cosmetology Institute in Ames, Iowa. She then practiced for three years in Indianapolis, Indiana before making the desision to return to Lenox. Family and friends are delighted to welcome her back home where they can experience her expertise.
Dayna offers precision cuts for men, women, and children. Custom colors and highlights, nail and waxing services and special ocassion "Updo's". Give her a call at 641-333-2611 to find out more.
