Villain Salon Studio

⚡Why do I require a consultation before your first creative color appointment?

⚡Because the answer to most creative color questions is "it depends."

⚡Being able to see your hair in person and do a test strand will give me a realistic idea of what's possible for you, and what kind of color is right for your lifestyle.

⚡Q: Does cutting your hair really make it grow faster?

⚡A: It's complicated.

⚡"Is my kid old enough for your salon?"

⚡Out of respect for their privacy, I don't usually photograph any of my guests who are under 16. But that doesn't mean that they don't come to see me!

⚡I don't have a hard and fast rule about what age someone needs to be before sitting in my chair. Instead, I use these guidelines:

- Is your child old enough to have their own opinions about their hair?
- Do they have the patience to sit still for the services they want to get? (Some adults struggle with this one, too 😉)

⚡Generally speaking, if your child has CHOSEN an alternative hairstyle for themselves, they are probably old enough to sit in my chair. BUT... depending on how tall they are, you might need to bring their car booster seat into the salon with you.

⚡Got questions? You can comment on my post or email me for more information.

⚡Turn it up, Frank!

⚡Is there a treatment for split ends that really works?

⚡Yes: A haircut.

⚡Some products can seal split ends, but it's a temporary effect. Split ends have to be cut!

⚡Let's get to know each other! Here are three fun facts you might not know about me...

1. I didn't see Star Wars until I was 20. My dad was a fan, but most of the movies we had were taped off of the Disney channel. Shoutout to my college friend Cara who finally showed them to me!

2. I'm 36 years old and I do not know how to ride a bicycle.

3. If I could only watch one TV show for the rest of my life it would be... Sailor Moon! 💫

Okay, it's your turn: What's your desert island TV show? 🖤⚡

⚡Have you ever had overprocessed hair?

⚡Overprocessed hair is chemically treated hair that has been pushed past its limits. When it’s dry, overprocessed hair can feel rough, brittle, and difficult to style. When it’s wet, it can feel sticky and stretchy like chewing gum, and it breaks easily. Hair that is severely damaged will melt off in your hands when it’s wet.

⚡So what do you do?

⚡In extreme cases, overprocessed hair can’t be repaired, and the best choice is usually to cut your losses - and cut your hair. The good news is that most cases aren’t extreme.

⚡Enter our hero: The K18 Molecular Repair treatment. All K18 products work by strengthening the hair on the molecular level, and the professional treatment is the most concentrated, intensive treatment to repair damaged hair. A regimen of regular treatments and molecular home care products can stop breakage and make your hair healthy, shiny, and brushable again!

⚡FACTS.

⚡Pop Quiz: Where do you start applying your conditioner?

A: I start from the top and work down
B: I start from the ends and work up
C: I don’t use conditioner

⚡If you answered B, you’re doing it right! If you answered C, I bet you feel like conditioner weighs your hair down.

⚡But did you know you don’t need to apply your conditioner all the way to the scalp? Try using a small amount on just your ends - that way you can soften and reduce static without feeling flat.

⚡What are some of my latest faves? Here's what I can't get enough of lately:

Snacks: Accidentally-vegan girl scout cookie dupes at the grocery store - I've been finding dupes of Tagalongs and Thin Mints!

Books: I'm loving my current read, Plain Bad Heroines by Emily M. Danforth. (A recommendation from Mother Horror on TikTok)

Music: My new favorite band is CROWLEY - check them out for occult rock from the UK!

Okay, your turn - what can't you get enough of lately?

⚡️Is your hair breaking off? Here are the most common types of breakage and how to prevent them:

⚡️If you curl or straighten your hair with an iron, you might notice that your hair starts to feel brittle at the ends.

Aside from using heat protectant products when you style your hair and getting regular haircuts, a weekly hair mask with moisture and protein can help keep your hair soft and easy to style!
