My favorite part about my job is getting to know people and making them feel beautiful! I knew I wanted to be a hairdresser when I was in preschool. A boy and I went around the snack table and gave everyone a "bang trim" the day before picture day! So with that said if there is a picture day in the near future I'd be more than happy to do your hair!

SENIOR STYLIST

Licensed since 2004

I grew up in the Seattle area, where I attended Shoreline Cosmetology 

School. After becoming licensed I landed a job at one of Seattle's top salons. Going through their advanced training program I learned Vidal Sasoons method of precision cutting as well as extensive training in color. Wanting more sunshine, I moved to Nevada County and have loved being a part of the Bel Capelli team. The best part of my job is being able to identify your face shape and skin tone to customize a cut and color that will suit you and highlight your best features. Every client is unique and beautiful, so my goal is to send you out feeling that way.

MASSAGE THERAPIST

Licensed since 2010

I have recently returned home to Nevada City after a long adventure in Southern California where I cultivated an expansive knowledge of the physical and spiritual body. I have learned through touch that we are facilitators of healing. I believe massage is preventative medicine. My goal is to allow each client to inhabit their body and with assistance through bodywork for them to allow the healer within to activate and self organize. My strongest focus and desire lies simply with helping others. I am grateful to be able to assist you in finding better health, muscle function, and comfort in your body. I look forward to connecting with you and helping you achieve your fullest potential.

APPRENTICE

Since 2019

It is with deep gratitude that I regard this opportunity of becoming an integral part of this team of strong, talented supportive artists here at Bel Capelli.

My appreciation for cultivating the beauty that surrounds us and invoking that which comes from within will continue to be a strong intention of mine. An artist by nature, and my desire to facilitate the experience of transformation through self care the beauty way is my inspiration.

Since becoming an apprentice this past year I am reminded every day what a gift it is to receive the connection in working with others to feeling uplifted in their perception of themselves.

I have always loved creating beauty with my hands and the energy work in grounding oneself through presence. By becoming a hairstylist I get to share that unique part of this process of co-creation by listening to the needs of each individual. It is within this approach that each person may achieve the look and feeling that is desired.

Alexandra Lee

SENIOR STYLIST/ESTHETICIAN

Since 2010

My life path is serving people, sharing unique gifts, talents and making people see how beautiful they are inside and out. I was fortunate enough to grow up in the beauty industry. My Mother, a licensed Aesthetician, was destined to be a part of this community of talented individuals. I spent many weekends at a young age being either a subject for the students to practice on or was an observer and I quickly became very fascinated in the beauty industry.

In my early twenties I attended cosmetology school and the aesthetician program graduating in 2010. What I love about this industry is the people and the connections I make, all while providing a service where clients needs are met, and to achieve their desired look. My goal is to make you feel relaxed, comfortable and educated on your specific needs for hair and skin. I am a firm believer in health, wellness and transforming beauty from inside and out. It is a lifestyle and self care is so important to every single individual.
