Healthy hair and providing her clients with the knowledge to care for it, that is Amina Dionne’s goal for Amina’s Hair & Beauty Salon located at 440 Spruce St. Spend just a few minutes talking with this business owner and you quickly realize that she has a great deal of knowledge when it comes to hair and skin care.
Born and raised in Charleston, Amina moved to Morgantown in 2017, leaving a career in healthcare behind to follow her passion. Her children were all students at WVU and she realized that Morgantown was missing a salon that focused on ethnic hair and skin care. In 2019 she decided to open her own full-service salon, where everyone is welcome. She wants to create a culture where you can be pampered and be able to afford it. In the coming weeks you will find even more services available when she begins to offer full-service facials and hydro masks!
Amina also works with the Human Resource Development Foundation, Inc. (HRDF), to mentor graduates from the cosmetology field in a stepping-stone program. HRDF “assists thousands of West Virginians through advocacy, empowerment, and the successful administration of a wide variety of employment, occupational skill training and educational programs.” She hopes that by working with this organization she can encourage others to stay in West Virginia, like she did.
Let Amina fill you in with her wisdom and take you on a hair care journey at her relaxing salon, that smells amazing, and is covered in beautiful murals. You can follow her on Facebook and Instagram and check out the website for a list of services.
