Meet Jen.
Owner of Twelve18 & Allure Salon & Spa

While style changes, the sense for beauty doesn't.

​

Jen followed her creative nature through VICI cosmetology coursework, Aveda certifications, transformative sessions in London, Toronto, and New York City, and countless lowlights, highlights, cuts, and blowouts -- all for the love of hair, not dramatics, of course.

​

In 2008, Jen knew it was time to wholly commit to local roots and tap into her second sense-- business. Allure Salon and Spa was always the long-term goal line.

​

Since opening, styles have certainly changed (think full bangs, balayage, and fashion colors, oh my! The salon expanded quite literally in size, adding a spa and several high-demand services. 

​

Today, Jen enjoys seeing the Grafton, Wisconsin area shine, as much as her clients and professional talent. Whether it's behind her salon chair, teaching and learning from her staff, uniting for a fellow storefront, or school team, Jen leads with her three senses--

beauty, business and community.
