📍 Where’s Jake Wednesday?
Today Jake is at Flawless Salon & Beauty Bar—and yep… he’s totally blushing standing with all these pretty girls 😅💁‍♀️✨

📌 1025 E German St Extension, Herkimer, NY 13350
📞 1 (315) 219-5946

Here’s the vibe at Flawless:
✨ A place where everyone feels welcomed, valued, and cared for
✨ Built on genuine connections, teamwork, and a passion for helping people feel their best
✨ Beauty isn’t “just hair”—it’s a spot to relax, feel supported, and leave with renewed confidence

And the name?
💖 “Flawless” doesn’t mean perfect—it means confidence. They want every guest to feel empowered and like the best version of themselves.

They’re also all about the community:
🏡 Serving since April 2015
📍 Moved to their new location 4 years ago
🙌 They volunteer, support local causes, and work to empower women to be leaders—using their success to give back

Thanks for having us, Flawless—Jake can’t stop smiling 😄

Happy Mother’s Day to all the incredible moms in our community. 🌼 🌺

The ones who protect, provide, and put everyone else first…day in and day out.

At our agency, we talk a lot about protection…
But no policy in the world compares to the love, sacrifice, and care a mother gives her family. ❤️

Today, we celebrate YOU. 💐
Thank you for everything you do, seen and unseen. 💪

We did it! 🌅

We made it through the darkest timeline (literally). The sun sets at 5PM in New York tonight, and the next pre-5PM sunset isn’t until NOVEMBER now!

Basically, it’s pool season again 🏊 😎 🥶 😂
