About Strands By Jana

Meet Jana – Kerrville’s Trusted Hairstylist for 22 Years

Behind every great haircut is someone who truly listens—and that’s what makes Jana Dunning stand out. As the owner and sole stylist of Strands By Jana, she brings more than just skill to the chair—she brings heart, warmth, and a passion for helping people feel great about themselves.

Whether you’re sitting down for a quick trim or a total color transformation, you can expect her full attention, honest guidance, and professional results every time.

30+ Years of Passion, Precision & People

Jana's journey began over three decades ago with a pair of shears and a dream to build a career where she could help people feel confident and refreshed. From her very first clients to the loyal regulars she serves today, Jana has always believed in providing a one-on-one experience where each person feels valued.

Her dedication to her craft is evident in everything she does—from staying current with hair trends and techniques, to using quality products, to making sure each guest leaves with a smile.

“I love what I do. It’s about more than hair—it’s about helping people feel their best.” –  Jana Dunning

A Local Salon with a Personal Touch

Strands By Jana isn’t a busy chain or high-pressure studio. It’s a quiet, comfortable space inside Mane Attractions Salon where clients receive personalized, unrushed service. Jana runs her chair by appointment so you never feel like you're being rushed out for the next person.

Over the years, she's styled young children, high school students, professionals, retirees, and entire families—many of whom have been coming back for years. The relaxed vibe of her space and her friendly nature make people feel right at home.

Clients often say Jana feels more like a friend than a stylist—and that’s exactly the kind of experience she strives to create.
