Sarah Mitchell
Artistic Director + Owner
With over 23 years of experience in the beauty industry, I’ve had the incredible opportunity to establish myself as a leading figure in high-end hair design. As the proud owner of Elevate Beauty Lounge, I combine my passion for creativity with a commitment to excellence, ensuring that my clients receive unparalleled service and stunning results.
My journey in hairdressing began at an early age. After honing my skills in top salons, I decided to launch my own. Over the years, my dedication to the craft has earned me a loyal clientele and several awards, including Top 200 by Salon Today. My expertise spans a variety of styles, from chic modern cuts to luxurious color treatments, and I strive to make sure each client leaves feeling confident and beautiful.
At Elevate Beauty Lounge, I’ve created a welcoming oasis where clients can indulge in a personalized experience tailored to their unique needs. I believe in the power of education and continuously seek out the latest trends and techniques, regularly attending workshops and industry events to stay at the forefront of the evolving beauty landscape for not only myself but my team as well.
Beyond my technical skills, I pride myself on my warm personality and my ability to connect with clients on a personal level. I take the time to listen to their desires and concerns, making every appointment a collaborative experience. My commitment to quality and client satisfaction is reflected in the salon’s stylish ambiance and in the talented team I’ve assembled, all of whom share my vision of excellence.
When I’m not at the salon, I enjoy spending time with my family and traveling. My love for beauty extends beyond the chair, as I love to mentor aspiring stylists.
Whether you’re looking for a transformative cut, a radiant color, or simply a moment of relaxation, I invite you to experience the art of hair like never before at Elevate Beauty Lounge!

Alex Harriot
Stylist
Hi, I’m Alex! I’ve been with Elevate my entire career, and I had the privilege of training under the owner, Sarah. As someone with curly hair myself, I’m passionate about working with curls. I also specialize in balayages, highlights, and all kinds of color. Here at Elevate, we prioritize continuing education. It allows us to bring fresh ideas to the salon and staying educated means I can personalize each client’s experience to their unique needs. I’m currently accepting new clients, and I can’t wait to help you achieve your hair goals.

Hannah Crippen
Stylist
Hi! I’m Hannah! I began my career at another salon but found my true home at Elevate Beauty Lounge due to the amazing culture and the incredible team. I had the privilege of assisting Sarah, our owner and seasoned stylist, which helped me build a strong foundation in my craft. I’m always eager to grow and improve, which is why I’ve taken a variety of classes to keep up with the latest techniques–whether it’s cutting, styling, or color formulation. I absolutely love creating lived-in colors like balayages, but I also enjoy dabbling in vivid, bold shades for those who want something a little more fun! And guess what? I’m currently accepting new clients, and my chair is waiting for you! When I’m not at the salon, you’ll probably find me working on fun new projects or at the gym, staying active and inspired. I’m all about bringing joy to my work and building connections with every client who I get the pleasure of serving!
