Grateful for the Journey: From Salon Owner to Solo Stylist 🌟

As I embark on this new chapter, I can't help but reflect on the incredible journey that has brought me here. From being a salon owner with a wonderful team to now being a solo stylist in my own salon suite, the transition has been both challenging and heartwarming.

I want to express my deepest gratitude to all my clients who have stood by my side through this change with kind words and congratulations. Your unwavering support and encouragement have been nothing short of amazing. Your loyalty and trust mean the world to me, and I am humbled by the support you have shown me.

Moving into my own space fills me with excitement! It's a place where I can bring my creativity and passion to life, and where I can continue to provide the personalized care and attention that each one of you deserves.

Thank you for being a part of my journey and for believing in me. I am beyond thrilled to welcome you to my new salon suite, where we can continue to create beautiful hair together. Let's make this new space a place of beauty, friendship, and unforgettable moments.

Here's to new beginnings, cherished memories, and the incredible connections we'll continue to build. I can't wait to see each and every one of you in my new space, and I'm so grateful for the support that has brought me here. 💕

Did you know that every single one of my extension installs are custom-made for each guest?

That's right, no one-size-fits-all approach. And guess what? You can wear extensions for a long term without ever damaging your hair! How, you ask? Custom placement and weight distribution! Trust me, it's key to a healthy, flawless install.

But here's the thing - I don't just throw the same amount of wefts on everyone. That's not what my clients want. They want natural-looking, discreet extensions that no one will even notice. And that's what I deliver.

Sure, any stylist can take a 6-hour class can call themselves “certified” but that won't teach them everything they need to know. That's why I keep learning and growing, to keep up with the ever-changing trends and techniques.

Don't believe me? One of my guests has super fine hair, and she's been wearing extensions for over 3 years now. Guess what? Her hair has actually grown and there's no damage in sight!

Of course, it's not just about installation. YOU need to take care of their extensions properly too. It's a team effort, but I'm here to guide you every step of the way. So, what questions do you have for me? Trust me, I've got all the answers you need!

Unleash the power of hair extensions! 💪🏼Not only do they add length, but did you know they can also give you fullness and fill in those pesky areas, like your sides? 💁🏻‍♀️Plus, add a pop of color to your mane without the commitment of dying your natural hair. Trust me, as an expert in the hair industry, I know the endless possibilities these extensions can provide.💯 Come see me and let's get creative with some hair magic! ✨

Don't be fooled 🤨- extensions aren't some kind of daily hassle! In fact, they can actually make your life way easier. Get ready to flow with the breeze and ditch your old routine. With just a quick brush and style, you'll be your best self in no time. So don't let anyone tell you otherwise - extensions are the 🔑 to living your best life.

Before and After of 2 Rows of

Annndddd… this why extensions get a bad rep!

This sweet, sweet client reached out to me after moving to the area. She had gotten one row of weft extensions (unknown method) at a salon prior to moving, of which she was having so many issues with.

She contacted me to ask if I could fix her edges to get her through and then would book a re-install in another two weeks.

What I thought was going to an “easy” adjustment was really bordering on a disaster. Over direction and pulling of her natural hair 😣 improper weight distribution of the wefts 😣 and sloppy, sagging stitching 😓

I did what I could in the time I had set aside and we booked out for two weeks.

Well she didn’t make it that long without her center back (the area I didn’t adjust) starting to bother her.

THIS IS WHEN EXTENSIONS GET A BAD REP. This client could have easily given up on them. But thanks to my extensive training with I can help (on Wednesday 🤣)!

I’ll keep you posted!

Ladies, remember that you are not just gorgeous, you are awe-inspiring. Your strength, grace, and resilience shine through in everything you do. Embrace your beauty, both inside and out, and let the world witness the incredible power that resides within you. You are truly unstoppable. 💫✨

Happy Mothers Day to all the mamas out there!!

I would love to see you this week!
