MILFORD — Studio You Salon & Day Spa offers a personalized experience with health and wellness services including hairstyling, massage, facials, and personal training.
Owner Annie Tempus said the 39 N. Walnut St. store has these comprehensive resources in every corner.
“It was already a functioning salon, and as a personal trainer, I had been thinking about expanding the business for a few years,” she said. “I knew about the unfinished space and always wanted to create a wellness space.”
She felt Milford was the perfect location for the salon and spa.
“I feel like Studio You will fill the void,” she added. “Milford has a lot of great beauty professionals, but you have to fly around to get different services. I really wanted to create an experience centered around wellness.”
Tempas purchased the site in January and has been up and running for about a month. Employees are still putting the finishing touches on it.
“We’ve shifted to more of a health and wellness vibe,” she said. “This gives people the opportunity to meet their needs in one space.
“I love the excitement people get when they come in and notice how fresh the space is and how calming it is. Everyone comments that it’s a hidden gem.”
She credits the atmosphere with a team of professionals who have the knowledge to educate clients about health.
“Everyone has those skills. Everyone has a diverse education and a health-conscious mindset, so I’ve been very intentional about the professionals I hire. ” said Mr. Tempus.
“We all work together, so it’s a very collaborative experience.”
For example, she works closely with massage therapists to learn what clients need to work on during personal training sessions.
And while she loves having clients come in, she also wants to teach them self-care.
“We don’t want people to rely on us,” Tempus said. “We want people to take control of their own health. We want you to be able to go home and style your hair the same way. We want your hair, face, and skin to be healthy.
“I love that people understand that everything is connected and that we provide a space for everyone to be their best self.”
