Life on the Fringe: #WBBizBuzz Featuring Fringe Salon
“Take chances. They are worth it in the end.”
That’s the quote that Fringe Salon founder Alessandra Anderson chose for her high school yearbook, but it has guided her professionally as well. For starters her location, at 151 N. Main Street in West Bend, just went through a total remodel from top to bottom (Or head-to-toe, since it is a salon after all). And the results look great!
While keeping as much of the original building as possible, she was able to preserve most of the original flooring, baseboards and walls at the front of the salon. However, the entire ceiling is now a beautiful new tin style. She also removed all the old carpeting inside and made the hardwood floors more presentable.
Fringe is a full-service hair salon that offers haircuts, colors, waxing and more. As far as hair trends and specialties go, Alessandra makes sure that she is on top of all the popular styles. Whether it be hand painting highlights onto the hair, a technique known as balayage, lobs, beach waves or variations of the timeless shag, she has seen many popular styles come and go, and many others that have remained long-time favorites. Whatever you want, she can handle it.
Alessandra at work
Alessandra tries to make everyone feel comfortable in her chair. Whether they are male, female, adult or child, everyone is welcome at her salon. This is a mantra she tries to live by outside of the salon too. She and her husband try their best to be involved in as many things in the West Bend community as they can.
“That’s the thing about West Bend,” Alessandra said, “There’s almost always something to do. No matter what time of year it is.”
And this doesn’t just mean everyday things. Alessandra and her family are also active with several non-profits, including Destination Dino-Liam, an organization that helps organize road trips for families dealing with childhood cancers.
Being so involved and busy, it is no wonder that Alessandra cites Dory from the Disney movie “Finding Nemo” as her favorite character. She says that she too gets distracted by almost every little thing, especially when a cute dog walks by.
