The Karma Salon and Boutique, located at 1545 Hwy 108 E. Columbus, is a locally-owned and operated salon and boutique serving clientele in Polk County and the surrounding area.

“Our business was founded with the mission of providing our community with a comfortable, relaxing and first-class salon and cosmetics service with boutique attire and accessory offerings,” said owner Brooke Ford. “We are truly blessed by and grateful for the support of our large customer-base that has allowed Karma Salon and Boutique to grow and thrive.”

Ford said the business is excited to have extended its lease for another year, despite third-party comments saying the business might have to move.

“This has lead to a lot of calls and confusion from our loyal customers worried about the status of our business,” Ford said. “Despite what you may have heard, Karma Salon and Boutique does not have plans to move from our present location, and we have recently renewed the lease on our space.”

Karma Salon is open Tuesday through Friday from 9 a.m.-6 p.m. and Saturday 9 a.m.-4 p.m. The salon can be reached at 828-894-0613.
