On Tuesday July 24th, Dr. Centeno and I got to visit Salon 46 in Alexandria, VA. The shop has been opened for about a year and has already achieved great success and notoriety within the community. Dr. Centeno and I had the pleasure of meeting with one of Salon 46’s owner’s Cindy Wagner and several members of the charming staff. Salon 46 offers quality customer service, healthy and artistic hair care in a beautiful salon setting. Cindy and Tricia Wagner actually named the Salon after their dad who served 27 years in the Marines and flew a helicopter called the CH-46 (or 46 for short). The Bitar Cosmetic Surgery Institute looks forward to future collaborative efforts with this great business. -April Stettner
