"Violet, you're turning violet!"
We sure are, and we aren't looking back! 💜💜💜
I've been waiting for the day a fashion colour came to my chair and today was that day! 🙌
This incredible lady and I had the best time getting this gorgeous hue. I truly had such a fun day with her, I think I'm getting spoiled with all the best clients 🤭

Hey Pals, did somebody say Christmas?🎄
Mane Institute sure did! 🎅 They threw us an AMAZING Christmas party on Tuesday. Started off with watching the Grinch, so I decided to get a bit more braiding practice in 🤭
Hats off to Mane's whole team (and moms!) for working incredibly hard to give us all the time to celebrate together with incredible food, crazy scavenger hunts, and treats for the utmost of festive spirits! 💚♥️🤍

MY MOM LET ME cut her hair!!! 😮
She's taking a journey into embracing her silver. A few more trims, and we will have reached her goal! I love any chance to spoil my mom, and this haircut is sassy and fun, just like her!
Just look at how cute she is 🥹🩷

A fresh trim just because! There is truly no better feeling than that 😌🩷

Hey Pals!
I've officially started clients today!
The first photo is a 0° trim for one of my girlies in aesthetics, and the second photo is a 180° s**g touch-up for my first ever hair client!
To say I was nervous would be an understatement, but we had a great time, and she left feeling fabulous! I couldn't have asked for a better first guest to sit in my chair. 😌
Stay tuned, I'll be posting the school's price list and my schedule this weekend for those of you interested in booking with me. 😁🩷

Hey Pals!
Today, I finished the dry 0° cut with my shears! I live for a crispy line, so you know I was cutting the tiniest hairs for ages 😂
Next, I did a 180° point cut. Got Sarah here looking very classy.
After that, I gave Brittney some curls to finish off the day.
I'm exhausted but feeling pretty proud of myself 🥰🩷
Now I sleep and do it all again tomorrow! 😍

Pals, l wanted to introduce you to Sarah, the cutting mannequin! 💇♀️ Her and I are gonna be besties until she's bald. 🤭
Yesterday, I gave Sarah a wet 0° haircut (also known as a blunt cut) with my shears.
Today, I did the same haircut with my straight razor, and this was the result!
I am midway through a dry 0° haircut on Sarah and will be posting the results tomorrow - stay tuned! 😍

Welcome back, Pals! If you thought disappeared... Surprise! Now I'm a hair student! ✂️🤭
I took the first couple of weeks to settle into my classes and pick up some skills. Now, I'm ready to share this part of my journey with all of you. 🩷 I will be updating you more regularly now with my progress as I go.
I begin booking clients starting mid-October leading into November. So, if you need your ends trimmed, colour retouched, a fresh cut, a style, or even a completely new look, send me a message, and I'll get you booked in with me! 😁
I'm so happy to be back at it, and I can't wait to see you in my chair!
(P.S. these are some photos of my first ever hair achievements so far 🥰)

Hey Pals! Gonna miss doing this every day 😔🩷
Today was the last day of my nail program, so of course, the last set *had* to be glittered to the max!
Stay tuned, though. Another journey is in the works, and I can't wait to share it with you all very soon! 🤭
I am endlessly grateful for all my amazing friends and family for coming in, modelling for me, and trusting me to take care of their nails. It truly means the world to me to have such an overwhelming amount of support while I try out a new path in life.
If you've followed along, cheered me on, modelled for me (quite literally for an entire day sometimes), lended an ear or a bottle of polish, from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU! 😍
I couldn't do this without the support of all of you lifting me up. I feel really happy with this place in my life, and I can't wait to take you all on my next adventure!
I'm now taking a break to enjoy the last of the summer and will be back to update you all soon! 🫶🎀
Ta-ta for now, Pals! 🩷

Hey Pals!
I know, I know, I disappeared for a little bit, it's exam crunch time! 💯📝
I'll be trying to post a bit more regularly soon 🩷
That said, I got to do an adorable sunflower & bee set the other day for one of my biggest supporters!🌻🐝
She's come in for me a bunch and has gotten to watch me grow. I am endlessly thankful for her offering me her nails and letting me try new products & techniques on her 🥰
This gorgeous green colour is "5th Avenue" by LacIt! 🍏
