Sarah Jones is a maven at mixing eras. Whether she’s borrowing from glam old Hollywood or emulating Rosie the Riveter, her look always demands attention. A childhood love of classic movies fueled her desire to hunt for vintage at estate sales and local stores so she could replicate the style of her favorite stars. As a stylist, she helps others discover their own path to individuality – something she has clearly mastered herself!
Your style is definitely reminiscent of a certain era. When did you start crafting this look?
It’s a mix from 20s- 50s with bit of modern here and there. I have always loved vintage and I used to go to estate sales with my grandma. All of the ladies in my family had great style, each with their own flair. I have been inspired by hair styles and fashion from old movies since I was little. The first time I wore red lipstick was my freshman year in high school and I was hooked, although it took a while to really own it.
Where are your favorite local places to acquire new clothes and accessories?
I have enjoyed thrift store shopping since I was in jr. high, and as I mentioned estate sales are a great place to find treasures as well. Vintage is tough. To find pieces you love that actually fit, you need to develop an eye for what works for your shape. Locally, I really love Amy’s Allie (located at 3146 Markway Rd, Toledo, OH 43606) which just opened this year in Cricket West, literally two doors down from my salon!
As a hairstylist, how do you help people discover their own personal style?
I really try to help people feel beautiful within their styling capabilities. Not everyone feels they have the ability to work with their own hair, so I try to encourage them and educate them on what works as well as options they may not have considered. Listening to your guests’ needs and wants helps make them look and feel their best.
What’s the best compliment you’ve ever received on an outfit?
I was told I had classic beauty and I reminded them of their grandma when she was young. It’s fun to wear clothes that remind people of fond memories.
