Here at La Bella, we like to consider our salon an intimate, yet upscale environment in which we take pride in personalizing the experience for each and every one of our unique and beautiful clients. Not only that, we are also an extremely tight-knit, family-like group who embraces each other for our own special talents, personalities, and style... after all, each one of us contributes a special ingredient to the recipe that is the La Bella Hair Studio Experience! Month by month we will be featuring a different hairstylist to offer you the opportunity to get to know us better, and to give us the opportunity to shine one by one!
The Featured Employee of the Month for November is....
Sarah!
Sarah is the administrative assistant/receptionist here at La Bella- many of you know her well, as she has a way of connecting with each and every one of our clients with the truest sincerity. What you may not know about her is: she graduated from VCU with a B.S. in Psychology, a field she is very passionate about (makes sense when you consider her uncanny personalized attention for ALL of us). She plans to continue her education and pursue a Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy.
She enjoys working with La Bella’s clientele and working so closely with cosmetology. The feeling is completely mutual!
Q: How long have you been in the industry?
A. About a year- La Bella has been my first foray into the beauty industry!
Q: What is your favorite service, and why?
A. I love helping clients buy products. I enjoy the challenge of helping assess hair problems and finding a good product solution!
Q: What are your two favorite products, and why?
A. Currently, my favorite products are UNITE's Session Whip and Go365 hairspray. The Session Whip is a great base for volume and the Go365 lets me choose how much hold I want/need.
Q: How would you describe your personal style/niche?
A. My style, for a girl, is really simple! I like clean, classic lines in my clothing and tend to gravitate towards a neutral look with just a pop of color- usually in my jewelry! I like a natural look which translates to my hair and makeup choices too.

Q:What is your number one beauty tip?
A. ALWAYS MOISTURIZE. It's a simple rule but your face will thank you for using an SPF and a simple moisturizer later in life!

Q: What is your favorite quote?
A. "There will come a time when you believe that everything is finished. That will be the beginning." Always try to embrace change, it's just the next chapter of your life.
Let me share with you some of the awesome things our team members had to say about Sarah--
Susannah: "Sarah so quickly and seamlessly became a part of our team when she joined us last year. She's so easy to work with! She's considerate, thoughtful, creative, and a lot of fun to be around."
Shandy: "Sarah is an excellent receptionist and friend. She stays on top of all the day-to-day tasks of the salon to make sure that the stylists are taken care of. She also genuinely cares about the clients and wants to give them the best experience possible, from their first phone call or email to their checkout. Above all, she is a great friend, who is always ready to listen and give advice."
Shanti: "It has been a pleasure getting to know Sarah. I really can appreciate her special way of dealing with each and every client as an individual. The way she remembers tiny details about each and every one of them really sets her apart in my book, because that kind attention to detail is hard to find. She is very considerate when booking clients, making sure to accommodate as much as possible, while still making sure the stylist is well aware of each circumstance! She is a fun person to be around and have a good laugh with!"
Eric-Michael: "Sarah is funny, sweet, and kind-hearted. She is always willing to help out in a pinch. It is so important to get to know our clients on a more personal level, and I really appreciate that she takes that to heart and truly takes the time to ask them how they are doing, or how their vacation was. It has been great having her on the team."
Jessie: "It's great that Sarah's bright and bubbly face is the first you see when you walk in the door at La Bella! She is my right hand man and keeps me straight 99% of the time. I can't tell you how many compliments I hear everyday from our guests who commend her on her positivity, helpfulness, and professionalism. It speaks more volume coming from you that I could even say myself!"
I think we are all in agreement that Sarah is such a great asset to the team!
