To buy the perfect gift, you have to be something of a mind-reader. Figure out what item or service your loved one secretly desires, but would never buy for themselves. It’s a tall order, and when that gift is intended for the woman who gave you life? Let’s just say we understand why so many people procrastinate. Fortunately, here at Juut Salon Spa, we’ve put together a shopping guide of gifts that any mom would love. How do we know? Well, we surveyed two of our best stylists who also are mothers, Tara Rau Fogerty and Kelly Pavek, to…

The 1980s was the decade of “me.” People were focused on themselves, and materialism ran rampant. It was during this decade of decadence that Juut Salon Spa owner David Wagner decided he wanted to run his business differently. “I had this inkling that I wanted to be part of something not just cool, hip and fashionable, but also something with meaning and purpose,” he says. In 1986, Wagner had a client who decided not to commit suicide after experiencing his kindness and attention in the salon, which further propelled his desire to contribute to the world in a more…
Marisa Bean, master stylist and educator, is also the salon director at Juut’s Roseville and Uptown Minneapolis salon locations. Bean has been with the company for 18 years, and has spent much of it training new stylists.

Back in 1991, Molly Haeg was starting out at Juut as a young stylist eager to reach her professional goals. One of those goals was to become a master stylist. “When I told David Wagner I wanted to be a master stylist, he asked me, ‘What does a stylist offering a $500 haircut look like? What does your station look like? The salon? Your hair and makeup?’” Haeg says. Wagner then told Haeg not to wait until she achieved master stylist status—she needed to act like she was already there. This advice had a powerful impact on her and…
Kindiss Stiller, director of Juut’s Edina location and colorist, is amazed at some of the things her clients have told her in the past 23 years. “You never know what people are going through,” she says. “I have had guests tell me some horrible things nobody else in their life knows—stories and secrets they don’t share with anyone else because they don’t feel safe.” Stiller says Juut guests have a lot of trust in their service professionals and that’s why they share. “We have a gift of being in close range, so they tell us when they’re pregnant, or…
