Linda Steinhaus
General Manager
The Lash Lounge Coppell – S. Denton Tap and Sandy Lake Rds.
“Receiving this award is incredibly meaningful because it reflects the culture and team we have built together. My passion as a servant-hearted leader is to empower others to thrive and become the best they can be. I’m grateful to work alongside a team that values hard work, excellence, service, and genuine care for one another and our guests. Together, we strive to bring beauty, peace, joy, and encouragement into people’s lives every day.”
Chantel Morales
Assistant General Manager
The Lash Lounge Happy Valley – Christilla Commons, Hillsboro – Streets of Tanasbourne, Lake Oswego – Windward, Portland – Bethany Village and Portland – NW 23rd
“During my interview with The Lash Lounge back in 2021, I was asked about my leadership style. I said, ‘A great leader makes other great leaders.’ That belief has guided me every day since. I’m committed to helping my team grow—not just into great lash artists, but into great leaders in the beauty industry and in the world of customer care. To me, greatness isn’t just about mastering a skill—it’s also about how we treat each other: with respect, empathy and genuine care. I feel incredibly fortunate to work alongside people who challenge me, inspire me, and remind me that we’re all in this together. Every role here matters. Every person matters. And I’m proud to grow in a place where greatness is a shared journey. ”

“Creating a positive work culture is essential for the success and well-being of my team. It leads to higher job satisfaction, increased productivity, and lower turnover rates. I am fortunate to work with such talented and committed individuals who inspire me every day. This achievement would not have been possible without the dedication and hard work of everyone on our team. I am committed to continuing to lead and support our team to the best of my abilities and to contribute to the ongoing success and growth of our salons.”
