Meet Bella
After growing up in the Chicagoland area I moved to Chicago just 2 weeks after graduating high school, I knew the big city was where I needed to be. I dreamed of finding a career that would allow me to live a life full of love, fun and creativity. I thought it was crazy that I had to decide what I wanted to do for the rest of my life at 18 years old, so I decided to go to beauty school, "for now".
Doing hair came naturally to me and I instantly grew a passion for making people feel their best. I realized this career was way more than just doing hair and as I started making connections with the guests in my chair, I was hooked! I started building my clientele a decade ago and I consider my guests that started with me like family now.
I'm the oldest of 4, the only girl, and am wired with a leader mentality. I wouldn't say that I knew I always wanted to own a salon, but after working for a salon that didn't have any options of promotion in place I was getting stir crazy and needed something more. When I set my mind to something, I can't be told no and I don't stop until I have it!
At 23 years old I decided I needed to start my own business and 2 months later, at 24 years old, I opened Salon Glow Chicago.
I love educating myself on all the newest hair trends and sharing ALL of my experiences with my staff. On the side, I also enjoy coaching stylists and helping them find their own path to success. I always preach that there are enough people in Chicago for all of us to be successful and I truly believe that helping others and giving them that push they need to follow their dreams brings me good karma.
My guests call me "the foil queen" because I apply so many foils in their hair in such a fast, but precise manner. I LOVE blondes and I pride myself on making the blonde look as if it's growing from your scalp.
When you are in my chair, expect to have a great time and to be educated on how to maintain the glowing look you leave with. Don't hesitate to ask about appointment bookings outside of our scheduled business hours, I love taking earlier appointments!
