Ebon Flagg opened his first Salon, Babe Styling Studios with a jump of faith. The moniker "Babe" came as a term of endearment and dedication to his clientele while also serving as an acronym for Beauty Above and Beyond Expectations. He is a strong believer in attributing much of his success to his loyal clientele.
Ebon, a Master Hair Stylist and Licensed Cosmetology Instructor, began barbering at the age of 14 but officially got his first job in a barbershop in college while attending Rutgers University in Camden, NJ from 1991 to 1995. After attending college, he worked in several different industries and has always been driven by an entrepreneurial spirit. His talent in styling women’s hair was discovered while barbering in a women’s salon and a nearby stylist suggested that he should try women’s hair. He obliged and found that not only was he talented, but he enjoyed getting to know his clientele and their conversations.
In October of 2009, Ebon ventured into opening Babe Styling Studios in the City of Wilmington, Delaware. During this time, there were very few thriving businesses on the lower end of Market Street. Eighteen months after opening, he and a fully staffed Babe outgrew this space and secured a salon twice the size to accommodate his growing clientele.
Ebon believes that quality should never be a compromised. From the most popular looks and brands, to the deepest cleansers and latest treatments, he brings it all to you! He is deeply committed to being the only place you need to look & feel great while maintaining your healthy, beautiful glow!
