Tara Gowen - Owner/Master Stylist

Hello, beautiful! I’m Tara—the proud owner of Coastal Glo and your soon-to-be favorite stylist. With over 17 years of experience (and licenses in five states, courtesy of my military-life travels), I’ve picked up a few tricks of the trade… okay, maybe more than a few. I specialize in color corrections and all things blonding—basically, turning "oops" into "oh wow!" I’ve also got a soft spot (and a solid skill set) for fragile or thinning hair, and I don’t leave the guys out either—men’s cuts are totally in my wheelhouse. I believe hair should be fun, fabulous, and tailored just for you. Let’s make those dream hair goals a reality!
Billy Gowen - CoOwner/Master Trainer

Hello! I'm Billy -- a certified personal trainer with a Masters Degree in Exercise Science and dozens of certifications in Flexology, Nutrition, and overall wellness. My passion is helping people move better, feel stronger and younger, and live healthier through a balance of flexibility, mindful movement, and simple, sustainable nutrition. At Coastal Glo Salon & Spa, I bring a holistic approach to health in a relaxing environment. I focus not just on how your body looks, but how it feels & functions. My goal is to help you unlock your full potential, reduce tension, recharge, and ready to glo from the inside out. From assisted stretching to nutritional advice and workout programming I am your go to guy.
Teresa - Advanced Stylist

​Hi, I'm Teresa – lived-in color and blonding specialist. Creating natural, effortless beauty is my passion. I specialize in lived-in color and dimensional blonding, and I love helping my clients achieve hair that looks just as gorgeous weeks (or even months) later as it did the day they left the salon. My approach is all about enhancing your natural beauty and making sure your hair fits your lifestyle. To me, it’s not just about pretty hair—it’s about building trust, offering honest guidance, and helping you feel confident every step of the way. I can’t wait to meet you and help you love your hair again.​​​​

Sa'Nia - Associate in training

Hi, I'm Sania! I am so excited to jump-start my career as a licensed barber this May at Coastal Glo Salon & Spa. My passion for the beauty industry drives everything I do. While I specialize in precision clipper work, shear cutting, and custom color, my goal is always the same which is helping you achieve healthy, beautiful, and manageable hair. To me, a great cut is about more than just looking good-it's about walking out of the salon feeling like the very best version of yourself. I can't wait to welcome you to my chair and bring your vision to life!

As a proud LowCountry native, I strive to bring southern warmth, precision, and passion to every service I provide. I specialize in full-body waxing and I absolutely love the confidence it gives my clients- there’s nothing more rewarding than helping someone feel smooth, empowered, and ready to shine.
My passion for skincare runs just as deep. From soothing facials to customized treatment plans, my goal is to help every client understand their skin and achieve long-lasting, healthy results. I believe in creating a comfortable, welcoming space where you can relax, glow, and feel like the best version of yourself.
