Beauty by Rochelle Hair Salon
From a young age, Rochelle knew she was going to be an entrepreneur and opening up her own business was what she wanted to do. She found a passion for hair and styling at the young age of 14. It wasn’t until later on that she excitedly decided to pursue it as a career path and attend school for Cosmetology. During school, she opened up her own salon and had a stylist use the space in the meantime. In May of 2002, Beauty by Rochelle was born. After becoming a Licensed Cosmetologist, she went straight to work for herself and didn’t look back. She enjoyed working and when people left her chair with a smile, she knew her work had a purpose.
