By Administrative Resolution the Talbot County Council has enacted a temporary burn ban throughout Talbot County due to the moderate drought conditions and extremely dry vegetation. This burn ban goes into effect this morning, October 4, 2019, at 09:00 hours and will remain in effect until November 18, 2019, or until the Council terminates the ban by a separate resolution. 

During this time frame, open-air burning is prohibited due to the high risk of a controlled burn rapidly getting out of control. Talbot County is currently listed as being in a “Moderate Drought” condition by the National Integrated Drought Information System.

Since opening over a decade ago in Easton, Elizabeth Claire Salon has provided the Mid-Shore area with quality hair color expertise in a relaxing environment. After expanding her salon twice, owner Dana Mangasarian has added something new this year: E.C.& Company, a beauty boutique specializing in a variety of hair and beauty products.

After Elizabeth Claire Salon’s move to Goldsborough Street in 2018, owner Dana Mangasarian added beauty boutique E.C. & Company where she offers an expanded variety of hair and beauty products.

Elizabeth Claire Salon has always sold a selection of salon quality haircare products, but recently Mangasarian decided to expand her salon’s retail to include unique, sustainably-sourced bath and body products. “Over the past couple of years, I’ve been interested in all kinds of beauty products, and so I wanted a separate place to showcase the items that I’ve carefully researched and curated,” Mangasarian said.

As a full-service boutique, E.C. & Company is open to all Goldsborough Street shoppers in downtown Easton. Inside the adorable storefront you’ll find a beauty boutique that sells organic specialty soaps from Little Seed Farms, handmade bath balms by Musee and the same haircare products used by the stylists in its parent salon, including Leonor Greyl, a natural French haircare brand exclusive to Elizabeth Claire.Additionally, they carry Christophe Robin, a French haircare maintenance and protection line focused on ancestral recipes and pure ingredients.

“[Coming to Elizabeth Claire] is always a great experience,” one of the salon’s recent clients said. “[They have a] friendly and competent staff and wonderful products in an elegant and comfortable atmosphere.”

Beyond the haircare and skin lines at E.C. & Company, the boutique also has a premium perfume selection including Lollia, a brand featured on Oprah’s favorite things list, and Carthusia, a line of floral perfumes from Italy. They also carry a large assortment of hair accessories to add a finishing touch to your daily style. To learn more about E.C. & Company’s products, stop by their store at 25 Goldsborough Street, or call (410) 770-6998 to book your next appointment.

Elizabeth Claire Salon and E.C. & Company is a proud member of Discover Easton. Visit them online at www.elizabethclaire.salon. For more information on Discover Easton, including ways to support the independent business community of Easton, visit www.discovereaston.com.
