Gina Timpanaro
Hair Stylist
Originally from Long Island, NY, I have called Charleston home for seven years. My path to hair began with a variety of ventures including Art School, professional fashion shows and participation in movies. I obtained my degree in Cosmetology from Charleston’s Cosmetology Institute and I continue my education with Paul Mitchell classes on the latest styles and trends to keep a fresh edge. I love getting to know my clients and building their confidence with creative cuts and great color. In my spare time I love going to the beach and hanging out with my son, Milo.

I have always had a natural obsession with hair since I was younger. I was born and raised in Newport, TN and have lived in Charleston for the past six years and over that time I obtained a degree at the College of Charleston in Theatre, in addition to getting a Cosmetology Degree at Charleston Cosmetology Institute in March of 2007. I feel like I have my hands in every thing here at Bellezza, including helping out with Nail Care, however my true passion is in hair color and getting to know all of our clients. In my spare time I am a Free Lance Stage Manager.
Brittany Linder

Born and raised on James Island I have been doing hair in some way, shape or form for friends and family since I was a child. I have only been apart of the Bellezza family now fa year, but since then my passion for hair has only grown. I strive to perfect hair cuts and grab the opportunity to take new cutting classes. I graduated from the Charleston Cosmetology Institute in April of 2007 with a degree in cosmetology. I consider myself a team player often assisting our full service spa in nail care. My goals are to master the art of color and to challenge myself with Bridal Up-dos.
