‼️Hey Y’all!‼️

The day has finally come!!!!! 🙌🏻
This is not how I had planned to spend my maternity leave but this is the hand we were all dealt, and honestly, it gave me more time at home with my little one so I definitely cannot complain!

I am SO SO excited to see all of your beautiful faces real soon! It has been FAR too long and I know you’re itching to get in ASAP. Please be patient with me while I adjust to a new schedule and a new normal.

I wanted to go over a couple of things with you all in preparation of your next appointment.

All the things 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

♥️ We found out today during the press conference that we are able to open back up starting Friday at 5 pm. Please be on the look out for my call! I will be scheduling people in order of cancellations starting from March. I cannot hold appointments so please make sure to answer when I call. I will be booking in order of calls answered. Please be patient with me! I have a lot of people to get back in and I will accommodate everyone as fast as I can!

😷 Masks must be worn during your appointment so please bring your own mask and wear it when entering the building. You can remove your mask once you are outside of the salon lofts building after your appointment.

👯‍♀️ No guests or children will be able to accompany you to your appointment. Only one client is permitted in the salon.

🌡 Please take your temperature prior to leaving your home for your appointment.

🤒 Anyone with ANY symptoms of being sick will be asked to reschedule. I will do the same.

✈️ Anyone who has traveled via airplane will not be allowed to book an appointment for 14 days after arrival back to your home.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Please trust that I have your family and my family in mind when it comes to all of our safety. I will be cleaning per protocol in between each client.

❌FOR THIS REASON - I ask that you stay in your car and text me when you have arrived. I will text back when ready, meet you at the door and walk you to where you can wash your hands. I have also stocked up on hand sanitizer for while we are in my room. Trust me - I will want to hug all of you and one day we will!! Until then air hugs and kisses. 😘

💃🏼 I cannot wait to hear all about your quarantine craziness! I love you all and you’ll be hearing from me soon.

❌PLEASE NOTE: ONE IN - ONE OUT. No exceptions!

Hey there beautiful clients! Please be on the look out for an update from me regarding the salon reopening! I am working on it now and will be updating you shortly! 🥰

Remember that post about “subtleties”?
•
Well here’s one about C O N T R A S T!
•
Contrast doesn’t necessarily mean “Kelly Clarkson circa 2003” (I mean it can if that’s what your heart desires 🤪) But today we’re here to talk about modern dimension!!
•
This beaut was ready for some pops of color for the summer. On her already dark brown hair we did a partial highlight and a toner. BOOM! Modern dimension!
•
If done correctly, you can have dark hair with light highlights. And don’t let anyone tell you otherwise! 😉

Read below for more information on this amazing service that adds volume AND length without damage and without being too high maintenance for the everyday woman.

Warning this is a lengthy post but totally worth the read! 🙌🏻

Vela Beauty Lounge is proud to offer HANDTIED WEFT EXTENSIONS!
•
I have debated on posting about this new service I’m offering for a while now.
I wanted to be SURE I was well equipped and well practiced before I REALLY offered it to my clients.
•
I needed to get a few models under my belt before I could put my name behind this method.
•
I want to be able to offer my clients the BEST customer service in Raleigh. So it’s extremely important for me to really research and educate myself before offering something completely new like this.
•
Now that I have practiced, have more knowledge and feel extremely confident in this method, I.👏🏻AM.👏🏻READY! Ready to offer this service to you ALL. Ready to make your hair dreams come true. READY to expand my skills and career. *are you as excited as I am? eeekkk!*
•
This seamless extension method is BY FAR the best I have come across. I did A LOT of research before deciding which company to get certified with. I talked with numerous other stylists and salons and ultimately decided that Babe was the way to go. This method, not only is seamless, it’s light weight, completely customizable and does NOT damage your natural hair AT ALL! To me the health of your natural hair is my number one priority. So you can understand why finding an extension company that catered to that was my goal.
•
Before I started my journey with Handtied Wefts I was doing tape in hair extensions. They had heavy points of contact causing breakage and bald patches. They would slip and fall out completely. They would get horribly tangled and matted. They were difficult for everyday tasks (washing, styling, brushing, ponytails, exercise, etc.)
•
I stopped offering them. It was too much for my nerves to handle. I wanted...... no, I NEEDED something better for my clients! After all, you beauties deserve ONLY the best!
•
So here we are! I am telling you, this method is amazing! If you’re looking for... (continued in comments)... @ Sprouts Farmers Market

Sometimes it’s just as simple as a single process color!
•
This beauty is a “low maintenance” kind of gal. This service not only gives her the flexibility to come in only every 8-10 weeks, but it also richens up her natural color while also covering her grays!!
•
Talk about a win-win!
•
Leave a ♥️ in the comments to let this babe know she’s ROCKIN it!!

If you know me well, you know that me and updos have a love/hate relationship. 😂
•
Back in March I had the absolute PLEASURE of working at wedding.
•
This is one of the updos I did that day.
•
Thanks to I have the tools, knowledge and skills to create simple yet beautiful and intricate formal looks without spending a lot of time on them. !

Subtleties.
•
Sometimes the most beautiful hair color is subtle, yet defined!
•
This beautiful bronde is giving me L.I.F.E!
•
Which do you prefer? Super contrasting colors or more subtle definition?
