Community Highlights: Meet Dominique La Vie of Dom La Vie

Today we’d like to introduce you to Dominique La Vie.

Hi Dominique, can you start by introducing yourself? We’d love to learn more about how you got to where you are today?
I was born and raised in Anchorage Alaska, but my career started in Arizona, where I went to hair school and discovered my gift. I moved to Maryland and that’s where the entrepreneur in me truly came alive. I built a real clientele, learned how to brand myself, and proved that my talent could thrive anywhere. When I returned to Alaska, I rebuilt my name from the ground up and learned resilience, consistency, and how to create luxury in places where people don’t expect it. Eventually I came back to Arizona to expand my brand and step fully into my dreams. What carried me through every chapter was my ability to pivot. Every time life shifted, I shifted with it, and that flexibility is the reason Dom La Vie continues to grow.”

Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
The love of my family and community that has always covered me. So…I don’t view my journey as hard I view it as a sweet surrender . God has always been my anchor, and motherhood, movement, and reinvention have shaped me into the woman and stylist I am today. Every place I’ve lived required a new version of me, and every challenge sharpened me. I’ve learned to pivot with purpose, trust my gift, and stay grounded no matter the season.

Great, so let’s talk business. Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
Dom La Vie is more than a salon. It is a self-care experience through the lens of hair. I specialize in extensions and healthy hair care, but what I am really known for is creating a space where women feel restored, confident, and seen. My finishes are sleek, my extensions are natural, and my approach is rooted in protecting the woman and the hair.
What sets Dom La Vie apart is the intention behind it. Every detail is designed to feel elevated, soft, and personal. I have built this brand in three completely different states, and each chapter taught me how to create luxury anywhere. Dom La Vie is expanding into a full self-care brand with healthier routines, smarter maintenance, and products that support the woman as much as the style. My goal is for every client to feel like she is stepping into her highest self

What are your plans for the future?
I am excited to grow in every area of my life. This season feels intentional. I am trusting my gifts, building confidence in the areas I want to elevate, and allowing myself to expand without rushing. I am not focused on trends or comparison. I am focused on honoring my gifts and developing them with purpose.
Dom La Vie is entering a new chapter. I want to build out the self-care side of the brand with healthier routines, intentional maintenance, and products that support the woman beyond the appointment. I am excited for growth, new offerings, and creating an even more elevated experience for every client
