Sincerely,
Kelly Marshall
Owner/Stylist

Thank you for your support over the years! I have closed my salon permanently due to my health. Please continue to support Dawn as she is staying at the Shear Dimensions Salon location. Also support Cathy Brewer Seamstress at the same location.

THIS IS A LONG READ BUT I PROMISE ITS WELL WORTH The READ!!
Hello to everyone! This is Kelly Marshall owner of Shear Dimensions Salon & Tanning in Alexandria,Indiana...
I have officially retired from the Salon business after 32 wonderful yrs In the Beauty industry. I have been able to accomplish many things over my career, and this Salon was one of them! I want to thank my husband HOWARD MARSHALL for helping me to do that! He came here 16 yrs ago from North Carolina to make Alexandria his home, knowing no one but me! He took many chances on me, and investing in this Salon, to be with me, and to build the Salon. He told me he had a little cushion put back, and if I could put the salon together with that amount, he would help me.. SO We built the Salon on $5,000 & a dream. MY DREAM! We worked many many HARD & TIRING hours to make the Salon what it is to this day. I have to give Howard most of the credit though! I told him how I wanted things, paint colors, etc.. and over the years he has done a lot of painting, and laying that beautiful floor tile, putting mirrors up, taking mirrors down & moving them around, buying things along the way to add to it to make it better & better. Not only has the Salon gotten better & better, but We have too! We have grown as People, we have grown in our business sense, our love has grown for each other and we ended up in the best marriage of our lives! We both have grown spiritually, and we know that God has blessed us in so many ways. He has protected us and the business over the years. We’ve experienced ups and downs. We have learned a lot about people. We have learned how hateful and hurtful people can be, and we have seen how wonderful, uplifting and supportive, compassionate and understanding they can be. Yes, I have seen a lot and been through a lot with this Salon, but I would not change a thing because it has taught me so much about myself, life and how good and faithful God truly is!
I want to say a HUGE THANK YOU to all of the beautiful people that God has Graced us with. Coming through our door! Without you we would be nothing! Thank you for being supportive of our business. I want to say a HUGE THANK YOU to Emily (Baker) Ruiz & Dawn (Lineberry) Moree for having my back (in a good way).. you two are the biscuit & gravy to my plate! (I’ll let you guys figure out which one is which.. lol)
I appreciate you more than you know! I could ask you to anything at any time and I never heard you complain.. (at least not to me.. lol)... I could talk to either of you at any time about any thing and could always count on you to keep private conversations private. We were a great team.. kinda like the 3 musketeers. Well, Probably more like Ethyl Mertz & Lucille Ball & Carol Burnett LoL.... More like Larry Moe & Curly.. haha haha...just kidding.. (ok not really😂).. But seriously, I LOVE YOU GUYS SO MUCH!!
I will miss doing hair. It has NEVER seemed like work. It was my passion in life and it was an absolute pleasure to meet and do all of my clients over the past 32 years! I have watched a lot of clients grow up and start having babies of their own, I have watched as people have become grandparents, I have been a counselor, a psychologist, a therapist, a shoulder to cry on, a person to laugh with, a relationship advisor, and a Spiritual counselor. I have watched and listened as some have gotten news of cancer, I have seen death close up, as I have had the most humbling experience of doing clients hair that have passed away, I have been to nursing homes to do haircut, roller sets, perms,or just to sit and visit. I have cried with you, hugged you, kissed many cheeks, and more than likely ihave gotten a few back, and I have told many many many people I love you and be safe as you have left. To all of you.. You are my family from other Mothers, and I am so grateful that you all have felt that you could sit in my chair and get the best work I could possibly do, and share so many personal things with me. To trust someone and allow another human being into your personal space, you defiantly have to have trust them.. I am SO THANKFUL & GRATEFUL to TROY & BECKY GREER (my Landlords).. THANK YOU for believing in me, and allowing us to put the salon next door to your business. THANK YOU for all of the help getting started. For helping to plumb, add more electrical to accommodate the Salon. For framing walls when we needed it, and THANK YOU for being so supportive when things got tough! You guys were there for me and had my back. Thank you hardly seems enough for your kindness and love shown. I honestly could not have asked for better Landlords. I have taken nothing for granted through the 12 yrs I have rented from you. You are family to us! To KATRINA & JIMMY HUMPHRIES, THANK YOU TOO! Thank you for your support and friendship over the years. Jimmy, thank you for your help with wiring, and framing walls when we needed help. You guys are wonderful people and are family to me!! I appreciate the Christian faith, love and kindness, and compassion you have shown us over time. We are better and blessed for it!! I am forever grateful to everyone whether you drove 1 mile or 60 miles to get your hair done, I THANK YOU FOR BEING FAITHFUL! Some of you had to pass 10 or more salons to get to me, and that speaks volumes to your loyalty! I am so THANKFUL FOR MY FAMILY TOO! My Dad Earl Beck, my Mom Margaret Beck, My son Zach Wesco, my daughter Lizz Wesco, my daughter Elizabeth Marshall Metcalfe my son in Law Jarrett Metcalfe, My Brothers Tim, Bruce, Steve & Scott Beck, my sisters in Law Pat, Carol, Maria & Kelly Beck.. my grandsons Carson Wesco, Bently Wesco & Zayn Wesco and the love of my life, Howard Marshall.. THANK YOU ALL for being so supportive and encouraging all of these years!
In closing, I want to let you all know why I am retiring in case you don’t know.. I have suffered with Fibromyalgia for the past 5 years. From years of standing on my feet, I have developed Reticular Venus insufficiency so my blood DOESNT like to flow back towards my heart the way it should and it causes my legs to swell, which then can cause cellulitis, which I have suffered 2x’s within a year. I had to be hospitalized 2x’s as well. It is a very painful thing and if it is not addressed immediately, it can cause other problems and can cause you to have amputations. Luckily I have not had to deal with that, but I do not want to have to, so being able to be off of my feet, getting proper sleep and eating 3 good and healthy meals a day is key to me staying healthy and taking better care of me has to become my number 1 priority. As I have talked to you all, you have been so understanding about this and once again supportive! I WILL MISS ALL OF YOU!! PLEASE STAY IN TOUCH WITH ME! Text, call, pm me, I still have an ear you can bend any time, or just say hi!
Dawn is going to take over the salon in the same location so please stay and support her and I believe Emily will be back after her baby is born. There is also going to be an Alterations shop in the side room at the salon, so stay supportive of them!!
FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY & HOWARD’S HEARTS, WE THANK YOU !!
As for my next chapter in life, I’ll let you know as soon as God let’s me know!!
I LOVE YOU ALL HUGS, A kiss on the cheek, and stay safe!! BE GOOD....
IF YOU CAN’T BE GOOD. BE GOOD AT IT!

Thanks for the memories and great run!
THANKS TO YOU ALL!!!!
