Sara Crane- Junior Stylist (accepting new clients)

Sara found her passion for hairstyling while working in the fashion industry in Japan. She graduated beauty school in 2003, was on the Artistic Team at 7 Salon in Seattle and Bellevue, then found her way to Stan’s Maple Valley location, just after it opened in 2006. She has always had a love for travel and seeing new places, which took her to living in San Francisco for 10 years, doing hair in the Mission and Castro neighborhoods, giving her the ability to expand and explore her creative hairdressing skills. She has attended several haircutting classes at Bumble and Bumble and Tony and Guy in New York, Vidal Sassoon in Los Angeles and Kevin Murphy in Portland. She continues her color education with Wella and Goldwell and is certified in Brazilian Blowouts. Sara’s constant curiosity to learn and expand her knowledge in the hair industry, has led her to becoming Stan’s Men’s Hair Piece Stylist in Bellevue.
