✨ MEET THE SQUAD ✨
The faces behind the shades—and the energy behind the brand 📸

When we created our extension color line, we didn’t just name shades…
we bottled up whole vibes.

👑 Rebekah in Iced Lemon Cake — soft, radiant, and made to shine
🖤 Sav in Midnight Sun — deep, mysterious, and the definition of main character- DON'T WE KNOW IT!
🍫 Dax in Sea Salted Caramel — warm, rich, and full of dimension
🥥 Allie in Toasted Coconut — light, creamy, and beach babe approved
☕️ Jillian in Espresso Martini — bold, smooth, and effortlessly luxe

From buttery blondes to moody brunettes—we made sure there’s a Mane Method shade that matches your energy.

📲 Tell us in the comments:
Which extension shade is your next inspo?

Are you a Vanilla Cake Pop girlie or more of a Honey Nut Cracker vibe?

Let the obsession begin 🫶

Things no one told me before starting my career as a hairstylist....

No one told me that I’d question myself 100 times over… wondering if I was cut out for this.
That I’d sit in the back room between clients, googling “what to do when a client hates their hair .”

That I’d drive home with swollen feet at 40weeks and 4 days pregnant still working, messy hair, and a heart that felt both full and completely overwhelmed.

No one warned me how heavy it can feel to carry everyone’s stories…
The breakups, the grief, the postpartum shifts, the silent struggles—
And somehow still be the one who brings the light.

But… no one told me the good stuff either.
And maybe I’m glad they didn’t.
Because I got to discover the magic on my own.

Like how a pair of shears and a salon chair would become the place where transformation happens. Or as I also say, my ministry.

Where people walk in heavy and leave lighter—because of something you did.
How one “just a trim” client could turn into a forever friend.

How your tiny space behind the chair would become a safe place for others.
And how, somewhere along the way, it became your safe place too.

They didn’t tell me that I’d fall in love with this career 1,000 times over.
That I’d look back and barely recognize the girl who was scared to charge more than $100 because being a hairstylist "isn't a real career"... HA!

That I’d grow something so beautiful out of the messy middle.

So if you’re in your “what the heck am I doing?” season—
I see you. And I swear it gets better.
Not easier. But deeper. More meaningful. More you.

I wouldn’t trade this journey for anything.

Every mistake, every late night, every tiny win—it was all worth it. Ignore in school , see it through. Find a mentor.

And if you're seasoned, don't quit on your dream. You're worth too much and hold too much value here.

And the best part?
You’re just getting started. 🤍

BRONDE + boujee ✨

This definitely feels like the IT color this season and I've been LOVING IT! I have quite a few blondie blondes that have transitioned to bronde in the fall before my maternity leave + coming back they loved it so much it stayed! Many times you just gotta try something new and commit to it 💪🏻 your hairstylist being gone helps ;)

Not sure if cool or warm colors look best? Bright blonde or brunette? Well we got goodies for you as I'll be hosting a class this fall with for us hairstylists to be able to not only color match you to what fits your features best, but then also help you with your clothing colors that accentuate the natural beauty you already have!

Don't be afraid to switch it up! But Stay tuned! 🖤

Brand new to the TMF experience? 🌼

Balayage hair color transformation blonding bronde

The reason your extensions are turning orange this summer? 😱 It might be your sunscreen...
⁠
Most people don’t know this — but chemical sunscreens you use in your body with avobenzone or octocrylene can react with blonde extensions and cause that peachy, brassy tone no one asked for 🫠
⁠
✨ The fix? Use mineral sunscreens only — look for zinc oxide or titanium dioxide and skip the chemical stuff.
⁠
My faves for the hair:
💨 Sun Bum Scalp & Hair Mist
🌿 COOLA Organic Hair Mist
🌸 UNITE 7 seconds detangle spray on your hair BEFORE you step outside to protect from UV rays ☀️

Also a shower head filter is KEYYYYYY to keeping them fresh, detoxed, and chemical free! I'll link it in my amazon store!

Extensions are an investment — protect them like your skin 💁🏼‍♀️
