      <image:title>ceo | president - connie ceo, owner, president</image:title>
      <image:caption>Meet Connie Suss.  Founder. Owner. CEO. Believer. Encourager. As Founder (along with Mary Jane Van de Castle and Cathy Bentley in 1988), Connie brings a unique brand of passion and wow! to the industry. Hailing from midwestern, small-town roots, she grew up with a competitive spirit, eye for fashion and passion for learning. Both her mother and father were teachers, instilling the importance of education—which is foundational to her business. “Giving my staff opportunities to learn and grow is paramount,” says Connie. “The only way to evolve on both an individual level and team level is to get comfortable with the uncomfortable.”  With over 40 years of experience, she continues to collaborate with top-industry professionals and attends national and international events. Now sole owner (in 2011), bijin has been recognized multiple times—locally and nationally, which makes her very proud. She’s also proud to offer her employees full benefits which is unique to the industry.  Connie loves to travel with her husband, Greg, whether it’s camping in the great outdoors or splurging in the big metropolitan cities. A foodie for sure and lover of animals, she and Greg currently share their home with golden retriever, Daisy and cat, JoJo.  Fun fact: “I can’t take the cuteness of those animal reels on social media! Don’t get me started!”</image:caption>

From that point on, I cut and colored my hair for the next five years. Through all the experimentation, my passion for hair led me to my career!”</image:caption>

      <image:title>heather - heather human resources &amp; facilities specialist joined bijin in 2006 and rejoined in 2023</image:title>
      <image:caption>Heather attended the University of Kansas and JCCC studying sociology and criminology. While attending college, she decided that she wanted follow her passion for helping people — that this was her true north. Realizing she had a gift and love of massage from a very young age (friends and family can attest!), she elected to head down that path. Heather graduated from Massage Therapy Training Institute in KCMO. After practicing massage at a local hospital and chiropractor for a number of years, she joined the bijin massage team in 2006 and for 11 years as the Lead Massage Therapist. She was instrumental in introducing Hot Stone massage, the Heads, Hands and Feet Service as well as bijin’s Melt Away product. She also traveled to Kripalu, in Massachusetts, to study Ayurvedic Massage. When the pandemic hit in 2020, Heather decided to retire from massage after 20 years and refocus on a new career path. Eventually, she landed at a startup company and helped it expand to three locations in three years. In her role, she wore many hats but ultimately landed in the HR position where she found her passion again — helping people. Admitting that she always wanted to return to bijin, the stars aligned in 2023 and she is thrilled to return as HR Specialist. Her can-do spirit and caring nature make her a wonderful addition to the team — she’s a listener, a hard worker and loves to be there for people. “I am very excited to work with a strong team of women again. I feel like I’ve come home!” Fun fact: “When I was a kid, I was playing in a neighbor’s treehouse that was very high up in the tree. I fell out and landed in the bushes below. I thought I broke my leg so I jumped up, hurdled the fence and ran all the way home screaming, “MOM! I broke my leg! I broke my leg!” Needless to say, the running proved to my mom and friends that I was fine!”</image:caption>

      <image:title>karolina - karolina studio stylist hair stylist since 2025 joined bijin in 2025</image:title>
      <image:caption>Karolina graduated from Z Hair Academy in February 2025, where she quickly advanced to a Level III Stylist. Since then, she has continued to deepen her skills through advanced education and hands-on workshops, including Mizani Curly Hair Care, Hattori Hanzo haircutting, R+Co education, Kérastase education, Wella color with Amy Geister, and Balayage and Teasy Lights classes at bijin. She has also had the opportunity to be part of Kansas City Fashion Week. Karolina believes hair is never “one-size-fits-all.” She is deeply passionate about her craft and takes pride in creating a space where clients feel safe, heard, and truly cared for. Building trust is at the heart of her work, and her natural curiosity drives her to ask questions, keep learning, and continuously refine her techniques. Her specialties include blonding, women’s short haircuts, and blended, dimensional brunettes. Fun fact: “I moved across the globe at age 19 with just 50 dollars in my pocket!”</image:caption>
