The Story Behind
The Cutting Gallery
The Cutting Gallery’s journey began not with flashy equipment or a glamorous storefront, but with a pair of hands, a whole lot of heart, and the desire to make people feel beautiful. Ann Mary Hendricks , the visionary behind the salon, had worked in the hair industry for someone else until that business closed. Rather than walking away, she leaned in—determined to continue serving her community with care and creativity.
Starting with house visits, Ann Mary Hendricks carried her talent door-to-door, bringing hair services to women in their own homes. Her mobile hustle didn’t go unnoticed. When a local mine advertised business spaces to uplift local entrepreneurs, Ann took a leap. She applied, succeeded, and officially opened her salon in a retail center with the support of the mining company. The Cutting Gallery was born—not just as a salon, but as a statement: resilience is beautiful.
Our Mission
& Vision
At The Cutting Gallery, beauty is more than skin deep. It’s about helping people step into the world feeling confident and cared for.
Mission: To offer high-quality, professional hair care services that bring convenience and confidence to working individuals, while creating employment and uplifting the community.
Vision: To grow into a household name in beauty services, expanding across neighboring cities and continually evolving to meet client needs through personalized, trend-driven services.
Understanding
Our core customers are women and men working long shifts in the mining sector and nearby businesses. They need efficient, quality services that don’t require extensive travel or planning. We understand that looking good isn’t just about vanity—it boosts confidence, morale, and self-worth.
The Problem We Solve: We make hair care convenient, accessible, and high-quality, especially for clients with tight schedules and limited beauty service options in the area.

Achievements &
Milestones
While we’re still growing, The Cutting Gallery has already achieved something remarkable: trust. Every new client who walks in and returns, every referral made, and every smile of satisfaction is a milestone for us.
Tisa herself says her greatest achievement is the personal growth and confidence she has gained as a businesswoman. That inner transformation fuels the salon’s outward success.
Leadership

Giving Back To

Looking ahead, future plans focus on job creation and mentorship for young stylists and salon assistants, along with skill development workshops designed for aspiring entrepreneurs. There is also a strong commitment to fostering community-driven projects that promote self-care and mental wellness through the art of beauty.
At The Cutting Gallery, we believe in making people look good—but more importantly, we want them to feel good, inside and out.
