Harvey Lemmond, owner of the salon, is honored to have won these awards.
Harvey earned his license when he was a sophomore at Garland High School and his family name has been associated with hair salons since 1962 when James Lemmond, Harvey’s father, opened the Flat Top Barber Shop at the corner of Walnut Street and Jupiter Road. James employed both Harvey and his brother Jackie. Harvey stayed there for 13 years before moving into a newly built salon on Forest Lane in Garland in 1975.
After leaving the Forest Lane location, Harvey opened a new salon at the corner of Belt Line Road and Jupiter Road. He remained there for 19 years then sold the salon and worked there with the new owner. He opened the salon in downtown Garland seven years ago.
