How one local duo found their way during uncertain times.
“We’re a Team.”
Those are the words of Deb, founder of Bearden Design et Boutique, now, Bearden Design et Boutique & Salon.
She is speaking about her husband, Gil Mouyal, a hairstylist for over 40 years here in Birmingham with whom she joined forces during quarantine to find a way for both of their businesses to survive.
Their solution? Merge her clothing boutique with his hairstyling to create a unique experience for both of their customers.
Clients can visit Gil’s full service salon and walk out to the boutique to shop unique styles by designers from all over the world. The boutique features international fashion, independent designers and eco friendly manufacturers, coupled with amazing customer service. Alterations, approvals and lay–a–way are available as well as private appointments.
The salon features hair color by Matix an ammonia free color, Brazilian blowout, Moroccan oil products and Keritan complex services.
The couple has been in the customer service industry for a collective 60 years and are thrilled to put their passions together as co-workers to continue to serve the city of Birmingham.
During this uncertain time, Gil and Deb have created a silver lining —one that’s brought them together as co–workers and closer as a couple.
Bearden Design et Boutique & Salon is located in Homewood on 18th Street.
