on Market Street

By Alexandra Duemer | Community Council

Rumors Salon, Scottsdale industryleader since 1998, recently opened a second location in DC Ranch.

“It’s something we’ve been thinking about for a long time. At our Seville salon in McCormick Ranch, we are at capacity. It just felt like the right time to expand, and DC Ranch is the right fit,” says owner Julie Schumacher.

Rumors at DC Ranch is a full-service hair salon that provides precision cuts, color, styling, perms and Keratin treatments. As an exclusive Bellami Salon, Rumors provides customers with state-of-the-art Bellami hair extensions and high-end haircare lines such as Oribe, UNITE, Kevin. Murphy and Roots Professional products.

Brandy specializes in wearable curls, glamorous blowdrys and classic bobs. She has extensive training with curly hair.

Pavlina trained with Frédéric Fekkai at his studio in New York City. She specializes in color and short, edgy styles. She is also trained in special event hair.

Tay loves to help clients achieve their “blonde goals.” She is knowledgeable in color corrections and is also a Bellami Certified Stylist.

Cayla specializes in hair extensions and transformative hair color. She enjoys giving her clients a whole new look.

The DC Ranch location includes an education center area for Rumors stylists to receive regular training and advanced education. They also have an apprentice learning program offered through the salon for recent cosmetology graduates. In an industry where most stylists change salons every two years, Rumors is proud to have eight stylists who have been with them for over 10 years.

To keep some familiarity between both locations, the new salon on Market Street features similar flooring, modern materials and use of a blue accent color. The salon is open Monday through Saturday.
