owners of Halo Salon
Hi! We're Brittni and Tracy
Brittni Culpepper and Tracy Leddon are the founders and owners of Halo Salon & Blowout Bar. The first location, located in Midtown in Auburn, Alabama, opened in January 2022. The two founded Halo from their inspiration of bringing the city’s first-ever, full service salon and blowout bar. Tracy and Brittni did not want to stop there, however. They had dreams of expanding Halo, bringing the light to more places than just Auburn. Tracy and Brittni share a love for the beach, and the pair knew just the right place to take Halo to next.
After laying eyes on an empty building in Watersound Town Center, Tracy and Brittni knew then it was place they had been dreaming of. They signed the lease in June of 2023, and the buildout began in February of 2024. Hand-picking every special touch for the salon, Brittni and Tracy worked tirelessly to bring their beautiful visions to life. Halo Salon 30A officially opened its doors July 2024.
Brittni brings over 15 years of experience to the industry, working in salons in both Alabama and Georgia. She always had the dream of someday owning her own salon. Tracy has spent much of her life in the corporate world, managing many teams and business ventures. The two really make the perfect team, as Tracy calls the pair "The Beauty and The Business."
