our story
Hi, my name is Helen Love, and I’m the owner of Ecru Salon in North Carolina.
My journey in the beauty industry began over 20 years ago in Ukraine, where I started working in a small local salon. From the very beginning, I knew this was more than just a job — it was my passion and my purpose. I’ve dedicated my entire life to growing as a stylist, learning new techniques, and delivering the best possible results to my clients.
Over the years, I mastered various methods of hair extensions, including fusion keratin, weft, and tape-in, as well as professional coloring techniques. I work exclusively with high-quality Slavic hair from a trusted Ukrainian factory to ensure natural-looking, long-lasting results.
Today, I’m proud to say that I’ve built the salon of my dreams here in the United States — Ecru Salon. Every detail in this space reflects my heart, soul, and years of dedication. It’s more than a business — it’s a place where women can feel beautiful, confident, and truly seen.
I also love sharing my experience through education, helping other stylists grow and succeed.
I’d be honored to welcome you to my salon and be part of your hair journey.
