 Deborah Linn
Founder & Hairstylist
What is your background?
I was inspired to go to cosmetology school by my hair stylist in Champaign, IL and I wanted to work with her. In 1980, I graduated from Beaumont Beauty School in Champaign, IL.
After school, I went to work for Hair Performers. Hair Performers salons were originally located in Chicago and outlying suburbs, however, this one was the first franchise salon of John Amico Inc. to be located outside the Chicago area. 2 years later I became a Hair Performers trainer and I began traveling to Chicago on the weekends to educate hairstylists who were employed by H.P. salons. There were over 130 H.P. salons located in the Chicago area.
From their I landed a great opportunity and became a platform artist for HP at Chicago Chicago and the Midwest Beauty Show. I moved to San Antonio, TX and worked for the Redken Distributor Association as a sales rep. Next, I became a trainer with Redken Deco Color for 2 years and then began working on my own with Sonny Richardson.
I am the mother of 3 wonderful children, the youngest is now 18. I had a vision of the perfect salon and spa and what it looked like. In May 2006, the opportunity arrived which allowed me to open a salon and spa in my vision; I invite you to experience Reneaux!

Why did I choose my profession?
