Salon Elysian

Jill Benik

I would like to personally welcome you to Salon Elysian. By way of introduction, I am Jill Benik, and I am so pleased to be able to serve you here. By definition, Elysian is of Greek origin and means: beautiful or creative, divinely inspired, peaceful and perfect. By definition, Elysian is my wish for you. Behind Elysian is the name of our L.L.C. I chose Beauty Full You, L.L.C. Please note there are three words: beauty, full, and you. These two names, Salon Elysian and Beauty Full You, L.L.C, symbolize the ideology, the very foundation on which the salon was built. Spending 30 plus years serving in the Brandon community, and building life-long relationships with those I have the pleasure to serve, allowed me to recognize I was onto something special. I had the idea that a salon based on these principles would be able to serve even more people from the community and would create, not just a following, but a community - a family. It became clear during the hiring process that this could become a reality, as a beautiful staff of talented individuals was put in my path. One by one they were put into place. They are smart, lovely, and talented and they have formed a family all their own and in their own way. While Salon Elysian has put together a well skilled staff capable of meeting your external beauty needs, we realize that real beauty comes from within and shines outward. That being said, we will work diligently to know you, to meet your needs according to your lifestyle, and your beauty that shines through. We hope that during your time here you feel at peace. We hope you recognize the divine inspiration in us. We hope you feel beautiful from the inside out as you leave us and until you return again. From the bottom of my heart I thank you for trusting us to serve you.

Chloe

Hello! My name is Chloe. I have a heart for service and a passion for helping others. Grounded in my Christian faith, I strive to create a welcoming and loving environment where all clients feel valued and appreciated. I graduated cosmetology school in 2022, although I have had an interest in the industry since I was a young girl. Luckily I have had the opportunity to work with and learn from highly experienced stylists, one being the owner of Salon Elysian Jill Benik. I began working at Salon Elysian in 2020. My goal is to enhance the natural beauty of my clients or give them a whole new look to help them feel beautiful and confident. I have worked with Goldwell color since I started doing hair. I have continued my education after graduation by attending special educational events that include the latest color trends as well as cutting and styling classes. I really enjoy blonding services and my #1 favorite is Balayage. I can’t wait to collaborate with you on a look that truly reflects your personality and makes you feel your best.
