Quality Touch was founded in 1984. While at a hair appointment, the original founder watched in astonishment as the stylists in the salon fumbled with foil sheets. She thought to herself, "There must be a better way".
After considering this problem, she and her husband teamed up to create a simple machine that put narrow width foil onto a roll. She then designed a dispenser to pair with her rolled foils; this tool allowed stylists to tear foils as they worked easily and to the exact length that was needed for any client that sat in their chair.
Her husband used his connections in the manufacturing industry to further grow the business. Together, they met with a local family-owned company to find a solution to the growing demand for their rolled foils. It was during that meeting that she met Gary Fleming.
Over the next fifteen years, Gary worked closely with the original owners of Quality Touch to significantly increase their growth. He became very familiar with the business's operations and invested in its success. When the original founder decided that she was ready to retire, she came to Gary with a proposition. She asked Gary if he would be interested in taking over the business. Honored by her offer, Gary agreed and began writing the next chapter for Quality Touch.
