We are your local honeys!
Our story
We are your Local Honeys. Our Beauty Hive is located on Niagara Street in Buffalo’s Upper Rock neighborhood. This area is so up & coming, it’s always changing and you can watch it transform right outside our window every day!
But there’s more to our story of course. LHBH was originally founded in July of 2019 in a small temporary location nearby, while the big salon was under construction. We were all set to open on Niagara Street in April 2020 but then the pandemic happened. We finally opened our Niagara Street doors on June 2nd, 2020 and these bees are here to stay! We love our Hive and we know you will too. We are always growing and evolving so stay tuned to Instagram for our ongoing endeavors!
