Meet Alex and Kayla Pappasburt. Alex, the Grit, and Kayla the Grace. 

Grit and Grace Salon is owned by Alex and Kayla Pappasburt, he is the Grit, and she is the Grace. They met while Alex was in the military and stationed in Georgia. Kayla and Alex purchased their first salon in March 2021, Volume Salon. When Alex was discharged from the military, they decided to relocate to Nevada. Home means Nevada for Alex, growing up in Spanish Springs. For Kayla, home was in Georgia. Kayla said the first few months in Nevada were a transitioning period, mostly because of the drier climate. But by August of 2023 the couple were well-settled and opening Grit & Grace Salon.

There are three other stylists and a nail technician.

Shaylin is a lash technician, specializing in eyelash extensions for people wanting to add volume to their eyelashes. Shaylin also offers eyebrow and lash tinting, along with brow lamination, which semi-permanently sets the eyebrow hairs in a vertical direction, giving them a brushed-up look. These services should be done at a salon due to the chemicals used around the eyes. In addition to lash and brow services, Shaylin provides lip waxing and underarm waxing.

The memories remain of a soft-spoken, seemingly unassuming but determined individual who absolutely knew what path she wanted to take in life, and followed it. Her instinctive reactions, which highlighted her steadfast level of love and caring for her family, friends and all living things found in nature, hold lessons for us all. An unexpected splash of her self-deprecating humor, coupled with uncanny timing, will always bring a smile. For me, Marie lives on in the sighting of a Black-crowned night heron in the tules, the bloom of a beautiful spring flower and, most poetically, in the struggle of wildlife photographers handling their very large camera lenses.

Her dad Ted was my dad's brother. I never knew Ted or Betty, but I wish I did. I am 73 and live in IL. I am building my family tree and see where Betty has fit in. Blessings to you Curt and family.
