Today, we celebrate a beautiful ✨ milestone at Urban Spa Salon as we say happy retirement to our founder, 🤍
Karla has been the ♥️ heart, hustle, and vision behind Urban since day one. She built more than a spa—she created a safe, empowering space where women in the beauty and wellness industry could grow, stay true to themselves, support their families, and still have the flexibility to honor real life. Her leadership shaped a culture rooted in integrity, creativity, and balance, and that legacy will forever live within these walls.
While Karla is stepping into a season of rest, family, and well-deserved self-care, she’ll always be part of the Urban family. You’ll still catch her here from time to time—coffee in hand, sharing laughs, and spreading the same warmth that made Urban feel like home from the very beginning.
As we honor Karla’s next chapter, we are incredibly excited to welcome Kelly Zahniser as the new owner of Urban Spa Salon ✨
Kelly has been part of Urban since the doors first opened—serving our community as a trusted spray tan artist and licensed massage therapist with a deep passion for holistic health, confidence-building beauty, and exceptional client care. Her dedication to luxury services, continued education, and personalized experiences makes her the perfect steward of Urban’s future.
Under Kelly’s ownership, Urban Spa Salon will continue to offer elevated massage therapy, spray tanning, skincare, and wellness services to the Hazel Dell and Vancouver, Washington community, while expanding with intention and heart. The mission remains the same: to support your health, beauty, and well-being—inside and out.
Thank you, Karla, for the foundation you built. And welcome to the next chapter of Urban Spa Salon—rooted in legacy, led with passion, and created for our community 🤍
