Simply Your Best opened in July 2011 with JoAnna the owner as the only stylist. JoAnna opened the business with the bare minimum, there was only one styling station and we did not even have any take home products. She had a goal of the end result, a place where any one was welcomed, could be pampered as they felt needed, and to create a great workplace for all those that would join her along the way. In 2012, another styling station was added. Year after year the salon continues to show healthy growth. We now have a team of 7. We have a wide variety of take home products for your hair, skin, and nails. As well as essential oils for your over all well being. The team at SYB are committed to give you a salon experience you will love. We hope that every client has the opportunity to escape from life, laugh with each other, relax and rejuvenate! We want you all to walk away feeling "Simply Your Best" from the inside out!

JoAnna Sindone ~ Owner/ Licensed Cosmetologist
Level 4 Stylist Since third grade JoAnna knew that she wanted to be a cosmetologist, she had a love of everything hair and makeup. JoAnna entered the field of cosmetology in 1999. She attended SCT BOCES while she was completing high school in Watkins Glen. JoAnna graduated from both in 2001, and was inducted into the National Honor Society at both locations. She was also awarded the Cosmetology Sincerity Award her senior year. After graduation JoAnna began working at Smartstyle, within a year she took on her first position as a salon manager. In 2006 JoAnna relocated to South Carolina where she began working for the franchise Great Clips. JoAnna believes this was the most positive experience in her career. She started as a stylist and worked her way up to her final position as General Manager overseeing 7 salons. During this time JoAnna attended a three day cutting workshop, and a week long seminar about leading a high performing work place. In 2008 JoAnna made the decision to return home and started working at Ulta as the salon manager. JoAnna enjoyed working at Ulta, but when she came across a small salon in the village of Odessa that was for rent she knew it was time to take the risk she had always dreamed of. In February 2011, she made the great leap with only her shears and a line of color to get her through and successfully opened Mane Street Hair Designs. The building soon after changed hands and JoAnna decided she would relocate. In July she opened Simply Your Best, with herself as the only stylist. With hard work perseverance, and dedication she has grown it to be what it is today. Throughout her career JoAnna has taken several Matrix and Redken color classes, attended the International Beauty Show in NYC several times, completed the Summit salon seminar, and is constantly researching and learning new techniques. She loves to work in all aspects in the salon, but says hair cutting is her absolute favorite. JoAnna says she loves what she does because she is constantly enriching peoples lives. She loves that positive impact on everyone who comes into the salon. JoAnna was inducted into the GST BOCES Hall of Fame in 2016. |
