Sara Fry

About Me ✨ Hi there, and welcome! My name is Sara Fry, and I’m the proud stylist and owner of The Velvet Chair Salon. I’m so glad you’ve found your way here, because I believe that a salon is more than just a place to get your hair or nails done—it’s a place to relax, recharge, and walk out feeling like your most confident self. When I opened The Velvet Chair Salon, my dream was simple: to create a space that was welcoming and warm, where every client could feel at home, but also fun and a little different from the rest. I wanted to design a salon where laughter is just as important as the services, where every client is treated like a friend, and where beauty feels approachable, cozy, and personalized. For me, being behind the chair isn’t just about hair. It’s about creating connections, boosting confidence, and offering a moment of calm (or fun!) in someone’s busy day. Let’s Connect 💕 So, whether you’re ready for a complete transformation, a touch-up, or just a little pampering time, I’d love to welcome you into The Velvet Chair Salon. Come in, settle into the cozy vibe, and let’s create some beauty together. You can book an appointment, send me a message, or just stop by to say hello—I’d love to meet you!

Heidi Vadakin

Meet Heidi Heidi is currently working through the Indiana Apprenticeship Program on her way to earning her cosmetology license — and she’s all in. She’s passionate about mastering her craft, building confidence behind the chair, and creating hair that makes you feel like your best self. By day, she works full-time at a dentist office, where precision and attention to detail are everything. That same focus carries over into her salon work — she’s meticulous, patient, and genuinely cares about getting it right. Outside of work, Heidi is married to her husband Gary and spends her free time with their two pups, Hank and Bo — who absolutely run the house. She’s driven, dedicated, and just getting started. Get in her chair now and grow with her — you’ll be glad you did. ✨
