Meet the owner
Hilary Sanchez
Hello, my name is Hilary! I am the proud owner of Bella & Company Salon. My love for the Beauty Industry began when I was a little girl in my mother's salon. I guess you can say “like mother, like daughter.” My career began in 1997 as a manicurist at James Dastra, and I then worked as a assistant to Tammy Sites at La Chic Boutique. From 1998 to 2002, Tammy taught me a lot about the industry, and she also taught me hair color. I am truly thankful for the knowledge she shared with me. I became a educator for Artec and Wella. In 2002, I began working at New Creation's by Dawn.
In 2006, I accomplished one of my biggest goals when I opened Bella de Salon! Through the years, my salon has grown in size, clientele, and the number of stylists, but one thing has stayed the same…the love and passion I have for the beauty industry! A new vision led me to create " Bella & Company Salon" in 2020, and I am excited for what the future holds for my amazing team as together, we create outstanding services and exceptional customer service for our clientele.
My specialty is hair color; it's one of the ways I can be an artist and create amazing looks for my clients. One of the most important things as a stylist and salon owner is to offer myself and my team continuous education. I pride myself on staying current with the ever-changing techniques, technology, and the latest trends in the beauty industry.
I'm here to be the best leader I can be. I'm here to support my team and hold them accountable so that each of them can reach their fullest potential. This is my main goal and I'm determined to make it happen.
Along with my family of Bella Beauties, I am blessed with three beautiful children and a very supportive husband. When I"m not at the salon you will find me at a field hockey, soccer, football, baseball, basketball game or at a track meet. My favorite thing is spending time with my family and friends and walking my dog Chase (a havapoo). No matter how busy my life might get, I make it a point to slow down and be present in each moment. This helps me to find the perfect balance and appreciate the beauty and simplicity that life has to offer.
"The Bella Experience that our client's receive from the amazing Bella Team, is what makes Bella & Company Salon truly successful." -Hilary
