My name is Melissa Volk, I am originally from Dickinson but I have been in Bismarck since 2002. I have been in the hair industry since moving here and I have owned Evolve since 2016. As a mom of 2 small children and running a business I know how busy life can get, but also how important it is to take time for yourself. I have made Evolve the kind of place that is perfect for a busy people like you to get pampered! Being in the industry for 20+ years I take pride in educating myself and my staff in the latest trends and techniques so we have the best team to help make you feel beautiful and relaxed! While most salon & spas can offer for a pampering experience, we go above and beyond to make everyone feel welcome and uplifted. We want you to feel pampered physically as well as mentally. When I'm not busy at the salon I'm helping my husband fix up our home that was built in 1906 and also collecting antiques. My favorite antiques are my hand mirrors that you will see hanging up at the Salon! If you are ready for a unique spa experience book with us now!

I'm up for the challenge to grow and learn through modern and inventive techniques with nail art, reflexology pedicures, haircuts, colors and styles. My family is my life.

Master Cosmetologist
Hey I'm Shelby, a master Cosmetologist here at Evolve I am originally from South Dakota but have lived in North Dakota since 2021. I have been in the hair industry about 10 years now and have loved every minute of it! We all have curly hair in my family including my 9 nieces. So i have gotten to know the ins and outs of curls and i feel quite comfortable helping tame or bring out those natural curls! I have been to many modern educational events over the years, and i always look forward to gaining more knowledge in all areas of this industry. I am so passionate with colors! Most of my clients are trendy but one thing remains the same, the lived-in low-maintenance look is prized and high on my list of comfortability. When i'm not i the salon you can find me doing karaoke with my nieces! It's by far my favorite past time. Family connection is so important to me. There is rarely a moment i'm not looking forward to the next adventure at the lake, carnivals, concerts and good food! I am currently accepting new clients, and I would love to see you in my chair!
