Raising the Bar in Beauty
Lauren and Manda’s journey began in the heart of the Midwest, where family values, hard work, and an entrepreneurial spirit shaped their vision. Their roots in the salon industry shaped their vision: to create beauty spaces that were clean, welcoming, and truly elevated. They didn’t just follow trends, they saw what was missing and built something better.
With their pulse on industry shifts, they knew the next step was bigger than the salon. They envisioned beauty products that combined luxurious self-care with smart, science-driven formulations: high-performance solutions designed for professionals and clients alike.
Then they met Ed and Denise, kindred spirits with the expertise and passion to bring their vision to life. The partnership was instant chemistry, and together, they created Goddess Maintenance Company—a brand that celebrates beauty, empowerment, and innovation.
Now, they’re taking their philosophy beyond the salon, delivering high-performance products powered by proprietary technology. Every formula is crafted with purpose, designed to give professionals the tools they need and clients the results they crave. No shortcuts, no compromises—just smart, effective beauty from those who know it best.
