Kim Carter + Alicia Miller
HI! Welcome! We’re so glad you found us! We hope we can all become fast friends!
If you do not know us, we are Kim Carter and Alicia Miller. We’ve been best friends for 14 years and are now business partners of a boutique salon in Little Rock, Arkansas.
We met in November 2006, at a well-known salon in Little Rock’s Heights district. Alicia had just finished up her year-long apprenticeship under senior stylists and Kim had just moved home from a year-long apprenticeship in Manhattan. Our salon stations were right next to each other. In the beginning, it was just friendly banter and social niceties. In April 2007, we went to a product knowledge class in Kansas City. ROAD TRIP. We came back from that quick weekend class as forever friends.
Kim Carter
Hello friends- I’m Kim Carter! I’m married to my husband of almost 9 years, Carl, and we have three super fantastic children. Luke (18), Chloe (16), and Collin (6). We also have the sweetest Goldendoodle, Lucy (Goosey.) I am originally from Tampa, Florida (Go Bucs!), but I moved to Central Arkansas in Fall 1994. I’ve been a hairstylist for 18 years.
I am definitely that cliche of “jack of all trades” — I love trying new things. All of the time. Mostly, cooking, baking, and photography are the big draws for me. I will not lie to you that I am great at any of these things, but I sure do love to try them.
I enjoy the home life and living in the comfortable walls of familiarity. But, I also do enjoy an occasional fancy night out and I will always put on some heels for a good dinner. Foodies unite.
I really, really love taking photos of all the pretty plates and writing friendly reviews of local eateries in our hometown, but also throughout my travels. (About that culinary degree…)
Alicia Miller
Hey guys, Lish here! First, I’ll start with my name. My name is Alicia, phonetically pronounced uh-lish-uh. Contrary to the popular spelling uh-leesh-uh. My family & close friends call me Lish, or Lisha, or Lishabrook if things are really serious! As you already know, I am a hairdresser & small business owner with my bestie, Kim. I also have spent the last 12 years working for an Italian haircare company as a trainer & guest artist. I’d like to go ahead & give them, most if not all, the credit for my love of a fancy dinner party and a pair of sparkly sneakers. The absolute best part of 2020 was getting to move into my newly renovated historic home with my 7-year- old rescue lab, Florence, & her ancient 17-year old feline sister, Ava. I’ve made this little dwelling everything my girly-heart has ever wanted. It’s full of pink & mauves, velvet & all the shiny pretty things.
