Shannon opened Shampooch 13 years ago, and it has absolutely flourished over the years to what it is now.

It was so inspirational to listen to Shannon's story, starting a business at such a young age and navigating all the challenges that came with that to now operating a large scale salon. Please listen, follow Shampooch & HYPE UP!
