Celebrating 10 years at D'Ambiance Barber Salon

DaShawn McManus has always had a passion for cutting hair and providing great service.

In June of 2006, he opened D'Ambiance Barber Salon on 9th Street in Downtown Wilmington. This month, he and his team are celebrating 10 years of business.

All of us at Downtown Visions are proud of the great work done by DaShawn and his team, congratulate the whole team on ten years of awesome service, and look forward to more success in the future.
