✨ More Than a Haircut

While at the salon, youth will meet Veronica Amendola, owner of BBV Salon, and hear how she turned her passion into a thriving business. She’ll share her entrepreneurial journey and introduce youth to the many career paths in the beauty industry—from hairstyling and barbering to salon ownership and entrepreneurship.


✨ Meet Veronica Amendola

Veronica Amendola’s journey embodies resilience, growth, and the power of embracing adversity. From a teenage mother to a successful businesswoman, Veronica’s story is a testament to determination and the transformative power of hard work.

After nearly 20 years working for another salon, Veronica made the courageous decision to step outside her comfort zone and open her own business in 2008.
