Our Story
Meet the Team
We're two cousins with a shared passion and over 26 years of experience behind the chair. After years of helping clients look and feel their best, we dreamed of something more — a space where creativity could thrive and beauty professionals could grow both personally and professionally.
Sara Smith
Hi, I'm Sara Smith — co-founder of Wild Oak Salon Suites and a hairstylist with 26 years behind the chair. I've built a career grounded in creativity, passion, and dedication to my craft.
Outside of work, I find so much joy in spending time with my family. I'm married to a wonderful husband who supports me in all my big ideas. We have three amazing kids, and I'm lucky to be a grandma to one sweet grandson. I love staying active, running, and working in my flowerbeds — my favorite place to create beauty in a different way.
Allysha Kennedy
Hi, I'm Allysha Kennedy, co-founder of Wild Oak Salon Suites! I'm married to an amazing husband, mom to two incredible grown sons, and lucky enough to have the best daughter-in-law (don't tell my boys I said that — they'll never let me live it down!).
I've been a hairstylist for 26 years and still love it just as much as when I started. My passion is in color and extensions, and I'm constantly learning and refining my skills — especially when it comes to hair extensions. I've trained in multiple methods so I can customize each look to fit my clients' unique needs. And if there's something I don't know, you can bet I'll learn it!
When I'm not behind the chair, you'll find me outdoors — camping, riding side-by-sides, or swimming. I also love art and always have a handful of creative projects in the works (just ask my husband... they're everywhere). Oh, and I share my home with two of the best Labrador retrievers in the world — but don't worry, I'm not a crazy dog mom... well, maybe just a little.
