    I wanted to introduce myself.. I’m Crissy I recently moved from Washington D.C. with my husband Travis. I’m a bonus mom to a sweet 10-year-old named Caden and an adoring aunt to 5 amazing nephews back in my home state of Minnesota. I have been a hairdresser for over 27 years. My specialty when it comes to hair is high impact blondes and multidimensional rich brunettes. I love finding the perfect placement that blends grey hair with coverage to get the maximum wear without the harsh grow out. Attention to detail is so important. Once the foundation is cut, I like fine tuning with dry cutting. Not to forget men or teenage haircuts. I started my career at both a high-end salon and an old school barbershop. Having my nephews I am well trained in “man language” little chat but a perfect haircut. I take pride in truly listening to every detail to accomplish a hairstyle you will love. I love what I do because of the people I meet. I’m a girl’s girl who loves the Washington Capitals hockey team, the color pink, my dog Faith, the USA, and working out. When I first walked into Dandelion Salon, I instantly loved it and knew it was the perfect place for me. I hope you will feel the same! Crissy Ocken

    Hi! I’m Jeanette Wade-owner and founder of Dandelion Salon Co., a cozy, boutique salon & spa, rooted in Jesus. Dandelion’s are strong & resilient, & were always the perfect gift from our children’s innocent hands. As a blended family, we knew we had to be different for our children. Strength & resilience came from God. We raised our children in Bennington, & quickly realized what a faith filled community we are blessed with. We always knew we wanted to provide a space where faith could flourish and you could leave feeling confident, beautiful, & pampered. Now that we feel we have, we think our name is just the right fit. 🤍 With 30 years behind the chair, I’ve learned that the relationships you build with your guests, become so much more. Those relationships start with trust, and grow into beautiful friendships. Behind the chair, my favorite services are blondes and deep chocolate browns. I love to pamper my guests. Whether that’s an eye treatment, a hand or shoulder massage or picking something from our drink menu, you are with me for only a short time, but I hope you feel heard & loved. When I’m not behind the chair, you’ll find me being a mom and a wife, to my three amazing kids, and husband. (Oh, and our mini zoo that seems to keep growing 🤣) Thanks for being here. We can’t wait to meet you & show you around. 🤍 🤍Her Identity & Worth are Rooted in Christ "She is clothed with strength and dignity, and she laughs without fear of the future" Proverbs 31:25🤍
