Unlock the Power of Inner Beauty: Embrace Hair Loss with Confidence

Discovering that you are losing your hair can be an incredibly challenging experience, impacting not only your physical appearance but also your self-concept and self-esteem. At Solstice Beauty Inc. we have been proudly providing non-surgical hair loss options since 2012, catering to the needs of our valued clients.

Story Ballentine

After being diagnosed with Lupus and Fibromyalgia, SunShine Story Ballentine began to understand how challenging it can be to look and feel your best. Out of the desire to help others survive and thrive, Solstice Imaging, Inc. was born. Because how you look can also affect how you feel, she began researching ways to help others look and feel their best.  To share her love of learning and beauty with the world, she founded the Solstice Beauty Academy and the Solstice Beauty Salon, Day Spa, and Hair Loss Center.  Additionally, she wrote the book, Stress Relief Through The Senses, to provide practical suggestions for coping with stress using the mind, body, and spirit. She offers numerous online courses including the Journey to Self Love,  a therapeutic intervention for anxiety, depression, body dysmorphia, and low self-esteem. In her spare time, SunShine Story Ballentine is a Licensed Cosmetologist, Cosmetology Instructor, and Domestic Violence Advocacy Trainer for Salon Professionals.  She currently works with Dermatology Skin Surgery and Associates. Her practice focuses on helping women with dermatological issues and includes clinical makeup and non-surgical hair loss treatments. In therapy, she takes a creative and holistic approach to helping clients relieve stress, anxiety, body dysmorphia, and depression through clinical interventions that improve self-esteem, body positivity, mental health, and overall wellness.

 "I have alopecia and needed a new look for my son's wedding.  SunShine was very accommodating with her schedule and fit me in for the initial consultation as well as a follow-up for fitting and styling.  She listened very attentively and did not rush the process each time we met.  Her prices were reasonable and fair. She provides a great professional service, and she is informed and resourceful."

J. Meyers

"Sunshine Story Ballentine of Solstice Beauty Inc. provides the professionalism clients seek in a beauty specialist. She is dependable, honest, and strives to satisfy clients that are fortunate enough to secure her services. I am really impressed with the attention and quality of service I received. SunShine is caring and follows through until her clients are satisfied. I STRUGGLED WITH LOW SELF-ESTEEM when I first started my hair loss journey. Now I enjoy being a “GLAM GIRL”. I have learned so much through this process. SunShine explained options and solutions I never knew existed. At first, I was overwhelmed. Thankfully, SunShine was there to walk me through each step of my transformation patiently. Sunshine’s hair styling, skin and nail care, makeup artistry, and wardrobe coordination skills, are superb. I highly recommend Solstice Beauty, Inc. and SunShine Story Ballentine's quality beauty services for any occasion."
