The new Shagg is even stronger than before with a united team of stylists, confident in their mission to be a family through hard work and love. “The fire, the devastation, the work two times over – I would not wish that on anyone,” Gina shared, following with, “Yet we survived, and we were able to rebuild and come back. In June 2020, Shagg Salon finally reopened for business. For two years, Gina, Dayna, and their staff continued to service all their clients during the day while using their non-salon hours to pour everything they had, for a second time, into rebuilding their salon. Aubrey’s Beauty Salon in Riverview even offered up space so the girls could continue in their crafts. Flat Rock began showing support through fundraisers and other offerings to help to the Shagg crew. While distraught by what happened, the family of stylists were also humbled with an outpouring of community support. Shagg Salon grew into a staple within the Flat Rock community with a steadily growing clientele and very talented staff, but on April 15, 2018, their dream literally went up in flames as a devastating fire that ripped through the historic home.

In June of 2009, Shagg Salon officially opened for business! With family by their sides, Gina and Dayna began the process of remodeling the space.
When the building went up for sale, the mother-daughter duo scooped it up. For years, Gina had her eye on the unique home, knowing in her heart that the ornate design, location, and overall curb appeal would make it the perfect place for her salon.
That dream materialized back in 2007 when Gina and her daughter Dayna Ritter purchased a beautiful 1924 historic home. “I’ve been a stylist for more than forty years, my whole adult life – and working with my daughter Dayna is something I always wanted to do,” said Gina, “Shagg Salon is truly a dream come true!” It is the place Gina Dandy always dreamed of owning. Walk into Shagg Salon in downtown Flat Rock Michigan and you will be greeted with a 1920s decor, leopard prints, and a friendly hello from the receptionist at the desk.
