New Salon And Spa Plans Whitefish Bay Opening

WHITEFISH BAY, WI — Tracy Sternig has applied for village approval to operate the hair salon and aesthetics spa Citrine and Sage Beauty Workshop at 316 E. Silver Spring Drive in suites 236, 237, and 238.

According to Whitefish Bay Plan Commission documents, typical business hours are expected to be from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. from Monday to Sunday.

In a letter to Whitefish Bay officials, Sternig said they intend to renovate the interior of the space to make it suitable for their operations.

Sternig said renovations would include: opening the wall between the two waiting areas to give the salon and spa a cohesive feeling of one business; removing the reception desk and building a high partition wall to match the existing high partition wall to create a semi-private suite; opening one of the existing rooms with another existing room to make one larger suite.

Sternig indicated they would also like to add locking doors to all of the suites so the individuals renting them are assured their belongings are safe and secure when they're not there; replacing the existing hallway doors with glass doors in wooden frames to brighten up the hallway; updating the ceiling tiles and existing lighting with can and track lighting and ripping out all of the carpeting and replacing it with high end vinyl so it's water resistant.

"Although my business is set up for individuals to run their own salon/spa out of it, it's important for me to maintain a standard of quality in what we bring to our customers and the community," Sternig wrote. "I carry Glo Skin Beauty, a full skin and beauty (makeup) line. All of the products are cruelty free, synthetic fragrance and color pigment is NEVER used, and the company strives to use environmentally ethical packaging to cut down on waste."

The Plan Commission has scheduled a Public Hearing for Tuesday, July 16, 2019 at 6 p.m., in the Whitefish Bay Village Hall Board Room, 5300 North Marlborough Drive for public input on the development.
