The Story of Justina’s Brand
From the salon chair to salon suites, Justina Cleveland Blackett is a proud Memphis native whose passion for beauty began right here at home. Cosmetology was first introduced to her through the Memphis City Schools, and both her mother and father were licensed cosmetologists — inspiring a lifelong commitment to the craft.
Justina began her career behind the chair in 1983. More than 42 years later, she continues to grow her legacy and impact the beauty industry in meaningful ways.
“I love knowing that so many women and men have been part of my growing roots in this industry.”
Owning her own salon became one of her greatest accomplishments, and today that dream has evolved into Justina’s Salon Suites — a modern, professional environment for independent stylists and beauty entrepreneurs.
Transitioning into the salon-suite model isn’t just a dream; it’s a purpose-driven reality. The beauty industry is always evolving, and Justina’s Salon Suites gives professionals the opportunity to own their time, their brand, and their success.
Being a cosmetologist is more than hair, nails, makeup, or lashes — it’s about shaping lives and serving the community. At Justina’s Salon Suites, we believe beauty is both a calling and a culture.
How We Differ: Boutique Suites, Personalized Spaces
Justina’s Salon Suites & Boutiques offers something large salon-suite chains can’t — an empty canvas for beauty professionals to create their own atmosphere and brand identity.
Here, there are no cookie-cutter spaces. Every suite reflects the artistry and individuality of its owner.
With over 42 years of experience, Justina understands the real-world needs of stylists and small-business owners. She’s created a space that’s centrally located, clean, and inspiring — the perfect space for licensed professionals to thrive.
Key Features: Centrally located | Clean atmosphere | Ample parking
Mission & Values:
Building Opportunity Through Faith and Community
“My mission has always been to create opportunity and hope within my community.”
Justina believes in helping people believe in themselves — to walk confidently through one door and into another.
“Doors are symbolic of life and change. Every open door represents a new opportunity.”
Rooted in faith, her guiding principle comes from 3 John 1:2: “Beloved, I pray that in all things you may prosper and be in good health, just as your soul prospers.”
This verse reflects Justina’s vision for every professional who enters her space — to prosper wholly: in life, in business, and in spirit.
“Memphis has rewarded me richly, and I’ll always call it home.”
Owner’s Note: A Message from Justina C. Blackett
As the owner of Justina’s Salon Suites, I am always available — always open to listen, to guide, and to connect. People need people. Beauty is deeper than appearance; it comes from within.
A simple touch can change everything. I believe in giving every stylist, every client, and every person who walks through my doors the best touch of care, excellence, and encouragement.
It’s all that truly counts.
— Justina C. Blackett
