The Woman Behind The Brand
Marissa Howland is the founder of Salon Lola Bella, a private luxury hair studio dedicated to helping women look radiant, feel confident, and experience true transformation from the inside out.
With more than 25 years of professional experience behind the chair, Marissa has built a reputation for exceptional color artistry, personalized client care, and an unwavering commitment to ongoing education.
Since opening her studio in 2011, her mission has remained clear:
to create dream hair while empowering women to step into their highest, most confident selves.
The Evolution of Beauty
Marissa’s approach to beauty was profoundly reshaped by her own personal health journey.
After experiencing significant weight loss and committing to a lifestyle focused on healing, strength, and longevity, she began to recognize a deeper truth:
Hair health is not simply cosmetic.
It is connected to metabolism, inflammation, hormones, nutrition, and cellular wellness.
This realization inspired her to expand beyond traditional hair services and begin integrating a more holistic philosophy into her work.
Today, Salon Lola Bella reflects this evolution — blending luxury artistry with education around scalp health, lifestyle habits, and advanced wellness strategies that support sustainable beauty.
A Modern Approach to Hair & Wellness
Marissa believes that the future of beauty lies in addressing root causes rather than masking symptoms.
Through her signature Healthy Hair Project, she helps women better understand how internal wellness influences:
• hair growth and density
• scalp balance
• skin vitality
• energy and confidence
• overall aging and longevity
She also provides guidance and education around emerging innovations in regenerative health — including access to physician-guided peptide therapies through trusted telehealth partnerships.
This modern approach allows her clients to feel supported not only in their appearance, but in their overall well-being.
The Experience
Clients who work with Marissa can expect a deeply personalized, high-touch experience rooted in both artistry and intention.
Her studio environment is designed to feel elevated, calming, and transformative — a place where women can reconnect with themselves while achieving exceptional hair results.
Marissa’s goal is simple:
To help every woman leave her chair feeling more confident, more aligned, and more empowered than when she arrived.
Beyond the Chair
In addition to her work in the salon, Marissa is passionate about educating women through digital resources, wellness programs, and community support focused on inside-out beauty and long-term vitality.
She continues to expand her vision for Salon Lola Bella — including the upcoming launch of a luxury Scalp Spa experience designed to support relaxation, restoration, and follicle health at the highest level.
