Jerry Brown’s La Mirage is “The Best”! 8 '08

Jerry Brown and Bruce were close friends in high school.  Both men were reluctant to see the reunion end, or to say farewell, so when Jerry invited us to come over on Monday morning to see his business, Bruce jumped at the chance.   Jerry owns the ‘La Mirage’ salon in Marshfield, MA.    If I lived anywhere within driving distance, I would definitely be a client. Not only do his customers look chic and gorgeous (I met several), but visiting his shop goes waaaaaaaay beyond the normal spa/salon experience.   It is downright fun.  For one thing every room is highly creative and uniquely decorated.  Each room is interesting, cheerful, and fun, so just being there raises your spirit.  Just as important, walking into each of the different rooms evokes a different feeling.  You can come in for a hair cut and  leave feeling you are a changed person just because of the room you chose.  His clients also have an opportunity for a sense of personal involvement in the atmosphere that I have not found in any other salon I have ever visited.  Steve has turned the back of his property into a colorful small communal garden where his clients and employees can plant, grow, and harvest fresh herbs, vegetables and cut flowers.  He even has a documented resident friendly ghost who haunts the building (how cool is that!).
