“Anytime You’re in Jonesboro, Stop By and We’ll Open Up the Soda Box For Ya”
Assisted Living Beauty Salons Find Cache Beauty Supply “Right Neighborly”
Cache Beauty Supply in Jonesboro, Ark., is a place you’re likely to find
family and friends gathered around the lunch table together while enjoying the
simplest of concepts —quality time with each other. But don’t let the laid-back,
honest nature of the folks at Cache Beauty Supply fool you because it is also a
place where you will find a quality of product and service unsurpassed. A growing international business with 8,000-plus products in stock and 16,000
on a special-order basis, Cache Beauty Supply has been in business for almost 28
years. Brothers Joe and Bill Dickens work side-by-side in a family owned business
where everyone from wives to children are involved. Titles seem to matter little
and everyone pitches in when something needs doing.
“We’ve kind of got a philosophy around here,” says Bill Dickens, “that we
like to do business with people who are a pleasure to do business with because we want to be a pleasure to do business with.”
The dedication to enjoyment and the commitment to doing their best are
reasons why Cache is so successful. Dickens says in today’s world, immediacy is
an important issue and he wants his clients to get their products when they want
them— one of the reasons why they remain well-stocked. Products range from small
nail clippers to large cabinetry to outfit complete spas or barber shops. They
have shipped stock from Mexico to Canada to England and places in between.
The Internet has been a great source of expansion for the company.
Cache has been providing beauty supplies to nursing homes and assisted living
communities for years. Dickens knows that developers who are putting together
new communities will want to turn to someone who has the experience. “My brother and I have talked about this many times. We’re so excited to see
an assisted living facility put in a salon,” he continues, “because if you’re
looking good—you’re feeling good. Residents who are feeling good won’t become a
problem for that facility.”
“Salons can become a centerpiece for a facility,” says Dickens, “where ladies
and men can come and socialize and get their hair cut and styled. Salons give
dignity back to elderly people.”
Cache Beauty Supply has a full line of custom products for long-term care
facilities such as rollabout dryers, Shampease boards and even hydrolic styling
chairs customized to handle transfer of patients from wheelchairs. Dickens will
consult with clients to answer any questions about salon care for the elderly. And if you’re ever in Jonesboro, he suggests you drop in and visit for awhile
because he’ll open up the soda box for you.
