KORAL KINSLEY SHANK OWNER

Peggy Kinsley had a dream to open a small hair salon in Uniontown in 1981. After her untimely death in 1995, her daughter Koral, who was working at the Shear Shop, took over as the owner. Since then, Koral has honored her Mother's dream by expanding both the building and the services to turn the Shear Shop into a Full Service Salon serving the local community.

Koral has over 25 years experience.

"There has never been a time when I have been more happy with the staff we have at the Shear Shop. All of our staff are professionals but each and every one has a unique ability to relate and connect with any client they service. They are all great at what they do!"

"Our customers are Family. I love doing clients that used to come to my Mom and those clients who have been coming to me over the last 20 years. My biggest thrill however, is still getting a new client, and welcoming them to the Shear Shop Family.

"Owning a small business is not easy. However, I never think of all of the work that is involved. I think of all of my clients and my staff.

My hope is that is some way, I have, and will continue to have made a difference in someone's life ...
