.‘'Vintage hair is great for all hair textures... bring roller sets back they last so much longer than a blow out’’ says Sarah suite owner of Bad Gouls in San Diego where she creates private 1:1 experiences for her clients. Aside for her obsession with Vinatage hair she is also a Vivid artist known for rainbow hair!
Sarah was a self-proclaimed "weird kid’’ into 40s + 50s movies and could be heard saying to her friends ‘’come here you’re going to look like Lucielle ball’’. In beauty school she wanted to do film/tv vintage hair but in school realized how much fun color is from Vivid to natural!
Prior to doing hair Sarah served 12 years in the Navy, thank you for your Service!!!! Now, she give’s back to her local community through Punks for Change and Sidewalk Project!
HAIR HISTORY:
3 years professionally doing hair after attended school in San Diego then started as an assistant/commission, then worked at Ulta for a year (and during pandemic). It was such a good experience she wished she went straight there.!! They give you biz cards and she wrote her IG on back of every card and handed card to people in store!
