“I just had a lot of fun decorating this place. It’s like the bachelorette pad of my dreams. Everyone’s coined it a maximalist salon”

Mandy Purvis, owner of Babe Cave 251

In short: a day spa without the time commitment – from you or stylists! Babe Cave 251 offers a wide variety of services including:

  • Full-service hair salon: cut, color, highlights, styling, the newly popular ‘hair tinsel’ + barber services for men
  • Eyebrows & lashes: lamination, tinting, extensions, microblading
  • Spa Services: facials, waxing, peels

All cosmetologists at Babe Cave 251 are independent contractors. They set their own prices & hours. All you have to do is make an appointment.

The Babe Cave also has a little boutique inside where you can find jewelry, keychains + other cute gift ideas.

“We have a little bit of everything in here! It’s a little quirky, stuff you won’t find everywhere.”

Mandy Purvis, owner of Babe Cave 251

Labor of Love

Mandy Purvis, owner of Babe Cave 251 is no stranger to hard work. She’s been an independent cosmetologist since 2020 and when she made that leap, she made up her mind—she’d have her own salon in 5 years. Well, it’s four years later & she already met that goal.

“I’m really big on setting your mind to things…I did not come from money. I had to hustle my butt off. It doesn’t matter what your goal is in life or your biggest heart’s desire, if you have the work ethic – it can happen. You don’t have to come from money to make your dreams happen.”
