I have been REALLY MIA on my business platform 🫪
Popping in with this gorgeous violet hair color I did last week 💜

My schedule has truly been jam packed, and I could not be more grateful 🥹 that being said, I have found it more difficult to keep up with texts about appointments, which is why I have finally…drum roll pleaseeeeee

SET UP ONLINE BOOKING 🥳🥳🥳

What does this look like?
-I will be sharing my booking link in this post, and it can also be found in my bio!
-I currently have two services listed, a haircut set for a 1 hour appointment, and a custom color set for a 4 hour appointment. I have done it this way to still have a bit more control over scheduling and making sure everyone who books has a long enough appointment time blocked off.
-Upon booking a request will be sent to me for approval. APPOINTMENTS ARE NOT SET IN STONE UNTIL APPROVED. You will receive an approval text once it has been accepted. You will then receive a text leading up to your appointment asking you to confirm your appointment, this lets me know you got the reminder text and you will be showing up to your appointment.
-If for any reason you need to reschedule, you must do it AT LEAST 24 HOURS BEFORE your appointment or a $20 fee will be charged to the card on file. Card info will be submitted at the time of booking your appointment.

This will be an adjustment for me, as I have had ALL control of booking for the last 3 years, but I am in a chapter of life where focusing on things outside of my business are a priority and the first step in doing so is letting go of the stress of having unread messages for appointments piling up.

I know school is starting mid August, and I truly have very minimal availability in August and into September. If you are in need of an appointment please take a look at my availability on my booking site 🫶🏼

Megan Does Pretty Hair has invited you to book your next appointment on their booking site.

•love is in the hair•

As February is approaching I want to remind everyone how important self care is. Yes Valentine’s Day is about love, but what about self love? When is the last time you poured back into your own cup?

Sometimes I think we feel selfish for booking that appointment, right? It feels like “but I could be using that money for X Y and Z” and it’s true, but sometimes I think we forget it’s okay to be selfish for a minute if it means we will feel better after. The saying “you can’t pour from an empty cup” is cliche but so true, and if booking that appointment pours back into your cup, you have more to give to those around you. Feeling like your best self makes a huge difference in how you show up in other parts of your life, and sometimes having pretty hair helps you feel like your best self 💁🏻‍♀️

In the month of February I am doing a raffle for a full size shampoo and conditioner! The rules are as usual, a cut is one entry, a color is two entries! I will also be offering a glass of bubbly to enjoy during your appointment! 🍾🥂 we like to keep it romantic around here 🤭

February is a special month because it is the month I got my license in 2014, which means I have been licensed for 12 years 🥹 and although I wasn’t behind the chair for all 12 years I’ve been licensed, it almost feels extra special because I chose to continue to renew my license even though I wasn’t sure I would ever find my way back to doing hair. My passion for this industry truly grows more everyday and I couldn’t be more grateful I found my way back to what I love most.

I have truly been the worst about getting back to texts. I’ve been beating myself up over it, but my personal life has truly been upside down and I have found it difficult to respond even when I do have down time, I feel guilty because I want my clients to feel like a priority and I feel I have been slacking in that department. I am grateful to have such understanding clients, but I will be trying harder to respond in a more timely manner 🖤

I have availability left for the month of February, so don’t wait to book, and pour back into yourself during the month of love!

She hadn’t had her hair done since before her wedding in June 😱

In the new year I’m looking to change up my content and share more than just photos of my work! After a week off it felt good to get my hands on some hair today. I don’t typically work/ post on Sundays but I couldn’t wait to share!

In May it will be two years of being back behind the chair! I can’t believe that much time has already passed. The gratitude I have for each person who has sat in my chair over the last year and a half will never be able to be expressed fully.

In the next year I promise to continue to grow my skill set so I can continue to grow as a stylist and provide the best service possible for each guest.

At this point in time it is very unlikely to request an appointment and get on my books in the same month. I am typically booking at least a month-a month and a half out, so keep that in mind when reaching out for an appointment! I wanted to switch to fully online booking, but I think I am still just more comfortable with receiving text and setting up appointments for my guests. It just ensures enough time is booked off and the right service is being booked if it’s done directly by me!

My prices did increase as of the 1st of the month by $5! I have gotten a lot of feedback from clients letting me know they don’t feel that is enough, which is such a compliment, however, I pride myself on being able to be fit into my clients budgets 🫶🏻

My personal life has been really crazy recently, therefore my mental health hasn’t been the greatest, and I just like to keep it 💯 round here. Because of that, I have been absolutely terrible about responding to text messages 😞 If you have reached out either before the holiday or after and haven’t heard from me, I promise I will return your messages tomorrow! 🫶🏻

This client has been doing a level 1 blue black for as long as she’s been with me, she finally said heck it, let’s start going lighter. For a first time lift on black hair, this was a gorgeous result!

•Gingerbread•

My girl doesn’t get her hair done very often, so prior to this appointment we had done a subtle lived in bronde, but she was ready to change it up, but not do anything to drastic! She sent me some inspiration pictures and we found a happy medium!

I’ve loved playing around with my ring light to get some different pictures of my work!

•Tis the season•

Boy oh boy I think this is the worst I’ve been about posting to my business page 😔
Life has been CRAZY! December is always the absolute craziest month in the salon.
I’ve been so incredibly blessed with the best clients, and to show my appreciation, every client has walked out the door with a travel size shampoo and conditioner!

January is filling up FAST so please reach out ASAP for an appointment. I want to remind everyone that as of January first all of my prices will be increasing by $5. I strive to make getting your hair done affordable and easy to fit into your budget.

Keep your eyes open for a couple of pictures of some hair I’ve done recently! I finally set up my ring light (that I’ve had for almost a year) and the pictures I’ve gotten are 🔥

Merry Christmas to all of my beautiful clients, your business is everything to me 🫶🏻
