Kim Greis

Owner and Hair Stylist

Kim has 26 years experience in the salon industry, starting as a salon assistant in her junior year of high school.  After graduating from Empire Beauty School in 1983, she continued assisting and eventually began a clientele all of her own.   Always marching to a different beat, Kim finally opened her own salon in 1991, Kimberly’s Salon.  In 1993 Kim’s husband Scott joined her at Kimberly’s Salon and their business evolved into something much bigger than they ever imagined.

Inspired by Horst Rechelbacher, founder of Aveda and Noelle DiCaprio of Noelle’s Day Spa.  Kim and Scott realized their desire to take their business to another level, educating their clients in the world of fashion, beauty, and wellness.  After renovating a building in Downtown Pottsville, Kim and Scott opened Heaven and Earth Salon/Spa on March 4th 1996.  Today Kim still finds joy in the salon industry working on her clientele and inspiring her employees. 

Kim once had a dream . . . . . . . . . . and now you’re in it.
