OUR MISSION AND PHILOSOPHY
Redefining the salon experience
We opened our doors in a modest 900 square foot space on October 1, 2009. Our team spent 6 years working hard in the original space growing our brand and furthering our recognition in the community.
In October 2015, we made the huge leap to renovate a 3,800 square ft historic building in Olde Towne Slidell, Louisiana. With the new expansion came new services and team members. This year, we will be celebrating our seventh year on Carey Street.

For 7 years, I have had the pleasure of being a member of the badass standards Bella has created in this industry. Bella has helped make me who I am today and helped instill the same core values that it has into my own life. I am so invested into each one of our team members and their careers. We are a people-first salon and give high-end results, so I am committed to always elevating what Bella brings to our guests and delivering exceptional experiences to you.

Lorrie Kauwe
Our sweet Lorrie lost her battle to cancer in November 2020. She forever changed our lives and The Bella Girls will never forget Lorrie.
It is our mission to carry on Lorrie Kauwe’s name and legacy. Being a hairstylist was her passion, and it made her so happy. We wanted to honor her by creating this foundation to help provide financial aid to individuals who are deciding to attend cosmetology school. We are working closely with the Aveda Institutes to ensure that 100% of these donations are distributed to the students most in need.
Our dream one day, is to have the Lorrie Kauwe Foundation grow bigger than we can possibly imagine, and provide a full-tuition for a cosmetology student. We know that would make her heart light up so much.
