CARLYLE - Tri Tran, his wife Ann Nguyen and his sister Charlie Tran moved to Canada from Vietnam in 2010, and they have loved living here.
After living in Regina, they moved to Edmonton for a few years, and then headed to Whitecourt for a few more before returning to Saskatchewan.
In June 2020, they opened Ann’s Nails and Spa in Weyburn, after they had taken all the necessary courses to open a salon.
Tri said they are remarkably busy and often remain open until 10 p.m. to accommodate their customers.
They pride themselves on knowing all their customers by name and remember the stories that are shared, which include names of their families.
“This is not only a business for us, but our customers become family,” said Tri.
The three of them got into this profession because they love to make people feel beautiful.
Tri said Vietnamese men are not typically as strong physically, and they cannot always do the work in construction or oilfields, so they do this kind of work instead and are successful, because they love doing it.
After operating their business in Weyburn for five years, they had been asked to consider opening a place in Carlyle, as many of their customers come from the area.
They decided this was a fantastic opportunity to offer their customers a closer place to go, but they will keep the Weyburn spa open as well and have hired staff to accommodate everyone.
Now living in Carlyle, they love the community, the people, and the peaceful and relaxed feeling of 小蓝视频 in a smaller town.
Living in Canada has given them a great feeling, and they enjoy talking to their clients to get more information on the culture in Canada. They also love to be educated on the history.
“We want to learn all about this country as we love it,” said Tri. “This will remain our home and we will retire here.”
They have gone to Kenosee Lake and White Bear, seeing the beauty that surrounds the lakes. The welcome they have received from the community and surrounding areas has been wonderful.
The spa, which is located on Main Street in Carlyle, will have its grand opening on May 17. They are excited for everyone to see the new place.
They will offer acrylic and gel nails, pedicures, manicures and 3D design. Along with this, they will offer eyelash extensions, eyebrow tattoos, and micro-blading and waxing of all kinds.
They have some work to do in the building and their sign needs to be hung, but they will be ready for the opening.
