Meet Doyle Sims - Doyle Designed, The Salon Committed to Change
As a child my memories of beauty were inspired by my mother. She always said “when my hair doesn’t look good, I don’t feel good”.
I began my beauty industry career when I was 21. Having always been artistic, I was drawn to the many facets of the beauty industry that would empower me to be an artist.
My approach has always been to service clients with a simple policy of tell don’t sell. In other word if I had the knowledge, and continued to update my awareness, and theirs, I would be able to honestly guide my clients in the right direction. I have continued to commit myself to enhancing the positive visual change of my clients.
I have also been able to make a great living
while managing a career that has taken me to new heights, always looking
forward to the next experience…Committing to the Evolution of
Change.
Almost every client becomes a friend. We develop a strong, personal, honest relationship with most people that walk through our door, and sit down in our chair. They are trusting us to do more than cut, color and style, they are trusting us with - the first impression...
We take that responsibility seriously. We've had clients request t-shirts that shout "Doyle Designed did it" - and we've dealt with the pain that hair loss from chemo or illness brings.
We are community motivated. We've donated our time and talent on countless occasions. Our biggest pleasure is watching the expression on a face that has gone too long without feeling important or special.

Not long ago, my mother noted some of my most
recent achievements, and reminded me that this was a path that I had
been on all of my life. The memory of receiving the Optimist
Award during my high school days had slipped my mind. The story – One day after work, I saw a man
stealing an elderly woman’s purse. After knocking her down, I
alerted other co-workers that they should call the police. I, with
no fear, ran after the man, and followed him a number of blocks
where he was hiding. When the police came around the corner, I let
them know that the man had gone into the home that I was standing in
front of. The thief was apprehended, and the woman’s purse
recovered. Shortly after, the local Optimist Club honored me with the Optimist Award for that year…My journey through life has continued to stay optimistic, in spite of what the world has exposed me to. The Optimist Creed:
Promise Yourself —
To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.
To talk health, happiness and prosperity to every person you meet.
To make all your friends feel that there is something in them.
To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true.
To think only of the best, to work only for the best and to expect only the
best.
To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your
own.
To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements
of the future.
To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living creature
you meet a smile.
To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to
criticize others.
To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too
happy to permit the presence of trouble.
