To own and operate a successful business anywhere in America it takes planning, courage and strength. Vonetta does it all...in style!

In the Capital city of Washington, DC, one must keep up their appearance. To a woman, most importantly must make the perennial statement that should carry the day. In this instance we will focus on "Signature Image Salon", an Aveda Concept Salon, located along the "U"st. corridor at 1517 "U"st. NW, 2nd Floor. There are many services available at the salon that one might expect and even more...a driver pickup, image consulting, personal shopping, even Total Image Makeovers.

Vonetta Dumas is the CEO/Image Management Specialist of the salon and has a wide range of clients who care very much about their personal style and image that they reflect in their distinguished circles. Many of them are diplomats, high profile executives and people who just wish to look great.

It takes a special personality and character to orchestrate an operation like the Signature Image Salon and Vonetta is the right person to make it happen. Her philosophy is to "radiate from the inside", and "creating a look to build their confidence to represent her guests best image.
