It’s never just a hair appointment.
its catching up, laughing, venting, and leaving feeling like your best self.
And that’s my favorite part.
She was craving a big chop. I was happy to remove some weight off her shoulders 😉
Love a good haircut transformation 😍

How many years experience do I have doing bridal? 👰🏻‍♀️ 12 years and counting! 9 years ago, I had the pleasure of doing this beautiful bride's hair and makeup for her wedding day. I remember the lovely energy that morning, getting her and her bridal party ready. It's been amazing watching her grow from a bride to a wife, a successful career woman, and a mom of three 😇. Her union has been a blessed one, full of love 💗. Happy 9th anniversary, .ruz! Wishing your marriage and family continued prosperity and love. Thanks for being a client 🫶🏼 ☺️

One client, two afters 🫣
Long story short… I don’t always get it quite right the 1st time. Doesn’t happen that often, but it does happen. Wanna know more? Continued reading

This lovely client here came in ready and determined for a whole new look. I felt I understood the assignment, I was excited and anxious to do my magic 🪄
Well, turns out the color wasn’t quite what she had in mind.
She was graceful enough to voice her concern and opinion once finished. I offered she take another look the next day or two, see if she felt any different. If she wasn’t entirely happy to please let me know ASAP so I could get her in again with in the week and see what I could do to adjust the color to her satisfaction.
She gracefully accepted and after wearing her new hair, she reached back again and allow me to redeem myself 🙈☺️
We discussed a bit further on her second visit and came to a mutual agreement and solution. I proceeded to adjust her color to a more dark red shade as shown on the second after and final pic on this slide 😊 she was happy and I was thankful for her kindness and understanding.

I pride myself in delivering desired end result based on my clients inspo pics, lifestyles and budget. I value both yours and my time. A lot of these hair transformations are time consuming and expensive. So delivering beautiful and satisfying end results each time is always my goal. But as you can see every once in a while I do drop the ball. So when a client is kind enough, respectful and honest with me I take this as a learning lesson to reflect on what I could have done different. What better questions to ask. And if I can or cannot do something for this client right after.

Hope this gives some insight on how I operate in these occasional instances 🫶🏼

Salon update 🤓
For those who haven’t been in the salon as of recent…
I am happy to announce that all renovation projects are complete and finished. To all the OG clients who have visited this space through the years and seen it all.
You know just how much actual work, sweat, and tears was put into this space. It finally got the TLC it always needed. But above it all, I have poured in a lot of love, intention and a huge desire to provide a space that both clients and stylist can enjoy and feel excited to be in.
At the moments she’s still a bit of a plain Jane lol 😁 my next goal is to add on some decore, and new furniture. Regardless she is fully functional, upgraded and ready to take in 4 more stylist to booth rent comfortably in this brand new space I call 🙌🏼☺️

It really truly is and feels like a whole new vibe 🤗 I feel proud, excited and motivated to continue growing and learning from whatever may come my way as a new salon owner. So please do keep me in your prayers and or good thoughts and wishes for a profitable and successful next few years to come 🙏😇 thank you and I can’t wait for everyone to come in, on their next visit and see it, and experience it for yourselves 🤗

Vanilla Ice, Ice baby! 😎
As you can see this was a full color correction.
Ever get the crazy idea of doing it yourself??? 😁 of course you do! 😜
The thing about self bleaching at home and what could go wrong?
1. Using a high developer
2. Not having the speed or technique a stylist does, therefore creating uneven lift and or over processing your hair.
3 not using a toner to balance unwanted undertones
You get the picture right 🤓

I decided to add an ash tone base color and did some highlights to brighten and break up some uneven areas. Add a toner. And of course a much needed haircut to remove damaged ends and ass shape and movement back.
End result, this beautiful vanilla blonde color 👱🏻‍♀️
