Welcoming, talented, and famously good at listening — Laura Steele has been styling since 2011, first in Mead, Colorado and now on Colonel's Island.
The Back Porch Salon is exactly what it sounds like — a charming studio tucked into a white farmhouse on Colonel's Island, where the azaleas bloom outside the window and every appointment is one-on-one. Laura opened the salon in Mead, Colorado in 2011, and when she moved to Midway, Georgia, the salon came with her — same chair, same warm welcome, new porch. She built it around a simple idea: your special time. She listens first, offers her honest professional advice, and sends you home with hair you love.
From precision cuts and dimensional color to formal styles for the big day, Laura pairs small-town warmth with salon-grade skill — and she's proud to specialize in Surface products, chosen for the health of your hair.
