For years, Scott Talbot Salonspa has been providing individuals across Northeast Ohio and beyond with a variety of beauty services to help them feel good about themselves. However, Scott Talbot Salonspa wasn’t always known by the name they are today. Before this local hair salon and day spa was the company it is now, it was Gary’s Place.
Gary’s Place was first established by Gary Gerber in 1975 as a plant shop with two salon chairs. From those two chairs, Gary’s Place soon grew to have locations in Green, Canton, and Jackson Township where individuals could invest in a wide array of quality beauty services. In 1999, Gary’s Place was purchased by current owners Shelly and Jeff who first started with the company fresh out of beauty school.
