Beverly Brunkhurst
Level 4 Stylist Propreitor
After 16 years as owner of Indulgence The Salon, and 39 years as a licensed cosmetologist, I continue to enjoy my profession and the gratification that comes with it.
My specialties include designing for my clients the perfect hair color that will complement their skin tones and lifestyles. I especially enjoy the challenge of corrective hair color. The greatest reward for me is having a client look in the mirror and exclaim, "I love my hair!"
In addition to my management and stylist responsibilities at Indulgence, I have worked for Goldwell Hair Color, teaching hair color seminars. I have also worked for Maly's, a professional beauty supply distributor, teaching motivational and business advancement workshops for salons and stylists. Currently Indulgence the Salon is proud to be a KRS Summit Salon. My involvement with the associate program has ignited my zeal to share my knowledge with the next generation of upcoming hairdressers.
In my spare time, I have participated in Toastmaster's International. I also like to get away to Palm Desert with my four dogs; Sammy my 4 year old Labrador Retriever, Casey a Labrador mix who is also a retired therapy dog and has recently passed, Charlie a Retriever mix whom Corina found, Barney who found me in my neighborhood, a Spaniel mix and new to my pack,Katie, a Lab mix who I adopted from Downey Seeaca.
Thursday through Saturday, you will find me at Indulgence, continuing to help make the Salon welcoming and comfortable, a place where all who enter will find a staff ready to indulge them.

When coloring your hair for the first time I say, go for it honey! Nowadays, there are so many options to color that it's important to remember that even a little experimentation goes a long way!"

Samantha English
Entry Level
“Every artist was first an amateur.”-Ralph Waldo Emersom
If ever there was an example of “someone ahead of their time,” Samantha Marie English is it. At the ripe age of 14, Samantha surrounded herself in all that was hair, makeup and fashion. She knew how important her own hairstyle was to her evolving image. Soon the second mirror in the bathroom became an integral part in learning how to cut her own hair, which eventually led to family and friends seeking out her magic. Quickly, haircutting wasn’t enough; her insatiable appetite to learn steered her to hair coloring, braiding, glue-in extensions, sew-in extensions, clip-in extensions-all skills she mastered while still in high school.
Now licensed since 2010, Samantha has rooted herself at Indulgence, The Salon in Lakewood , California . She served under the tutelage of Redken Artistic Educator, Corina Durazo and further influenced by David Stanko and Tony Del Salvo, also both from team Redken. Currently, she is the only stylist at Indulgence, The Salon who offers mechanical weaving for hair extensions.
“At first, I always thought working behind the chair was all I wanted to do, and I’d be completely satisfied. But now I know there’s so much more that I want to do. I try to support my clients—showing someone their inner beauty and helping them overcome challenges are the things that motivate me.She is available for appointments Tuesdays and Sundays.
