Integrity. Camaraderie. Real connection.
Our team is tight-knit, collaborative, and genuinely collective in every sense. At Varuna, everyone contributes, and everyone supports; no one is left to go it alone. The culture here is grounded in integrity and transparency, where communication is open and expectations are clear. Teamwork always comes before ego, and accountability is paired with trust to create a safe, high-functioning space to grow.
Step into a career that opens doors.
Step into a career that opens doors. From Aveda to Annapolis and beyond, Varuna connects you to a powerful network of opportunities in the beauty and wellness industry. You’ll be part of a salon with a legacy of excellence, from participating in renowned events like Aveda Congress, Earth Month initiatives, and New York Fashion Week, to being recognized as a NAHA Finalist Team and a Top 200 Salon for over 13 years. Our team is proudly affiliated with respected organizations like the Professional Beauty Association and Behind The Chair, and we’re honored to serve as the salon and spa for the U.S. Naval Academy.
Customized learning. Real growth. Your pace.
Our education philosophy is centered on meeting every artist where they are and helping them grow into the professional they want to become. All new hires begin in our new talent program, with the opportunity to move onto the floor within 30 to 60 days. From there, we offer fully tailored training pathways. Education continues in-house on a quarterly basis — and often more frequently — with expert educators brought into the salon for advanced, hands-on workshops. We also support and fund off-site education, including events like Aveda Congress and advanced technique classes.
We support your whole life, not just your work life.
Success doesn’t come from burnout. At Varuna, we believe your ability to thrive in the salon or spa depends on how full your tank is outside of it. Our scheduling is flexible, accommodating personal needs and real-life rest. Whether you need time off to travel or space to recharge, we work with you.
We don’t just give back. We ripple out.
Our name comes from the Vedic god of water, and our culture flows from that same ripple effect. When our guests leave feeling centered and relaxed, that peace extends outward, into their families, their workplaces, and the world around them.
We’re deeply rooted in Annapolis, and our team is proud of the philanthropic legacy we’ve cultivated over the years. From raising funds for Charity:Water during Earth Month, to supporting the YWCA year-round, to sponsoring families for the holidays and organizing food drives, giving back is woven into the fabric of who we are.
