KENNETH COTE @ Shimmer Salon and Day Spa - 401-336-3700

After owning and operating Kenneth Cote' Salon at 333 Main Street for more than 40 years, I am proud to announce that I have joined the Shimmer Salon &amp; Day Spa team at 500 Main Street in East Greenwich, Rhode Island. Following a series of surgeries and recoveries, along with the loss of my longtime administrative coordinator and dear friend, Richard Bump, I found myself at a point of reflection and transition. I made the decision to redirect my career from salon ownership toward something that has always been at the center of who I am: continuing to cultivate my craft as a Hair Artist and educator. As I return to Main Street, my intention is simple: to reconnect with the skills, creativity, and level of care that built my reputation over decades, while offering you the opportunity to reimagine the experience and quality I can bring to your sense of style. I have always taken pride in helping clients leave with a greater understanding of their hair than when they first sat in my chair. Hair has never simply been about appearance; it has always been about connection, education, and trust. After years of experience, one thing remains unchanged: every service begins with a pair of ears before a pair of shears. Life has brought its share of challenges over recent years — personal loss, physical setbacks, and significant change. Those experiences have reshaped me, but they have also clarified something important: I am returning to the place where I truly belong. After nearly five decades in this industry, I am not stepping backward into who I once was; I am stepping forward as who I am today — a distilled version of those years of experience, with greater focus, stronger purpose, and a deeper appreciation for what matters most. I look forward to reconnecting with familiar faces, welcoming new ones, and beginning this next chapter together. — Kenneth Cote'

WEST GREENWICH, RI —A North Carolina resident was charged Thursday in Providence federal court with firearms and drug trafficking charges. According to the U.S. Attorney's office, the case against Anthony Moniz Thompson, 39, of Charlotte, stems from a car stop in I-95 on June 20. State police allege they found illegal drugs and loaded, high-powered firearms in his vehicle, along with camouflage equipment and night-vision goggles. He is charged with being a felon in possession of firearms, possession with the intent to distribute 50 grams or more of MDMA (or Molly), and possession of a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking crime. According to court papers, Thompson tried to run away. Police allege he shoved a trooper into a travel lane of the highway, and then fled along the highway. Police used a Taser to take him down. Thompson, who is presently being held in state custody on firearms, drug, assault and resisting arrest charges, will make an initial appearance in U.S. District Court at a later date.
