This February, Cinched Extensions & Color Salon at 3500 Bragg Blvd., is putting a fresh, feel-good spin on Valentine’s season with a Galentine’s Day celebration focused on friendship, self-love and connection. Located in Fayetteville, Cinched has become known for more than just beautiful hair; it’s a place where women feel welcomed, supported and confident the moment they walk through the door.“Life moves fast, and we don’t always take the time to appreciate ourselves or the people around us,” said Thao Lopes of Cinched. The Galentine’s Day gathering is meant to slow things down and bring people together in a space that already represents beauty and self-care. This message feels especially relevant in today’s climate.
“Galentine’s Day felt like the perfect excuse to bring women together in a space that represents beauty and self-care,” Lopes shared. Events like Galentine’s Day help strengthen community relationships and help women create a real connection with their stylist. The employees of Cinched Extensions & Color Salon love creating moments and styles for people where they are able to relax, laugh and be happy together.
The vibe is exactly what you’d expect from a girls’ day out. “Fun, girly, welcoming, and a little bougee in the best way,” the team explained. Think of it as spending the afternoon with your favorite people, laughing, meeting new friends, and feeling good about yourself.
Guests can expect a full, immersive experience with Valentine-themed drinks, a DIY charm bar, mason jar decorating, raffles, and goodie bags. Local vendors will also be on site offering Botox, tattoos, and permanent jewelry.
“It’s interactive and meant to feel like a full experience,” the Cinched team said.
Unlike many salon events, this one isn’t focused on selling services.
“It’s not about pushing anything,” Lopes explained. “It’s about creating an experience that feels fun, relaxed, and memorable.”
The goal is for women to feel comfortable, enjoy themselves, and connect both with their stylists and with each other.
And this Galentine’s Day is just the beginning. Events like this are part of Cinched’s bigger vision of creating community. These gatherings bring people together, create memories, and often turn clients into friends. That philosophy runs through everything Cinched does. The salon was built on “a love for beauty, confidence, and helping women feel like themselves again,” a mission shaped by their work with women dealing with thinning hair and hair loss and the impact it has on self-esteem.
“We focus on luxury results without compromising hair health or quality,” they said. “Everything we do is education-based, customized, and intentional.”
Cinched specializes in Invisible Bead Extensions® and custom color, and their reputation for maintaining hair integrity has attracted clients from across the state and even from out of state. Inside the salon, that same care and attention to detail shows up in the atmosphere.
“Our environment is supportive, welcoming, and elevated without feeling intimidating,” said Lopes. “We believe luxury should feel comfortable, personal, and approachable.”
More events are already in the works.
“This is definitely not our last,” Lopes said. The team is also looking ahead to celebrating their one-year anniversary at the end of April. Beyond that, Cinched plans to keep expanding its education and outreach around thinning hair and hair loss, offering more awareness, support, and solutions so women don’t feel alone in that journey.
For anyone thinking about attending Galentine’s Day, the invitation is simple: “Come have fun, meet new people, and treat yourself.” To learn more or grab tickets, follow @cinchedextensionsalon on Instagram, visit them on Facebook, or contact Cinched Extensions & Color Salon directly at 910-964-9369.
