Kinara’s Grace
Located just three buildings down from the barber, Kinara's Grace is the talk of the town. Or at least, where most talking happens. Gossip seemingly more abundant than makeup brushes here, this shop is where all manner of folk come to get their hair, nails, and makeup done. When stepping into the building one is hit with the smell of nail polish, shampoo, and perfumes. It's atmosphere would likely be considered 'sophisticated' if not for the hustle and bustle of the customers who often come just to share their life stories with friends and strangers.
A service desk painted black and with metal accents juts out from the wall to greet customers. To the left of the service desk is a large waiting area with four couches all facing each other and a short table in the middle.
Most clients end up leaving their purses or bags upon the table while mingling, though some prefer to walk to the refreshments counter and procure some tea, coffee, water, or hot chocolate while waiting. Once ushered into the space, the main room is lined with 4 chairs facing a vanity space for makeup, and hair cuts and styles. On the wall opposite of hair styling are four tables situated for nail art, and two lounge chairs for pedicures. To the back of the space across the long room is a bathroom and a storage area for employees. Generally, the space is rather modest in size but it's eccentric customers make up for that with scandalous rumors. One is sure to pick up on the latest gossip just by listening in.
Ceville Miller
"Owner"
Named after his late wife, Ceville refused to change the name of his shop after her untimely passing. Previously they had run the salon together and could not bear to give it up once he was without her. It's been four years since then, and Ceville is finally out of his depressed state and back to being his fabulous, creative self. With an exquisite eye for detail, "Sevvy" employs 4 permanent artists as well as leases space to 6 rotating freelancers who come by to rent a chair or counter for their own clients as needed. There is often never a dull day or free space available, but customers don't mind the longer wait. Half of them even come by just to flirt with him, which he tends to entertain for a few seconds before dismissing their compliments and returning to his work. Outside of the salon, he can be found in his apartment across the river or down at the Red Dragon listening to whoever is brave enough to perform that night.
Should any makeup, hair, or nail artists be interested in employment or leasing a chair from Ceville, they need only ask. And rumor has it offering him watermelon candy helps.
