Part of the Community Since 1964

Dennis Millard opened Illusion Unlimited Salon in 1964 with a focus on teamwork and great customer service. The foundation was laid several years before by his father, who opened the A Boutique salon in Parma. Starting with the letter ‘A’ meant that it was the first business name that appeared in the phone book. After a fire at the original location, Dennis gathered his team and they were all graciously offered a spot to service their clients at a salon up the street while they rebuilt. Recognizing the importance of being part of a team, the stylists donated their tips back to Dennis to help with the rebuild – less $2 each day (which was the cost of lunch back then). For a fresh start, A Boutique became Illusion Unlimited Salon when it reopened in 1964.

The foundation Dennis laid continues today with salon owner Marcy Prasek. Marcy started at Illusion Unlimited in 1988 as an assistant and salon coordinator when she was in cosmetology school. She worked her way up to general manager until eventually becoming a partner with Dennis. She bought Dennis out from the business and became the full salon owner in 2022.

Just as we have since 1964, Illusion Unlimited Salon remains dedicated to the Parma community and surrounding cities. We’re a proud member of the Parma Area Chamber of Commerce, sponsor Parma City fireworks, sponsor City of Seven Hills softball and make donations to local charities throughout the year.
