The VANITY Standard
Built on the core principles of privacy and tranquility, VANITY has become a premier destination for curly hair and locs, drawing a loyal clientele from across New York, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut every month.
​
In 2020, the brand expanded its footprint by opening two additional studios in Suffolk County, Long Island. These locations specialized in expert loc maintenance and laser hair removal specifically optimized for melanin-rich and dark skin tones.
​
VANITY’s commitment to excellence and professional standards has earned consistent media recognition. In January 2023, Bizticles.com named the salon an industry leader, and by October of that same year, VANITY’s foundational expertise was tapped for The Zoe Report’s definitive feature on Microlocks.
Recognizing a critical need for structural change within the industry, VANITY expanded its mission in 2024 by launching specialized mentorship and coaching programs for aspiring and established stylists.
