In 2024, Richelle stepped down as owner of Solo Capelli, handing the keys over to Francesco Micell, who has done an amazing job of creating a welcoming, updated hair studio. This transition has allowed Richelle to focus on her studio guests and her many outside interests.
Specializing in believable + wearable haircolor- natural looking gray coverage and healthy, beautiful highlighted blondes- are Richelle’s areas of expertise. You can find her in the studio Tuesday thru Thursday.
