OUR STORY
The old dance hall occupied the corner, its worn floorboards and tin ceilings carrying decades of laughter. Jenna purchased the building for that very resonance—a town woven from stories—and chose to preserve them. She named it Ivory House Salon.
From the moment clients crossed the threshold, they sensed a meeting of past and present: the hush of history paired with contemporary clarity. Jenna assembled a team that shared that reverence—artisans who honor classic techniques while integrating modern products and services. Thoughtful details preserved the town’s warmth: attentive hospitality, consistent quality, and finishes that made luxury feel lived-in rather than distant.
Ivory House functions as a bridge between eras: a restored landmark transformed into an elevated salon where each corner retains a fragment of the hall’s legacy. Clients arrive for the craftsmanship and remain for the atmosphere—a place that respects what came before while embracing what comes next.
HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
Set in the heart of Dripping Springs, Mercer Street carries the spirit of a Texas past that still lingers in every storefront and stone. Once a gathering place for ranchers, travelers, and small-town life, it has evolved into a space where history and modern Hill Country culture meet effortlessly. With roots tracing back to the 1800s and ties to landmarks like Onion Creek, the street holds a quiet, enduring charm. Today, Mercer Street feels both grounded and alive, where old stories and new beginnings exist side by side.
