Shear Bliss History

One cannot tell the history of Shear Bliss without telling of its creator, Lori Saleem. With a background in organic gardening & the Culinary Arts from Cornell, Lori chose to attend Santa Barbara Cosmetology College in 1981 while taking many available courses in Massage. After spending many years working in different salon environments, Lori moved to Massachusetts planning her dream of hosting a non-toxic Salon which could naturally beautify & service the “Whole Person”.

In 1989 Shear Bliss Holistic Salon & Spa was finally born in South Amherst! Many clients over the years have enjoyed the variety of peaceful & upscale services covering the whole body from head to toe! Shear Bliss’ current location provides a cozy, private & wonderful experience for many in need of upgrading their appearance. Many have enjoyed having a place to relax, unwind and leave rejuvenated as well as looking fresh and updated. Lori’s belief in botanicals for wellness and beauty continue to be the dominating paradigm at Shear Bliss Holistic Salon.

The unique services provided at Shear Bliss are upscale and reflect the latest fashion trends. “The less toxic the product the more naturally attractive the client becomes.” Lori says. For example, haircutting for men, women & children begin with a consultation, aromatherapy scalp & neck massage, botanical shampoo & condition, the cut and a “how to” lesson. To ensure complete customer satisfaction, any haircut service is given a week for the client to call for a complimentary cut adjustment. All of the other varied services follow the same personal, upscale botanical experience.
