East Bay Power Couple Opens 'Mane Square Haircuts' — A Salon for the Whole Family
Take one step into Mane Square Haircuts , the hair salon that opened in November on Crow Canyon Place in San Ramon, and you know it isn't an ordinary place to get a haircut.
To the right, there are six large, flatscreen televisions. In the corner, there are iPads for kids to play on. High-tech LED lights hang down from the ceiling and the floor is sleek hardwood. Oh, and to the left, styling seats are spread out in front of a wall-sized mirror.
Merge an Apple store with a Dave & Buster's to create a hair salon and it would probably look like Mane Square.
"We wanted a place for the whole family to go to get their hair cut," Stephane Dupont, who owns Mane Square with his wife TJ, said. "We wanted to appeal to everyone."
As interesting and unique Mane Square is cosmetically, what is more compelling are the owners — a Canadian power couple that moved to the East Bay 12 years ago — that knew next to nothing about hair before deciding to open a salon.
