about me.

I’m originally from a small town in Northeastern Pennsylvania, where my passion for art, fashion, and creativity first blossomed. As a child, I dreamed of one day owning my own business, and I’m proud to say that dream is now a reality!

I graduated from Indiana University with a focus on business and art, and after college, I pursued my love for beauty by attending Tricoci University of Beauty Culture. It didn’t take long for me to fall in love with the technical and artistic aspects of hair cutting and coloring. After graduating in 2015, I honed my skills as an apprentice at a salon in New York City before returning to Richmond, where I continued my career at a local salon.

When I’m not behind the chair, you can find me spending time outdoors with my sweet dog, Luca, exploring new restaurants, or traveling to new places. I’m constantly inspired by the world around me, and I bring that energy and creativity into everything I do.

what the babes are saying…

"Sara is AMAZING!! When I first came to Sara, my hair was extremely damaged from lots of blonding and past stylist mistakes. Since coming to Sara last year, my hair has grown so much, feels fuller and overall just looks so much healthier. Not only is she incredible at what she does, but makes you feel so comfortable in her chair and I feel like I'm catching up with my bestie while there. ALSO, Sara gave me the extensions of my dreams that I get so many compliments on. I'm so thankful for her and recommend her to literally everyone I know. 1000/10 recommend!!

— Kelsey
"SARA IS THE BEST! I went in because of a recommendation from another blonde friend of mine and Sara immediately made me feel welcomed and safe. I had just moved back to Richmond and was looking for a new stylist to be my go-to and after going, I knew she would take good care of my hair and be my person. She listens to your wants while also providing her wisdom. Can't wait to see her again so soon!

— Addi
"Sara is the best. I had a terrible (traumatic) haircut at another salon about a year before I found the courage to go get it fixed. A friend of mine recommended Sara and I am so glad I went!! She was SO understanding of my new haircut anxiety and did a thorough consultation before the cut so she knew exactly what I wanted. She did a killer job, and I will definitely be back!"

— Maggie
Sara is amazing and not only listens but really hears her clients! She has create an amazing environment and produces confidence building hair for her clients! So thankful to have had the opportunity to be a client of Sara’s!

— Bridget
"Sara is amazing in every way possible! I’ve been seeing her for a few months and have nothing but wonderful things to say! She is personable, patient, charismatic, genuine, and so sweet. She truly cares about her clients and wants you to achieve the best, most healthiest hair possible! She’s the best friend you never knew you needed! Sara is one in a million and my go-to for hair! I have extremely curly hair, and am so thankful she can take this mane! Thanks Sara for ALL that you do!"

— Ari
"I have really coarse, curly (frizzy!) hair. I’ve had more bad haircuts in my life than I can count—but Sara is the BEST. She knows exactly how to cut my hair, listens to my input, and I end up with great curls and a good shape. I always get compliments at work and even from strangers in stores."

— Sally
"Sara is amazing and incredibly kind! She is a true artist and values her work & clients. 1000/10, I highly recommend!"

— Cassie
“I first came to Sara to fix an ugly balayage that I had received from another salon, I liked her right away and her honesty made me trust her and feel comfortable. She did an amazing job correcting my color and styled my hair with a product that brought out the natural curl I didn’t know I had! After 5 years of bouncing from stylist to stylist I finally found my girl and definitely recommend her!”

— Amy
"I recently went to see Sara to have hair extensions put in, and not only did she put them in super quick, there was no pain, no lifting, and they look incredible. I have a very sensitive scalp and fine hair, and I could barely feel her installing them, and again, ZERO pain. I have had all of those issues with previous stylists so I am very excited that they finally feel right and they are so secure. i have gotten so many compliments already about how natural they look and how well my natural hair blends with the extensions. She curled my hair afterwards and my style is still in tact 4 days later, which I have never had before, so that’s a huge bonus. If I could give her more than 5 stars, I would. 11/10, she is amazing!!! Go see her!!!"

— Rachael
“Sara is an incredible hair stylist (so much so, that I’ve changed salons to continue having her do my hair). She’s very kind, and is always available to give me hair tips (and advise on products to use). On top of that, she always styles my hair nicely, which is what I look forward to most. I would highly recommend her for any of your hair needs. :)”

— Elizabeth
“Sara is a true talent! Passionate about her art, highly skilled, an excellent listener - these qualities combine to make Sara a master colorist, cutter, and stylist. I had been searching for someone to not only fix my botched color, but to help me love my hair again. Sara did just that. I highly recommend her!”

— Carrie
“Sara is by far the BEST stylist I’ve ever had! I’ve never had the one stylist or place I’ve always stuck with until I met Sara and I’ll definitely be seeing her for life! She has done balayage and cuts for me and each time it’s great and my hair looks and feels amazing💕”

— Brook
“My hair is very unruly and Sara tames it and makes it sleek and shiny. She is very focused and asks the right questions so the end results are more than I would expect. Cut, color, blowout AMAZING”

— Carmella
“It takes a while for us women to find a hair stylist we really love. You go from salon to salon looking for the perfect girl. Sara is that perfect girl. She knew exactly what I didn’t know I wanted 😊😊 she takes the time to listen to what you really want and is able to recommend what she thinks would fit you best. She also helped me find my new favorite shampoo which made a world of difference on my hair overall!! Plus she’s super laid back and easy to talk to! Highly recommend!”

— Talia
"I have been going to Sara for several years now. She’s the best hairstylist I’ve had! She doesn’t push anything and listens to what I desire for my hair to be!

I highly recommend going to Sara if you want someone who’s honest, talented and awesome all-around!"

— Jamie
"Sara is the absolute best! She has been doing my hair( cut/color/eyebrows) for years now. Sara is an extremely talented stylist and is highly attentive to detail. My hair is pretty thick and Sara is the only person who is able to cut it perfectly each time. She also always has ideas for my hair when I can’t make up my mind or don’t know the latest trends! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!:)"

— Lorraine
"I found Sara when I was on the hunt for a stylist to fix my hair, and boy am I lucky to have found her. She fixed the color and it was beautiful. She has also cut and styled my hair and done the cezanne treatment. I feel relaxed when I’m in her chair because I know she’s listened to what I want and she’s excellent at what she does, making hair beautiful! Every time I leave her salon I feel like a brand new woman. If you’re looking for a new stylist, look no further."

— Ariella
"Sara has been cutting my hair for over year. She is probably the best hairdresser that I have ever had cut my extremely curly hair. She is also one best counselors of life too. You leave with a terrific haircut and worry free! :)"

— Soren
"Sara is the stylist and friend I didn’t know I needed! She is passionate about her work and is truly so talented. I visited Sara’s salon for the first time over the Summer as an extension and color client. I’ve had my fair share of unhappy experiences at other salons, so searching for a brand new stylist was a little nerve wracking. Sara has always went out of her way to make me feel comfortable and genuinely listens to all of my hair preferences and concerns. I always leave Sara’s salon feeling so confident and fully satisfied with my hair. I actually look forward to my appointments with Sara and will be a forever client as long as she will have me! :)"

— Taylor
"I recently had a great experience with Sara at her salon. She gave me stunning highlights, a perfect haircut, and a keratin treatment that left my hair silky and manageable. Her attention to detail, expert advice, and warm demeanor created a fantastic experience. I highly recommend her for anyone seeking a hair transformation (or even a simple trim) that will leave you feeling confident and beautiful."

— Olga
"Sara is a fantastic hair stylist. She knows how to do everything - cut, color and straighten my hair without potentially harmful chemicals that other salons use. She attends conferences to learn about new techniques and products, so she can keep up with hair styling trends.Plus, she’s really nice! Update: Sara just changed my hair color a bit, and it’s fantastic. She is a master with hair color and styling!"

— Judy
"Sara is the absolute best stylist I have experience in Richmond. She is so passionate about her craft. She even makes sure that I’m happy with the results every time (which spoiler alert… always am) LOOK AT THESE PHOTOS. She did that!! Book with her, you wont regret it."

— Daniella
"Sara gave me such a beautiful cut today! I was worried about losing length because I've been growing out an old shag with lots of chunky layers. Sara took off the perfect amount to get it healthy again, without sacrificing length, and into a shape that will look amazing styled or not. This is my first time with Sara and I couldn't be happier! I feel like I've finally found my person to help me with my long (slow growing) hair journey."
