Today’s term is BOUNCY
/ˈboun(t)sē/
Bouncy is an adjective that describes something able to spring back after hitting a surface, or a person who is full of lively energy both of which apply to the photo above 😉➰💋
come let me show you the layered haircut of your dreams 🌙☁️
If you saw my story yesterday, you know I was trying out a new keratin smoothing treatment on myself & color me quite impressed. A formaldehyde, paraben, phthalate & steam free treatment meant for smoothing frizzy, unruly hair.

sometimes you just need a fresh breath of dimension 🤎
I’ve been doing hair for 5 years. I started cosmetology school at 27 and it was so scary to join a new career, try something I always wanted to do but had no clue what I was in for. I’m 33 now and i wouldn’t change a thing. It was terrifying to meet new people, to put myself out there, to learn it’s ok to not know everything right away, to fake it til you make it. Things take time, good news is… time passes anyways 🤍

in the salon lately...

U P D A T E S 🪩 When my previous salon shut down & I had a month to find somewhere to go, I knew deciding to move out on my own was a huge leap. I wasn’t sure if it was for the long term, if I was gonna survive it, if I was cut out to be here on my own. Although I loved what I had put together on short notice, I’m much more comfortable & established so it’s been a year of upgrades!
It started with a new chair, adding a tv & now it was time to create a warmer, sleeker, more cohesive environment for us to be in together. ✨ I still have a few things planned but in the meantime, thanks to y’all I am able to be here, working with you to create the hair of your dreams. (we can also yap, watch movies & shows together or just enjoy each others quiet time!)
Come see me, check out the updated space & let’s catch up! 🤍
