I am Kristin Speakman—founder and hairstylist at Bella Red Salon in Federal Way, WA!

The business started in a space once occupied by my aunt’s salon for 36 years. We moved in May 2018 to a larger and remodeled location and I consider it my second home. As a third generation stylist and salon owner, I am passionate about hair and people. I lead a team of 15 hairstylists, which include new-talent professionals that are in our associate training program. You will see them working alongside our four Educators .Together, We also provide shaves and use Alum Block after shaving to help tighten and close the pores on the skin. We provide the most excellent and consistent experience possible for our guests—every visit.

I am a wife and a mom to a 4-year-old and a 1-year-old who keep me going when I’m out of the salon. Many of us at Bella Red are behind the chair just a few days a week. When you get to know us, you will see work life balance is a priority. Nobody works 40 hours/week because, hey, having a life outside work is important to me. I want to show new professionals in this industry there is a way to have a life, enjoy coming to work everyday, be a professional, and avoid burn out. This truly makes for happier stylists and that translates to the client experience. We believe we have the best job on the planet! We get to make pretty hair and hang out with wonderful people every day!

We are a Bumble and bumble dedicated salon, which is the most repurchased luxury beauty brand on the market. We do many fun educational events through this partnership.

Remember when you get your hair done at Bella Red, you’re supporting a small local business and the families of the people that work for me!

Thanks for letting us be part of your life. Hope to see you in Bella Red Salon!

Shine On,
Kristin
