Meet Mackenzie Murphy of Eternal Elegance Salon in Cornelius, NC. Learn about her personalized salon experience, entrepreneurship journey, and upcoming Lake Norman events.
In this episode, Jeff sits down with Mackenzie Murphy, owner of Eternal Elegance Salon in Cornelius, to talk about entrepreneurship, intentional beauty services, and building a client experience that goes beyond hair.
Mackenzie shares how growing up in a family of entrepreneurs shaped her work ethic and inspired her to launch her own salon in 2023. Rather than creating a rushed, high-volume environment, Eternal Elegance focuses on personalized consultations, face and color analysis, and a custom “prescription” approach designed to deliver healthy, long-lasting results.
The conversation explores:
• Mackenzie’s journey into cosmetology and early business ownership
• Why intentional client experience is the foundation of her salon
• The partnership with Groomed and the elevated salon environment
• Marketing, networking, and collaborating with local businesses
• Launching Divine Links — her luxury hair extension brand
• The importance of relationships and creating a safe, welcoming space
• Future plans to expand spa-style services and salon experiences
Mackenzie also talks about the personal side of entrepreneurship — balancing work with travel, fitness, and downtime — and why connection and care remain central to her vision.
