HOW DID LAYNE & CO. START?
Well, Layne is Shelbys middle name. When trying to find a perfect salon name, Layne just seemed to fit perfectly. While owning a Salon has always been a dream of Shelbys, she first wanted to get her college degree while playing Division I softball. With her plan in motion she graduated early with Honors, Cum Laude.
Shelby is a native Austinite, born and raised, so being able to bring hard work and talent back to her home town is something she always dreamed of. Shelby is extremely passionate about the beauty industry, which only continues to grow daily. Her mission is to educate her clients properly, spread love, kindness, and confidence to all those who she crosses paths with.
Shelby opened her salon studio the week following graduation from Paul Mitchell, the School Austin in 2017. While building her career as an independent stylist she stayed in salon suites for 4 years until September of 2021. She was able to open Layne & Co. with extreme determination and hard work.
