Hi, I'm Shannon. I grew up in Lake Placid. Christ is the center of my life and leads me through my life challenges. I became a cosmetologist over 15 years ago. I love what I do and strive to do the best I can for my clients. I have continued to educate myself in the field of cosmetology. I love this great group of stylists. We strive together to give each client a positive experience and great beauty services. I married Brad Stuteville in 2007. We enjoy going out on the water with our kayaks and we love going to the mountains of North Carolina. We have a Doby that's a big baby named Cane.
Samantha Twiggs
Stylist/Nail Tech/Color Specialist
I am 11 years into my business as a Cosmetologist. I am a Tennessee girl that moved here in 2005. I am a born-again Christian and married my wonderful husband Dustin in 2009. I am a mother to three precious children. In our free time, we enjoy camping and making precious memories with our children & family.
In this industry, we can face many hair challenges but I am always up for a good challenge. My goal is to make you feel like a Queen or a King by the time you leave.
I love my job, co-workers, and clients. Coming to work is not only rewarding in Cosmetology but we also worship here which is so rewarding.

I started my career in 1976. I am married and we have two boys. My husband is a cattle rancher. MY Love for the Lord led me to become involved in a cowboy church ministry. I love the business because I enjoy people and their wisdom and the Life stories they offer. I could write a book of the stories and lives of my clients thought out the years. I owned my own salon for over 20 years until a tornado took the roof. Been here at Above and Beyond for 12+ years. I've seen this business change throughout the years and continue to grow and educate myself. Thank you to all my clients. Too many to count.
