About

WE ARE FAMILY

Celebrating 40 years in business, K. Charles & Co. is a family owned and operated salon in San Antonio. Started in 1984 by Kathy Thalman, it is now owned by her daughter Holly, who has proudly continued her mother’s legacy. This sense of family is extended not only to their team of stylists, but also to every guest who comes through the doors.

WE ARE AVEDA

After meeting Aveda Founder Horst Rechelbacher in the 80’s, Kathy was convinced it was the brand for her salon. K. Charles & Co. was the second Aveda salon in the state of Texas and has been at the forefront of the organic movement since we opened. We are proud to uphold Aveda’s standards not only in the use of natural, plant-based, prestigious products, but also in superior guest care, customer service and environmental stewardship.

WE ARE EXPERTS & INNOVATORS

Leading talent is the foundation of our business, and it’s what sets K. Charles & Co. apart from the competition. All stylists go through extensive training to ensure guests feel comfortable with any member of our team— whether you pre-book with your favorite stylist, or just show up for a walk-in, you will be in the hands of a team of experts and the results will be consistently stunning. We also facilitate continuing education with top industry educators so that we are continuously improving.  

We are proud to be a non-tipping salon. Our team based service program allows us to work as a unit to ensure our goals of excellence and timeliness are met. We are a team of highly trained professionals, and just as you would not tip your dentist, doctor or lawyer, we do not expect or accept gratuity.
