Michelle Tanner, Founder and Owner of The Place Hair Salon and The Place Day Spa

Michelle Tanner

Owner

I always thought my strongest skill, my superpower, was creating beautiful hair. I never imagined there would be a day when I would not be a hairdresser. But when I became a salon owner, everything started to shift. I now know I was born to be a leader.

Watching my team grow and develop truly sets my soul on fire. I am originally from Australia which helps to explain my design aesthetic, open personality and of course my love for a good chinwag.

Today, my work extends far beyond the salon floor. I lead teams, teach on stages, host my own podcast, and create online leadership programs to help other salon owners build strong, happy teams. Inside my salons, I lead the way I always wished I had been led. With honesty, support, and high standards. That is what The Place is built on.
