Luxury Salon 222 opens on Main Street

BROCKTON — A luxury hair and nail salon tucked away on Main Street in downtown Brockton is giving the community a taste of style and class.

Once inside, the atmosphere feels like a pink utopia with flowers and fluorescent lighting that makes you feel at home.

“So many customers have told us that downtown needed something like this, and we wanted to add something beautiful and boujee to Brockton, where women can come in and feel welcome and empowered, while also having an affordable price,” said Mead owner Michael Cappiello.

Salon 222, located at 222 Main St., is a full-service salon offering washes and blow-drying, all types of braids, chemical treatments and color services. The salon opened in March and features four hair and nail chairs to accommodate a wide range of clients.

“We gutted the salon and built our dreams for the community. We wanted to create change and make people feel good when they leave our chair,” said co-owner Jenifer Andrade.

The business partners said they always wanted to improve their city, but they didn’t know how. Together they brainstormed ideas and implemented them.

“Our end goal is to grow our salon and invest in our future as we open more locations, showcase Jen’s Professions and launch her product line,” said Cappiello.

Cappiello, who has a background in real estate, showed Andrade rental properties to start her nail business. While watching together, they developed a business relationship and wanted to continue the journey together.

An African saying goes: “If you want to go fast, you walk alone; if you want to go far, you walk together.” That’s exactly what they did. Andrade and Cappiello joined forces and built a partnership of respect and love for the beauty industry.

Together it was a match ‘made in Heaven’, they said.

Andrade is a licensed beautician who dreamed of one day opening her own business. She specializes in custom designs, Gel-X nail extensions, nail enhancements, spa pedicures and acrylic nails. Andrade can bring to life any unique design you can imagine.

For the young nail technician, Andrade said art is a way of life and a skill she is naturally gifted with, and she hopes to continue expanding her creativity.

“When you get your nails done here, it’s a spa experience, it’s relaxing, it’s a different experience than other salons in Brockton, and everyone should come in and experience that,” Andrade said.

Salon 222 is currently hiring experienced and recognized cosmologists. For more information, email [email protected] or visit the business at 222 Main St.
