Sarah spent a few months at Everett Beauty Academy, then transferred to Northwest Hair Academy graduating in August of '03. She then landed her first hair design job at Regis in the Everett Mall. She spent 3 1/2 years there. This is also where she first met Lorry, who she then transitioned with to an independant salon in Lake Stevens. Her sense of humor is apparent as she discusses her roots, "I grew up in Everett and still live in Everett. I have actually never lived outside of Everett. I need to get out more!" As is common with Elle Marie's stylists, Sarah's interest in hair design has been a lifelong passion. "I have loved doing hair for as long as I can remember. I did my sister's hair for her wedding in 1998 and everyone thought she had it done in a salon. I feel I have always had a knack for hair." Sarah loves spending time with her boyfriend and 5-year-old daughter. In her limited spare time, Sarah has taken up knitting and also loves a good book, preferrably love stories. She also enjoys get-togethers with her friends and "letting lose" a little. When asked about her goals, Sarah explains, "I would love to become a VERY successful hairstylist and make enough money to only have to work part-time. I really want to see the world, especially Ireland and Italy. I would also like to see Iceland because that is where my family is from." Sarah considers her specialty to be color, but laughs when she states, "I love coloring and foiling hair the most. Cutting's not bad either. I like everything."
"Thank you so so much for seeing me on such short notice. I certainly didn't expect you to "fix" my "mishap" at the same time, but you did and I am very grateful!! It looks so much better and I feel so much better! :) Looking forward to a long relationship. :)"

"Sorry it has taken so long, but attached are pictures from Megan's haircut for Locks of Love on December 28th. The cute haircut Sarah did has encouraged Megan to spend more time styling her hair, and she absolutely loves it! Thank you so much for all you did--we have definitely been telling people about your wonderful, friendly service!"

"Just a quick note to say a big Thank You for my fabulous foil/color last weekend. I was in Seattle visiting family and my sister-in-law set up an appointment with you for me. I am loving my new color! (I just wish I could style it like you did.) I will definitely be back to see you when we visit family again in September."

"I just got my haircut last night by Sarah and she mentioned that my Locks of Love photo was up on the website and so I went on today to check it out. Very impressive website! Sarah, I love my hair and it really needed a nice cut since it had been a while. I really love coming into the salon, Sarah is so sweet and really listens to what I'm saying (even when it doesn't make much sense between my rambling). Have a wonderful summer and can't wait to see you in August"
~ Sara R. - New York, NY (E-mail to Sarah and Jody on 4/29/08.)
