ABOUT NATALIE BOLANOS
OWNER & SPECIALIST HAIR HAND TIED EXTENTIONS
Natalia Bolanos also known as Natalia Rosa always knew that she was born to share the sky with stars alike. Raised in California Orange County, the New York born Musician and Hair Stylist became inspired by New York’s fashion industry to go into beauty school – juggling beauty school with getting her High School Diploma. At age 17, Natalia became a licensed Hair Stylist and has been working in the hair industry for more than 20 years since then.
After graduating high school in 1997, Miss Rosa joined an all-girl band which toured countries, holding music concerts in collaboration with bands like MXPX, Rancid, Good Charlotte, Flogging Molly and even joined the WARP tour. Natalia’s first major break would come when she earned a Gold Record alongside Lindsey Lohan for the soundtrack of the 2003 movie Freaky Friday–which was scaffold for her guest appearance on Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
With Travis Barker on the drums,Natalia made a follow up major break by playing bass for Rihanna in her video Rock Star. Amidst music tours and guest appearances,Natalia visited several cities like London and NewYork (where she was born) and got hairstyle inspirations which assisted in her position as Hair Stylist for tons of famous musicians while on the road.Then she quit music to train with Bumble and Bumble, Aveda and Toni&Guy.
In 2007, Natalia Bolanos decided to focus on her talent as a Hair Stylist and started doing Hair & Makeup for commercials and photo shoots for high profile clients like Huntington Whitney. This purpose was taken top notch in 2013, after Miss Rosa had her son Truman. By this time, she had moved aroundhair salons in California which ended up reducing her faith in the hair business.
She became depressed and her lack of mentor ship in the industry did not help matters. After having Truman, Natalia got a professional camera, opened an Instagram account (amidst mockery from other stylists in the salon she worked ), and began posting pictures of the various hairstyles she had designed. In 2015,
Natalia left the salon and opened her cooperative salon. Recognizing that she had very little knowledge in business, Natalia started taking classes with other stylist before she began doing her own classes. Currently receiving training to be National Educator for Jack Winn Pro Hair Colour, and for Beaded sewn row with creator, Lena Ritz. Miss Rosa now mentors over hundreds of girls and connects them with other mentors in the industry.
