Caught myself wishing for snow⛄️, when I came across this snowy white blonde hue on one of my blondies.
Who else wants snow this year?! 🙋‍♀️☃️☃️🌨️

✨Please feel free to reach out to me with any inquiries or requests at any point as they come to you, however, there will just be a delay in my response time until January 3rd when I return.

✨ Color AND haircut correction on this sweet client from Baltimore!✨
This client had moved out of town and I hadn’t seen her in years. Recently she had a negative experience with her hair, resulting in an uneven cut color that was left a bit too brassy.
After coming to see me all the way from Baltimore, I was able to correct her haircut and her color with a careful balayage application and precision cutting and texturizing. Now her hair is back to the way we used to do it and still healthy and strong!

Comment “me!” below if you’ve ever gone from a dark hue to a blonde one with me!
✨You’d never believe I had this beauty’s hair bright plum red just months ago! Gradually and as gently as possible, I’m currently taking her ashy, she’s almost there. Next session…babylights 🤩

LIGHTING. IS. EVERYTHING.
⭐️Photo on left is bathroom lighting with no natural sunlight
⭐️Photo on the right is in filtered natural light.
⭐️These photos were taken seconds apart, with the same phone, same settings, and no filters.
Look how much warmer my hair looks in the left (bathroom lighting) photo, vs the right (natural lighting) photo! Look at how much brighter and more clear my face looks in the natural light vs the bathroom light, and look at how much more clearly you can actually see my makeup application!
⭐️Filtered, natural light shows the tones in their truest hue
‼️Never judge a hue or look based on bathroom lighting, regardless of the bulbs you use, ESPECIALLY if there is no natural light source in your bathroom.

Natalie just shampooed, blowdried and styled my hair from start to finish and did an amazing job. This was only her SECOND time shampooing and her THIRD time curling and she nailed it. She had me passing out in the shampoo chair during the scalp massage.
So proud of her and excited for you all! 💛

Swipe to see her before pics. Such a fun transformation 🥰

Gave my assistant a new look, what do you think of the pink pops?

Save this post if you want this rich, dimensional, toffee blonde for the fall/holiday season! 😍
I hand painted balayage highlights and lowlighted for depth and warmth to create this hue. Then I finished with a big haircut and lovely, soft waves 💛

I absolutely LOVE to see the looks I create on my beautiful clients outside of the salon. ✨Part of the many elements of what I strive to do for my clients is to ensure their color looks good even in motion, even when they run their hands through it and move it so it lays differently than when I styled it, even when they switch up their part.
No cutting corners. Do what toy love and love to do it right 💛

I live for creating these transformations 🤩. Love love love high contrast before and after shots. This is babylights and a shadow root 💛

Hi, can we please talk about this rose gold transformation I did last week? Because I’m admittedly a bit obsessed with it 🤩.
I applied a color retouch to blend some grays at the root, retouched her balayage and then glazed her with this Rosegold hue and it’s one of my favorite looks as of late. 💛

A new platinum blondie is born 💛This was in dim, evening lighting, but even then the difference is🤩🤩 Be sure to swipe to see her full transformation!

I just love a soft, loved in money piece. Sometimes a little brightness around the face is all you need 💛

Sometimes less is more when it’s your first ever highlight service 💛.
Partial balayage to create a warm, natural sun kissed look on this sweet client for her first time ever lightening her hair.

And a new platinum blondie is born!
✨This was one session!
And what a transformation it was!
This type of transformation can’t always be achieved in one session, but in her case it was achievable because she had completely virgin hair!
I love a good platinum before and after 🤩

I was shampooing this beautiful clients daughter and I looked up and realized how comfortable she was just sitting back with her fries 🍟 chatting with her daughter. I realized this image as a perfect representation of the experience I love to provide to my clients during their services. I want you to enjoy more than just the results of your hair. I want you to put your feet up and relax, chill with good conversation, decompress from all the stress and busyness, enjoy a meal while you process before you lay back in my shiatsu massaging shampoo chair and get your scalp massage. All right before you leave my chair with a new look and feeling completely renewed and confident. This is what I want for you when you come sit in my chair. It’s about so much more than just the hair. I love what I do. And I love my clients💛.
✨ Stay tuned for her daughters incredible rose gold transformation 🤩

This is my idea of the perfect beachy blonde for summer! What do you think?
I applied a traditional partial foil highlight to add brightness and maintain dimension and cut about 4” of length off.

Transformation 💛 Be sure to swipe to see her before pictures. Such a big change and it was so much fun to create 🥰

Happy anniversary to quite literally the man of my dreams. Celebrating 4 years married today, only these days we get to celebrate with our little Mase. What a dream.
✨Actively living my happily ever after 💛

SWIPE to see her very first service with me, 2 years ago! The grayscale photo is a teaser of how blonde I got her today! ❓Want me to post the reveal? ‼️Let me know in the comments and I may reveal it sooner 😉 !

Her first service was a color correction, I had to make minor little changes gradually over time in order to be as gentle as possible on her vulnerable hair. Today, she’s is BRIGHT BLONDE. 🤩🌅

I simply couldn’t pick just one. Today I applied a hairline retouch for soft gray coverage and a partial balayage to create this look. This beauty is summer ready 💛🌅

A pop of bright blonde around the face and bright ribbons of dimensional balayage throughout the rest. This is

🌅Photographing the hues I create in the natural light is my new favorite thing 💛
A heavy application of babylights is what creates this bright blonde 🥰
