Our Story

Our Story

In 1980, Joan and Randy Medley opened the doors to Studio 59 Salon and Spa with the goal of delivering world-class service in a relaxing atmosphere, leaving guests feeling renewed, cared for, and transformed. Over the years, Studio 59 has become known for its extensive training program resulting in the most talented, highly skilled hairstylists and spa professionals in Chattanooga. In 1986, a partnership was born with Aveda, a natural and plant-based hair and skin care company that shared a love for holistic beauty.

In 2019, Sarah Medley took ownership with the goal of taking the family business to the next level by continually elevating the guests’ service experience with highly trained hairstylists. Sarah is passionate about identifying her team member’s individual strengths and helping them grow personally and professionally.
