Which one of these do you feel the most?

What are the 3 hardest decisions you will make about your hair?

Which color?
Which hairstyle?
Highlights?
Which products to use?

No.

The three hardest decisions around your hair are:

1) Should I wait to get the style and color I want?

If you know your hair is damaged, thinning, and just not looking healthy, choosing to wait until you have it in a better state, is hard. It doesn't have to mean having hair that looks bad in the meanwhile. But it may mean adding chemicals may not be the best option right now.
It may mean that trying to grow it long, may require some hair restructuring.
Or it may mean you need to look at medication, health, lifestyle etc. that is effecting your hair.

2). Should I get it cut

This isn't about a simple haircut or even changing from long to short hair because a. pixie sounds cute and fun. It's about choosing healthy hair over damaged ends. Choosing to give your hair a fresh start without the baggage of damage so it can grow better, stronger and healthier.

3) Changing hairdressers.

Many of you know staying with the same hairdresser who while being a nice person, perhaps isn't giving you the treatment you need is hard to do. Even worse, is going from hairdresser to hairdresser because no one seems to "get you" and your hair. I know many of you have come from that place. Continuing to try and find someone, feels disheartening, frustrating and an endless pursuit.

Give yourself some time. Take a break if you must, but keep trying. When you find the right one for you...It will be life changing!

With all the wonderful things Autumn brings, apparently the start of longer locks belongs on that list!

Yes, in Autumn and Winter, women tend to let their hair grow...and want less hair routine.

Why is this?

For starters, longer hair makes for an excellent "natural scarf" and body heat insulation from cooler and windier weather.

Longer hair looks great with sweaters, higher collars, scarves, hats, etc.

Easier to hide hair transitions of growth, color/highlights, or wanting a new style and need more length.

Also, there's the summer healing from sun, chlorine and products.

As for less demanding hair care? Balancing children in school, weather challenges, holidays, and just that overall winter slump... we all want easier routines.

If this is you, and you plan on growing out your hair, you may need a new hair routine to keep those strands strong and moisturized through the dry, winter months.

Tell me your plans , we'll develop a low maintenance but effective care routine for the newly acquired long locks.

Catching split ends early matters!

Most of know the signs of splits ends. Hair becomes drier and frizzy. Maybe the color lightens from dryness. We find little pieces of hair strands on the bathroom sink.

But in some cases that is just the beginning....and when you need to take action.

Don't ignore those signs. They are telling you that your hair is getting weaker. It needs nourishment, less chemicals, less heat, less being tied up in a ponytail or bun.

Waiting can cost you hair length, hair growth and even hair loss.

The only treatment to stop split ends is to cut the hair. Everything else, can buy you time by slowing the split but it won't stop it.

As a hairdresser I will talk with you to identify the possible causes:
Heat
Chemicals
Products
Scalp health
Hair routines

And then we will work out a plan to bring health back to your hair. But cutting your hair will still be part of the plan.

We can cut it in stages and build up your hair in the meanwhile.

Or we can just dive in and create a cut that gets rid of all of it. Depends on the damage and cause.

But the key is together WE will develop a plan to get your hair back to it's healthy beauty! You won't be in it alone and I won't push something drastic you aren't ready for.

The weather is cooling so I am hopeful that bringing in my fall theme on the patio shall persist! Bring on sweaters, pumpkin spice, apple c***r, hot chocolate...and vibrant rich hair colors!

What's great about fall, is that hair color inspiration blooms around us. Flowers, changing leaves, pumpkins... Which color calls to you? Or maybe, opt for a blend of colors? The PB&J trio of colors is great for fall and can really be a great look!

Anti-"tame your hair" energy is what this project and Texturology is all about! And that fits great with the GenX attitude so of course I went there.

Big hair, bold hair, sleek hair, wild hair... the point was presence. Your hair gets to take up space without apology.

I think we could use a bit of that energy now.

so I am playing around with creating this tshirt line. Different textures, same attitude. They are still in the making so would love your thoughts.

Which one would you wear?
