Linda Sabovik
Linda, or LJ as most of her clientele call her, has been in the hair biz for over 50 years – if you count Barbies and baby dolls. Linda practically grew up with a scissors in her hands. She was compelled at even an early age to style, cut and color her dolls’ hair. When high school rolled around, it seemed like the natural thing to do to go to Cosmetology school. She’s been working with the families of Chesterland ever since – initially at Images Hair Salon and ultimately on her own, opening Snip, Clip & Polish in 2004.
Linda is an avid animal lover and has volunteered at The Cleveland Metroparks Zoo and the Geauga Dog Warden. Many charitable organizations are close to Linda’s heart, as she supports many and often participates in walks/runs. By the way, there is an open invitation every June to join Team Snip, Clip & Polish as they support The Gathering Place’s “Race for the Place”.
Linda loves her clientele and opened Snip, Clip & Polish so she never felt like she had to “work” another day.
Favorite hairstyle of all time: Meg Ryan’s texturized wavy cut
Celebrity that you wish you could make over: Donald Trump!
Worst hairstyle you ever tried yourself: A pixie cut my mom had done on me in the 6th grade. I looked like Captain Kangaroo!
Tried and true haircare tip that any woman can do: Even if you’re growing your hair out, trim your hair regularly. It looks healthier and it will grow faster. Also, hair color and highlights really do give your hair extra body.
What food/fruit/veg do you put on your hair? I don’t really use fruits or veggies on my hair. Like everyone else, I used to add lemon to water and spray it on my hair in the summer. Doesn’t that count?
