The salon has been a local favorite for a long time. Genesis Beauty Salon, located off Timuquana Road on Jacksonville’s Westside, was started by Chris Fluitt in 1999.
When I got an email from the owner of“I just decided I wanted to step out and do something on my own and work for myself,” Chris Fluitt, the owner of Genesis Beauty Salon, said.
“When I met Chris, I knew I met a sister,” Johnson said. “It’s just a family atmosphere when you come in here. Chris makes you feel welcome, and that’s why we stay.”It’s a party every day at the salon, but that wasn’t always the case. “I felt like I didn’t want to work,” Fluitt said. “But I knew I needed to go to work — I knew my customers would come when I felt like I wanted to work. I had four harsh chemo treatments; I was really down, but they stood right there with me when they could have gone anywhere else, and they stood there with me when I wanted to work.”
Christine Smith, the General Manager of the laundromat beside the salon, said she’s also become very close to Chris and gets her hair done often. She loves walking into the salon to uplift her day.
