A bouquet of flowers, a fresh haircut and a relaxing facial may not typically go hand in hand.
At Bloom in Ronkonkoma, that’s exactly the idea.
The new business, located at 3 Hawkins Ave. in Station Yards, combines a full-service florist, salon and med spa under one roof. Owned by Kerry Maher Weisse, who also owns Lake Avenue Florist in St. James, Bloom held its soft opening earlier this month and will celebrate its grand opening Saturday.
According to salon manager, head colorist and stylist Olivia Eisenberg, the concept evolved after Maher Weisse secured the spacious Station Yards location.
“Kerry wanted to open the florist and when she got this space, it was just going to be floral,” Eisenberg said. “Then she realized how big this was and thought, ‘Wow, I can make something even bigger.’”
That idea grew into a business centered on beauty, wellness and special occasions.
“So, you can come in here and self-love yourself,” Eisenberg said. “You can get your hair done, you can get your facial, you can get a head spa, you can relax, and we’re also going to leave with some flowers. She wanted to fill everyone’s cup here.”
