it all started as a daydream

A letter

from the founder

When I opened August & Omi, I knew there was a space missing in this industry. Something that bridged the gap between the way things had always been done and the way I knew they could be.

I wanted something that felt intentional, for stylists and guests alike. A feeling of warmth the moment you walked in. A safe space to share dreams, and to hold each other accountable to them. The world can be a hard place and I wanted this to be somewhere that felt good to be- for my team and for the people who sat in our chairs. A place to connect. A place to let your hair down. A place to feel proud of the career you'd chosen.

As a dreamer myself, I've always wanted to help others discover what they're truly capable of. As our team grew, I watched each person step into their strengths, and our business evolved right alongside them. What began as a salon grew into a thriving Event Styling Team, and our shared love of vintage inspired the creation of &brand—an extension of our values, our creativity, and our community.

Welcome. I'm so glad you're here.

— Sara Wright

the story

behind the name

August & Omi are named after the daughters the founder never had — born instead out of the beautiful chaos of raising three boys. August is minimal. Omi is a maximalist. Two very different spirits, each with a beauty entirely her own, living side by side in the same space. That same duality inspired the vision for &Brand: beauty in opposites, and a place where both can belong.
