Our Story
Modern Wave is now second-generation owned. The previous owner, Ted Arcienega retired after 40 years in the industry. Ted has been lucky enough to mentor many hairstylists including one of the recent owners. It is a mother-and-daughter-owned salon. Both owners have grown up in the Bridgeport neighborhood while being long-time patrons Of Modern Wave. Modern Wave is more than a salon to us, it’s family, from the staff to clients.
