Beauty shop in historic location
Alice’‘s Beauty
Salon in
Nevada City
"Beauty is in the eyes of the
beholder".. and when you see
the impeccably coiffed women
who emerge daily from Alice's
Beauty Shop, at 234 Broad Street
in Nevada City, you realize the :
fullest meaning of the old saying.
Women are admittedly vain ;
creatures, but men are frequently equally if not moresoand parts of this article will *
hold as much interest for our
male readers as all of it will
for our female readers, we are
sure.
If all of the money spent in
the United States annually on
"beauty. services". was laid end
to end. . there'd be almost no end
to it at all! It is a tremendous
business, and
creasing in scope.
One of the leading "beauty"
establishments in NevadaCoun~ :
ty, Alice's Beauty Shop hasbeen
at its present location in the .
steadily in“historic Dubrow Building for six” ~~
years; and it enjoys the patronage of a highly discriminating clientel.
Alice McGee formerly operated an exclusive dress and gift
we
%,
shop there; but switched to the
beauty shop because she had
found it difficult to "find time to
get my hair done’. The "switch"
has proved expedient and profitable for her.
When the shop first opened,
Alice employed two operators,
‘Now she has four highly skilled
operators who are fully qualified
to handle any phase of cosmotology. Alice, owner manager,
is not herself a cosmotologist
..but her staff are all products
of the finest professional schools
available, and all have enviable
"followings."
The shop is open six days
weekly, and on Wednesday and
Thursday evenings by appointment for the latest in-hair
and general beauty care.
Her senior operator, Mrs.
Elsie Downs, has been with Alice
since the day the shop opened.
Linda Nelson, Jill Harvey and
Cheryl Whittingham have joined
the firm since then, Elsie is a
“AN ATTRACTIVE and active

native of Arkansas; Cheryl came
from Southern California; Linda
and’ Jill are natives of Nevada
county. These talented gals are
all married; and Elsie and her
husband are parents of two sons,
ages 17 and 10 years.
Alice is president of the Soroptimist Club of Nevada City;
and has a wide range of civic
interests, including membership
on the Nevada City Planning
Commission, In the early '60s
she was president of the Nevada
City Chamber of Commerce..
the first, andtodate, only woman
to hold the office locally. She
is also a past president of the
local parlor of NDGW, and ofthe
Business and Professional Wo~~
beauty shop in Nevada City. Owner Alice McGee is in front of
men's Club of Nevada City.
Her husband, Garing T. McGee, holds an MM-II rating with
the State Division of Highways,
for whom he works as a purchasing agent; and is to retire
from that position in six months,
The McGees have two. sons,
Alfred and Todd. Alfred, the
eldest, is serving with the U.S.
Air Force in Kansas, and will
retire from the service in October. He and his wife are the
parents of six children, Todd is
a bachelor, lives in Philadelphia and is looking forward to a
promised visit from Alice and
Garing next October.
Alice was born and reared in
Placer County on a ranch,
where she early learnedto"'ride
horseback, milk cows, chop wood
and do all sorts of chores related to California ranch life."
Garing is a native of beautiful
Potter Valley, in Mendocino
County, and spent his earlier
years in that farming community. They came to Nevada
City from an earlier residence
in Truckee, in 1953.
The McGees have close
family connections in many parts
of California, from Eureka to San
Diego whom they enjoy visiting
when time permits. One of their
favorite recreations is taking
long weekend trips, whenever
possible, to interesting places in
neighboring states; but "home is
where the heart is'' in Nevada
City.
