This small, low-key salon, founded in 1993, can be found in a one-story complex on University Drive. The owner of Creative Hair Designs, Laura Shumski, specializes in hair color and rents part of her salon to an esthetician and a manicurist. A comfortable and stylish couch and pillows make for a calm waiting area where the noise level never gets loud enough to distract one from reading the assortment of magazines provided for clients. Shumski does not have set hours, and she welcomes all walk-in clients. Creative Hair Designs has held a few private events, such as doing hair for weddings. This salon, however, tries to keep private events infrequent since the salon is very small. Creative Hair Designs does not accept credit cards.
