I’m proud that our team wants to make the world a better place through relationships, education, connections, and of course making you all look your best.

I chose to open Beauty Operators in Council Bluffs on the Historic 100 Block because I saw a need here for a high-end salon and I love this community. Click the book button below to schedule.

Will Travel for Great Hair!

Christina

“I come back [from Europe] 1-2 times a year to see friends and family and because I love the way Katie colors my hair! It’s important because you have to be able to trust your stylist. They have to understand what you want and what will look good and what will or won’t work with your individual hair.”

Personal

Machaela M.

I have worked with each stylist and they all do a great job on my hair. They have all taken the time to get to know me personally. I have even stopped in for a quick style that looks sleek and functional before I have to shoot an event and they always work to help me out in a pinch.

Convenient

Vivian K.

“I love how convenient it is to get to Beauty Operators and I love the stylists. I have had Jodi and Loretta both style my hair and always love my experience. The Salon is vibrant, welcoming and feels so natural with all the neutral colors and green plants. I have also taken home a few of the Kevin Murphy products at the suggestion of Alice and love them! Will keep coming back.”
