Holiday Salon & Bathhouse

Although I was born right here in Tennessee, I spent most of my years in Oregon as a hairstylist and part-time garment maker. Surrounded by natural hot springs and urban bathhouses, I came to depend on the sweat and steam for my physical and mental well-being. After moving to Nashville in 2012 and discovering that a comfortable, affordable urban bath wasn’t available here I knew I had to fill that void myself. Starting small, I opened Holiday, a three chair salon in North Nashville with the dreamiest team I could imagine. That venture facilitated and inspired the next few years of researching, planning, and growing. The plotting (and honestly borderline lunacy as a result) all paid off when I met Bob Butler of Profile + Principle in 2018. He helped me put my visions on paper and build my dream space. Together we created not only a beautiful space but one that draws you in and makes you never want to leave. Whether you’re here for a trim and highlights, a Gua Sha facial, a hot stone massage or just to lounge in our “one of a kind” Finnish inspired bathhouse, you are sure to leave feeling pampered. See you soon!-Mel Established in 2015.
