Stacy’s Sola journey began like so many of our beauty pros. She is a holistic esthetician who found herself constantly working to establish herself with no time leftover for herself or her young daughter, Olivia. And that’s when she decided it was time to work for herself and be in control of her schedule. Now, Stacy has the ability to provide the services she wants with the products she loves on her own time!

"I always knew I would flourish once I became a Sola boss. Being part of Sola helped to connect me with the right people. My colleagues believed in me and what I had to offer... which in turn, helped me to believe in myself.”

“When opening my new studio, I wanted the space to feel different from other salons I’ve experienced in the past… I wanted my studio to be bright, fun, and exciting. I wanted it to be me!
I kept saying my inspiration is 70s, meets Dolly Parton, meets Barbie Dream House. And can I say, I think I killed it!
Now, I know some clients prefer a relaxing experience, so I built in back lighting. That way, I can shut the lights off during shampoo times, and set the vibe.
That’s why I love being in a Sola studio. I can create a space for my clients, and I to enjoy. I can create a space that’s totally me!” - Lindsey Couch () Face of Sola
