A Little Bit About Us

Our Fearless Leader,
Carrie Mueller

Carrie was born to be a hairdresser and an owner of a salon. Growing up, her father owned and worked at his barbershop. Some of her best childhood memories were hours spent inside those walls.

When she was just a young teen, Carrie worked at a beauty salon and her passion for hair was ignited. After high school, she attended Pivot Point Academy. From there, she began her career at salons and took over the family haircuts, relieving her father of his duties (to the delight of her mom and sisters!)

Carrie founded Carolyn Lorraine Salon over 25 years ago. She attributes her success partly to her high level of skill and business acumen, but mostly to her insistence that all staff and clients feel like family.
